Summary

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE!

The Salem Witch Board Museum in Salem, Massachusetts, is the world's ONLY Ouija museum. Curated and owned by John Kozik, the museum boasts a personal collection of around 100 Ouija boards on display at any given time. As a founding member of the Talking Board Historical Society, Kozik and his fellow enthusiasts are dedicated to preserving and unraveling the Ouija board's mysteries. From personal collections to donated artifacts, each item within the museum holds a story waiting to be told.

Is the Ouija board simply an icon of entertainment, or does it serve as a portal to the beyond for some? Has Hollywood unfairly tarnished its reputation with dark tales, or does it wield genuine power? Can something as innocuous as wood, cardboard, and plastic harbor malevolent forces?

Today on The Grave Talks, we discuss talking boards with John Kozik, the owner of the Salem Witch Board Museum. This is Part Two of our conversation.
