The stories here are a true collection of events. If you can not understand the progression of these strange events and how they transformed me by learning the lessons I needed to learn in life, then you will never understand the Mystery Files because it in itself will be a deep dive into many mysteries.

With that being said, let us begin. It is still summer of 1989, this was the fourth day of leave, by this time I was bored. The Ouija Board was no longer working for me, so my brother was getting bored and we decided there had to be another way without buying another one.

With the Internet only in it’s infancy, the days of America Online, and the fact that there were not so much information on the sites as of yet, we did discover web pages on how to make your own OUIJA using common materials so that is what we did.

Getting a square piece of Styrofoam and a permanent marker we made our own OUIJA board and used a plastic see thru cover as the planchette. We took the board outside into the back yard where we used the concrete steps as a table and proceeded to ask the board questions. Once again it was answering and there was no problems for about 45 minutes.

We were about to ask it a question on who was going to win the world series this year so we could try to get DAD to place a bet, when out of the corner of my eye I saw a dark shadow of what looked like a lion with wings. My brother obviously saw it too because the look he gave me was that of the usual WTF look. So we threw the board away and went back inside.

UNFORTUNATELY THE STORY DOES NOT END HERE

Lying down on the couch getting ready to turn in because tomorrow would be my last day of leave and I would have to return to the base tomorrow evening. I just settled down and my mind, or maybe I was dreaming I saw all kinds of connections and points. I saw a vortex and a connection point where I drew the conclusion I was looking into a consciousness. All of a sudden I was woken out of my sleep I looked at the clock it was 2:00 AM and the phone rang. I grabbed it and said, “ Hello Sandy.”

Now I was met in silence at first and she said How the F*** did you know it was me. I tried to play it off, as a lucky guess but she was not buying it

I would have dismissed that as a glitch, but all day long the phone rang and I already knew who was on the other end of the phone. For those of you who do not know, we did not have caller ID, we just had the old fashion Touch Tone phone, where we could not tell who was calling before we answered. So, for those of you who thought caller ID, that is wrong. Remember this is 1989.

So I managed to freak out just about everyone today, so I guess my mission was complete. For the first time looking back now, that one line from Ghostbusters 2 where DR. Venkmen is in an expensive resturant with Dayna Barrett and Winston, Ray, and Egon run in in their underwear and start rambling off, and Venkmen shouts, “ Guys, Guys, you are scaring the straights.” Yep I was scaring them, but I was confused because my dream in fact showed me we are all connected, so what gives. I guess the mass population were truly sleeping.

Now I have over the years learned to get a grip on this, I think that I am more in tuned now because I can actually look into a person’s eyes that I am close to and tell them what they are feeling and how they are either misunderstanding things or how they can overcome.

All of this stemmed from that one day in 1989 when I made my own OUIJA Board, I guess it could have been a lot worse, so I am thankful for that.

In closing a famous quote comes to mind that shows that we do not truly understand life.

“There are eleven dimensions to reality.”- Albert Einstein
