I am currently 19 years old. The following supernatural occurrences happened around two years ago. In this story, I will be referred to as Liam. I will not specify where the following events occurred, but I will say this; my nightmare demonic attack did occur in the USA. It all started when my friends and I were using a Ouija board; a nightmarish demonic portal that anybody should think more than twice about before using it. My four friends; whom I shall refer to as Chris, John, Jack and Paul, were equally horrified and emotionally traumatized as I was.
I shall begin at John’s apartment. It was around 22:30, when after much debate, we decided to hold a seance. After an equal amount of debate and discussion, we decided that since we were his guests, John was to be the medium. We had a Ouija board but no planchette. This matter was easily overcome, since John was able to provide us with a large whiskey glass. For added effect we turned off all the lights and lit some candles. To my surprise, we all got into it.
We started with John asking, “If there is any spirit or presence in this apartment, please move the glass.” Now you must remember that we didn’t expect this to work, so we were all pretty shocked by this. Because the glass did indeed move. We all gazed into one another’s eyes in complete awe and fright. We carried on. “Would you be able to spell your name for us, please?” asked John. The glass started to move.
C-E-R-T-A-I-N-L-Y, it had spelled.
“And what is your name?”
I-L-K-E-R-L.
“Ilkerl?” I said. “Isn’t it obvious?”, said Paul, “It’s an anagram for killer.” We all passed a glance at each other in worry and disbelief. We couldn’t believe what was happening. “Should we carry on?” asked Jack. “Maybe…” Chris replied.
We all put the session on hold for a few minutes. We were quite puzzled on what to do. We all wanted to return to the séance but we felt worried about the consequences. Because of this, we all discussed with each other on what we knew about Ouija boards, séances and spiritual presences.
“Well, I did hear that if you hold a séance, you should start with an opening prayer for extra protection.” Jack said. I also added some vital information, “Apparently, if the presence starts to talk about a portal, then the session should be ended immediately. It said on this website that portals are how demons can enter our world. Also, to end the session we have to move the glass to the goodbye sign on the board. After that, for extra protection we should end with a prayer; most preferably the ‘Our Father’, the most powerful prayer.” I said. “And we should always end with ‘In Jesus name, Amen’” Chris had implied. Then Paul stated a very important truth, “Nobody is to challenge the presence. If somebody does, then all Hell could break loose – Literally.” After all of us had agreed on these terms, we restarted the session.
“If Ilkerl is still here could they please make a sign?” asked John. “Ow!” shouted Chris. “What is it?” We asked. Chris had told us that he felt as if he had been slapped around his right cheek. I felt a sudden tinge of fear for this unexpected surprise ‘attack’. We assumed that this was the sign, and therefore we carried on. “Why did you hit Chris?” asked John.
B-E-C-A-U-S-E I D-O-N-T L-I-K-E H-I-M
“Why don’t you like him?”
I D-O N-O-T L-I-K-E H-I-M B-E-C-A-U-S-E H-E I-S A T-W-A-T
Chris merely laughed this off, assuming that this was a joke. But it was after this that things started to get intense. “Are you a ghost?” asked John.
N-O
“Then what are you?”
E-L P-E-N-U-M-B-R-A
The room went freezing. We knew that by referring to itself as ‘El Penumbra’, it was telling us that this was no ordinary spirit, but a Demon.
“El Penumbra? A Demon! Ilkerl, are you a Demon?” John asked.
Y-E-S. N-O-W D-I-E
After this, the room got even colder. “Oh my God.” said Paul. Then we all noticed that blood was trickling from John’s mouth. We had been filled with a new terror. We had been filled with a fear. A fear of death. We were so worried that we almost forgot that our arms were being moved around by the glass. To our horror we saw the dreaded word.
P-O-R-T-A-L P-O-R-T-A-L P-O-R-T-A-L P-O-R-T-A-L P-O-R-T-A-L P-O-R-T-A-L P-O-R-T-A-L
We all struggled to move the glass to the goodbye sign. After that, the glass was knocked onto the floor by an unseen force. Then, we all recited the ‘Our Father’ and finished with Chris’s suggestion, ‘In Jesus name, Amen’.
We hurried to the light switches, and flicked them on. Honestly, once those lights were turned on, I felt a million times better. John got us all a can of beer. Jokingly, he said, “None for you, Ilkerl!” We all laughed at this antic. None of us really wanted to leave John by his self, so we all stayed for the night. That was when we all had the dream.
A few hours later we all managed to drink ourselves to sleep. A nightmare came to haunt me. I woke up in a large, rectangular room. I had woken up in a circle of dim light. The rest of the room was shrouded in a black, smoke like mist. Suddenly, I heard many high pitched whispers. The whispers became voices and the voices became screams. The words never changed, those terrible words, “We’re going to get you…” Then hundreds of corpse like arms with taloned hands protruded the mist. I never saw who or what the arms belonged to, but I was guessing that this was Ilkerl. I could do nothing to escape this nightmare because I was paralyzed. The mist closed in on me and so did the arms. My throat was too dry for a scream; instead it let out an inaudible cough. Then the arms grabbed. It was only after this that I woke up.

would you care to listen? it happened to a member of my family my mother told it to me year’s ago.
sure i’d like to hear it
alright. well it happened in what i think was the late 70’s so if it’s not accurate i’m sorry. my mother said it happened to my great uncle’s marty and james, my little brother is named after james. my great grandmother bought a house in carnege oklahoma, and that’s when weird thing’s came about. first my uncle marty started to talk to a white owl, he would speak to it and it whould listen and reply with a yes or a no until my youngest uncle heard marty in his room and decided to see what he was doing. when he entered the room the owl flew away and marty was angriy with him for a while, well if you don’t know in native american culture a white owl is an omen of death. well a week later while my grandma and uncles where eating in the kitchen with the back door open to feel the breeze come through, a few minute’s later is when rock’s started to fly through the screen door, whats weird about it is that the rocks didn’t rip the screen on the door at all, and the rock’s where solid, so after a few rocks flew in my uncle james picked up a few of them and chucked them out the window, then the rock’s stopped, my uncle marty looked outside and walk around and saw nobody around which is really weird because they lived in the rural parts of carnege. a few day’s later my grandma went out grocerie shopping when a friend of her’s told her that her house was on fire, the fire department said that my uncle’s had a couple of comic book’s to close to an in door heater, which caused the fire , both my uncle’s are now buried in my family cemetary, but the weirdest thing about the storie is what my grandma discovered after she moved, she found out that every house that has ever been built on that same plot of land has caught fire and burned to the ground with at least 2 to 3 people in it. i hope you liked it, it was a long time ago so i might have forgotten some thing’s.
wow, that was interesting, that’s strang about those rocks flying in the window, I wonder what that was about! Who are some of the demons in Native American culture?
i don’t really know too much about demon’s, except a few demon’s in other cultures. but i do know a few thing’s about creatures in my culture.
You said that you’re fro oklahoma, my mom has a friend from there who is a Lakota Indian.

alright i’ll be sure to add it to my friend’s list, and that’s awesome, if i’m ever there i’ll be sure to visit.
Wow, interesting reading. I’ve had some experiences with the ouija board and I was very lucky not to encounter a demon. My most memorable encounter was with a spirit named “Rusty Riddle”..it was more somber than alarming. Rusty was an acquaintance of mine who had commited suicide in “G Hall” of my high school, needless to say, that is where our seance took place. He left behind so many friends and our goal was to get some answers to the questions we had. And we got them. My NUMBER ONE personal rule when it comes to the ouija board is NOT to use it in my home or in the home of any of my loved ones. You could put so many people at risk in doing so. And as it’s been said before with this as well as so many other dangerous acts, ALWAYz be prepared! If you get in over your head, contact someone who knows more about it than you do, don’t try to take matters into your own hands.
Hey, Mike.D I need to hear another story!! My firend Kathrine has Native American, and when I go to her grandma’s over the summer, she tells us alot of stories. btw ElQueLlora, I need to tell you that I too have contacted your demon aswell. My brother Kain has had these dreams. He’s only 12 and he and his friends once took it and toyed around with it when they were staying at my house. Mike, you’re only eighteen! Don’t wish you’re older, because years from now, you’ll look back and wish that such youth was swept away and how life changed so drastically! Please promise me Mike that you’ll live life to it’s fullest and enjoy your young age as it is
I need to hear your story, because the place where your grandma lived, my aunt and her two kids lived. It was rather tragic, because my two cousins (Jaunita and Alvaro) at the age of 13 and 18 were killed in a bad fire started by two vanilla scented candels I gave Jaunita for her thirteenth birthday. I am telling you Mike that you should wish to stay young, because Alavaro who was your age died wishing that he could support my aunt after his father Ignacio was killed in a car accident. I will share some of my abuela Iyana’s stories.
please respond~ I would enjoy the company.
You should post more. My friend said that he talked to something called ILKERL last night.
yikes, i’ve had scarry experinces, but not like this one
1. i do not believe this story, no offense
keep up the good writing!
why would you have to keep writing the story in different comments? if it were true, you would just have to put the story all in your first comment.
2. i think you are a REALLY good writer, even though i dont believe this story in particular
3. if you did make this up, you should really think about writing more ghost stories because i think they would interest a lot of people
Ouija, for the person who asked, is the association of the french and german “yes” : Oui-ja.
I’m envious, i’d like to be able to write sth like this coz i’m an aspiring writer, and what’s more, i’d love to one day write a screenplay. Awesome story
The story is ok, it seems questionable due to someone obviously knowing that Ilkerl is killer. But that is not a demonic name. Also if I’m not mistaken you mention Legion which *IS* a demonic name if you’re a christian (Legion is another name for Satan).
But the validity of the story is irrelevent, it would be intereting to read more abou it.
Finally burning the oujia (please people spell it right) board is not going to release a demon into our world, never has and never will. The board ISNT the conduit from their world into ours, we are that conduit. The board only gives us a focal point to direct our desires. The board itself does nothing, has no power, is not a portal to hell. People give it temporary power when they use it.
Is using the board bad?? If you’re stupid enough to call something you cannot handle then yes, but it’s no more dangerous than using a gun. A gun is safe in the hands of someone who knows how it works, but is deadly if you give it to a 6yr old (not to mention stupid).
Prayers, exorcisms, etc etc etc DO NOT WORK 100% of the time. Demons are NOT bound by christian law anymore then we are. Demons have their own faith (some believe in god, others don’t). The only constant thing that does work 100% of the time (if done properly) is YOUR WILL!!!! You called it to you, you allowed it to enter, only YOU can drive it back. While you may say “Well I don’t want it here but it wont leave…..”, wanting or desiring something is not will. The will I’m referring to is the knowledge that you have the power over anything invading your life and you direct that power into a single thought of getting it out. That is your will.
Ghosts, demons, etc etc can touch you because you allow them to have that power. I’ve delt with numerous spirits, demons, etc and have never had one follow me home, or bother me beyond our encounter. Yet I’m not a christian, nor do I pray to that god.
i dont mean to put a damper on anyones belief of this story.but i didnt believe it..the ending made it seem unreal..i find that when some peoples story ends kind of like this one its bc it was simply made up.it just left us hanging..the ending was not of something that actually took place..i cant explain it..just my opinion..
iwould also like to add ..there is a incredible ouija board story on here..Inviting The Demon – A Ouija Board Story..it was posted june 22nd ..it actually scared me..and was told and written with such precise..so check it out if you havent read it..pace urself cause it is a pretty long story
like the guy said the board isnt the conduit we are. I tried meditation and All I got out of it was a broken TV and popped ear drums. Heres my true story.
I was reading this site about harnesting psy which is supposed to be the physikic energy, because I recently decided to become more “spiritually aligned”.
Anyway a form of absorbing psy was to meditate. To meditate you have to consintrate on one thing only for a set amount of time. I focused on having my spirit let free like a dumby. My meditation was broken by high-pitched scream comming from all directions, and it was way more then one person screaming. I decided to confront whatever was screaming not being the type to pee my pants when something unordinary happens. I said “who are you?” it replied “this” I asked what “this” was and it said “everything” being confused and extremely scared I said “who are you!!!!!” It replied extremely quietly “I am lust, hate, and fear It self”. I started praying in my attempt to drive this demon away. It yelled “I AM RIMMON” Rimmon then threw my 125 pound weight bar I left stacked for my next usage at a lightning sped right at my TV leaving it trashed along with half of my dry wall. I ripped the silver cross that hung from my neck off and held it out at Rimmon and started screaming “our father”. Rimmon got angrier and threatend to kill all that I loved. I resitited the prayer even louder now. Then all of a sudden silence. To this very day I still get the ocansional visit from Rimmon. Can anyone tell me what it means when the demons talk quietly?
Ay Dios Mio!!!! That’s really scary my family is from Mexico and I am froman long line of decendents of the Mayan indians, and there are a few stories i have of paranormal experiences and i might later on post them and also, from old time i guess you could rituals of the Mayans there are different things you could burn that would help you, for example if you burn white sage(or any type of sage but that’s what i prefer) it keeps away evil or harmful spirits and there are different things you can burn you should look it up especially for cherokee indians one of my friends is one and they have different things that they use for these type of things, looking it up would be agreat help =D
So what Fictional book did you Copy and Paste this from?
Uhh.. I didn’t It actually happend
seems a little to far fetched to be believed but,that could just be rationalization on my part.
ElQueLlora, next time you use a ouija board you and who ever else is with you should pray this prayer its the hedge of protection prayer or better yet
Hedge of Protection
Father, in the name of Jesus, we lift up (your name) to You and pray a hedge of protection around him/her. We thank You, Father, that You are a wall of fire round about (your name) and that you set Your angels round about him/her.
We thank You, Father, that (your name) dwells in the secret place of the Most High and abides under hte shadow of the Almighty. We say of You, Lord, You are his/her refuge and fortress, in You will he/she trust. You cover (your name) with Your feathers, and under Your wings shall he/she trust. (Your name) shall not be afraid of the terror by night or the arrow that flies by day. Only with his/her eyes will (your name) behold and see the reward of the wicked.
Because (your name) has made You, Lord, his/her refuge and fortress, no evil shall befall him/her – no accident will overtake him/her – neither shall any plague or calamity come near him/her. For you give Your angels charge over (your name), to keep him/her in all Your ways.
Father, because You have set Your love upon (your name), therefore will You deliver him/her. (Your name) shall call upon You, and You will answer him/her. You will be with him/her in trouble and will satisfy (your name) with a long life and show him/her Your salvation. Not a hair of his/her head shall perish. Amen
Hey just a thought, but ummm, why should God help out people who are playing with demons?
Just wondering but,to me , thats like attending a satanic ritual and then praying to Jesus to not let any bad people be there.
This story is NOT true. This is clearly someone’s imagination at work as each episode becomes more and more fantastic and scary. It IS true though, that messing with ouija boards is highly dangerous. Any kids reading this and thinking it could be cool to give ouija boards a try, DON’T. They will badly mess with your head. There ARE demons and they ARE evil. This is fact and a made up story like this one doesn’t make them any more or less real . They just are. There are no good spirits to be contacted, just demons that sometimes pretend to be, so they can suck you in.
I WANT TO ADD TO WHAT EVERYONE IS SAYING. THIS STORY IS NOT REAL. ALL THE BASIC RULES OF SAFETY REGARDING QUIJA BOARD WHERE BROKEN. NEVER LEAVE THE BOARD UNATENDED, DONT USE IT UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF BEER OR INTOCTICATED SUBSTANCES. THE FIGURE EIGHT, THE PORTAL, THE 4 CORNERS. EVERYTHING WAS BROKEN.. AND YET HERE YOU ARE… BTW THE PHRASE “Ego sum imperator everto diabolus” TRANSLATES TO “I to be commander in chief to destroy devil” SOOOO A DEMON WOULD HAVE NEVER SAID THIS
this story is true, when it comes to demons anything, ANYTHING is possible. its putting doubt in your minds, and allowing u to shrug this story off as simply fiction, and a plea for help, just a cheap trick to make a silly tale a little scarier. this is a powerful demon, and those of u that do not believe are tools. and obviously do not know the most obvious things about demons or spirts. ElQueLlora, i am an experienced demon hunter, and i know how to deal with your “buddy”.
Just so you know BillyMalice, no one is putting doubts in my mind. I KNOW that demos are real, but I suggest you read the story more carefully. Everytime ElQueLlora was told that the story was awsome, he kept making it even better. I’m not saying demons are not real. All I’m saying is that THIS story IS WAY TO FANTASTIC.
well this culd be true! sure it does have moments wear we have doubt but who nos:) i hope this taught people to not take o.boards lightly X)
Yep,yep playing with the board is extremely dangerous and if u burned it also..
I”ve just read one of the replies on here and I’m smiling. There are NO experienced Demon Hunters. Demons cannot be hunted or exterminated. They were created immortal and live in a realm we cannot influence. Only God can do that. Demons CAN be summoned though and the ouija board is a main tool to do this. Tinkering with the supernatural is more than dangerous, whether it is ouija boards, seances or the stupid celebration of Halloween. American kids seem to be especially fascinated by the occult and the most influenced by it . You have only got to look at how many kids in the USA have gone on shooting sprees and the like, far more than in any other nation. Open yourself up to evil and you WILL get a result but it won’t be a good one. This story is not true, it is too contrived, however, like I said Demons are real and they are evil.
John,
No one here claimed to be a demon hunter (at least not that I’ve read), the only one close to it would have been my comment, but I wasn’t referring to myself as a hunter of any kind. I said “dealt” as in “spoken to”, “saw”, “heard”, “had experience with”…..etc.
Halloween supernatural??? LOL!!! It’s far too commercialized now to have any resemblance of what it started out as, even then it had no supernatural tone to it at all. But anyway…..
I do agree about young peoples fascination with occult things, not just American, all over the world. TV Shows, movies, etc etc all make it look like fun things to play with.
Do I feel the occult or supernatural things in life should be avoided? When you’re ready then no, have at it, but until then learn, read, understand.
Too many people have such a narrowminded view of everything that it just feeds the fog surrounding the truth.
1) Not all demons/angels are good or evil (much like humans they choose their path).
2) Spirits/ghosts/demons/angel/etc etc cannot always be forced to leave a place through the christian concept of god (doesn’t work that way).
In any event people will believe what they are most comfortable in believing.
John -
Just saw the post you were referring to. Apparently that poster has watched Supernatural one too many times on television (though I think its a great show, provided you remember it’s all fiction).
anyway i toatlly beleive his story.my grama was babbysitting one night with her freind emily.they were about 14 years old at the time.both the kids were asleep(that they were watching) and it was 11:36pm.the parents hadn’t come home yet.emily had her dad buy her an ouiji bored that morning just for the hell of it.emily puled it out of her backpack that she had brought alnog for the night.she set it on the table and both girls had turned the lights out.they lit a few candles.emily asked ‘if there are any spiirits in this house please give a sighn.’seconds later the planchette had moved to yes.this time my grandma had asked the question ‘can u tell us your name?’ D-E-F-E-N-A-N-T-L-Y the planchette had spelled.it had spelled I-A-M-A-L-I-N-K-E-R.the bored started to rise,and shake vilontley.it had glowed a tint of yelloish green.my gramna heard blood curdling screams from what it seemed was people in her ears,it didnt stop,and she screamed and she ran out of the house.she was kneeling on the ground with her hands over her ears and her whole body shaking like mad.emily came out a few secounds latter teriffyed,screaming at the top of her lungs.once they got ahold of themselves and the screaming had stopped,they both decided to burn the board once they had came home.the parents of the kids had come home and once the board was out away,they droped em off at my gramna s house.they burned the bored in a trash can.but my grandma had said they forgot to move the planchette to the ‘goodbye’square.and emily had sworn that a week later the spirit had come to burn down her familys house with all of them in it.the house had burned to the ground and there was nothing left.everyone had escaped.my grandma had recited the lords prayer,and prayed every night from then on.she doesnt keep in touch with emily anymore.for all she knows,alinker had killed her when she was 18.
I Have Tried the ouija board during my sophmore year of highschool, Luckily i didn’t come across any of the demons or bad spirits talked about in the comments above.
It was during a school trip, me and my friends came across a small ouija board that was hooked to a key chain, that one was too small to use of course so we made our own. Now we all knew what could happen because we all grew up being told that ouijas could open bad doorways and they were not to be toyed with, So before we tried anything i prayed silently that nothing would follow me home and if that something did that it would only trouble me and not any of my family. When we started nothing eventful really happened just a few question being answered at times, so since nothing was happening we decided to quit so i went back to my hotel room and watched TV for awhile and during that time i feel asleep and had a very strange dream ( can’t recall much of it now ) then i was pulled off the bed and landed on the floor, i automatically thought it was one of my friends being funny but when i looked around nobody was in the room with me. That scared me a bit so i went back to my friends room to later find out that the same thing happened to one of my friend as well, so we thought maybe now we’ll get more answers so started with the ouija bored again and during that time our guy friend who was asleep in the room sat up out of bed and began screaming… then laid back down and was sleeping again as if nothing even happened… So then thats when we realized that we should quit while before anything serious happens. As soon as i arrived back home i smuged myself with sage and prayed once again that nothing followed me and Nothing did.
I have never tired a ouija since….
i wana try a ouija board ?
sounds cool , but it daunt ?
If this story really is real ( I can’t approve or disprove that) and this demon really is following you, all you need is God. Trust me on this. You go onto any satanist site eg. Joy Of Satan, and even the satanists themselves will tell you that there are indeed legions of demons, some being higher than others and that Satan regards with hatred, people who have fear. Again, this story may be real, it may not be, but there is always a common thing in these stories and thats that the demons want you dead. Or at least, mentally scarred by the looks of things. They all swear, and they are all extremely perverted. You give them one chance to enter you (most easily through a Ouija board as this is a practical party invitation to them) and they will torment you. Yes, it’s case of being very strong willed but remember, they cower at the mere name of Jesus Christ.
Keep him close to you, and nothing will try and enter.
i find it funny how all oujia board stories have the people stupidly bringing the ghost onto them selves and either antagonise it or use the board a second or even a third time
ya you r rite jericho.but still it duz happen.trust me been there done that.
“Ego sum imperator everto diabolus”???
what the…latin is a bit of bud?
TIghost:
If you use an online translator for that line you get the following;
I to be commander in chief to destroy devil
How accurate that is I don’t know, I love latin but can’t speak a lick of it.
