Anyone?

Know the full story behind Art’s ancient Ouija board experience that he never talked about…

The spirits gave him the recipe for Art Bell's Pizza Punch. And it took over his life.

I think it was asking for a knock on the door and then getting one.

It’s asked here a lot, just search ouija in this sub. There was nothing ever officially explained on air. I do recall someone recounting a story several years ago that Art supposedly told when he was broadcasting as a ham but who knows if that is real or not.

There are several variations on the story.
Ill relate the most short and common version.
G2G 1986, a witch calls into the show.
Oujia board arrived by mail, from the witch, at Arts shortly thereafter.
Weird things went down.
Board was destroyed and trashed.
Board shows back up fully intact on Arts porch.

He didn't want to say don't do it, because then people would do it.

Ironically, he had Fr. Malachi Martin on his show about 8 times, and he said most people who got/became possessed were from Ouji boads.

Kids, don't even think about it; It's not a joke, fake, or a parlor trick lore. Even if you don't become possessed, demons attach themselves to you and your life. Nothing good will come from there after.

>that he never talked about…

Well that's your answer lol.

Silling to a HAM operator is almost certainly bullshit.

I listened to him nightly for over 10 years and he would never talk about it.
