The construction of the world’s largest Ouija board led to lots of spooky occurrences.
The largest Ouija board in the world was created on the roof of the Grand Midway Hotel, an appropriately haunted establishment in Windber, Pennsylvania. Measuring 1,302.54 square feet, the Ouija board has amped-up hauntings since it was installed, according to the project’s co-creator and hotel resident, filmmaker Blair Murphy.
“Things flipped out throughout the hotel. Energies were swirling. Guests were getting completely freaked out,” Murphy told Guinness World Records in 2017. “It seemed to kick things up into an entirely new level of paranormal activity.
We were seeing floating people and hearing voices and even the hotel pets were flipping out and reacting to unseen forces. Our dreams were pretty wild. And it wasn’t just us. Other longer-term hotel residents were saying, ‘There is absolutely something going on here’ and having their own middle-of-the-night weird encounters.”
