Is it Too late for The Church? Two thousand years. Two billion believers. One fundamental deception. You've always known something wasn't quite right about The Church. About "The Gospel."

Astonishing true stories of paranormal nightmares! From devilish dolls and haunted Ouija boards to witchcraft disasters and doomed demonic deals, True Tales Trilogy covers a wide spectrum of occult encounters that end in horror, hardship, and tragedy. If there’s one theme that runs throughout this compendium, it’s this: If you play with fire, you’re going to get burned.

The occult seduces in many ways. It promises secret knowledge and magical powers. It teases of enlightenment and transformation. It enchants with mysteries and wonders. But therein lies the trap. Once the shiny bait is taken, the hook is pulled. The prey is left to slowly perish, gasping for breath in a metaphysical dream that has turned into a nightmare. The occult is nothing if not dangerous. It opens channels that are best left closed. It attracts entities that don’t play by the rules. And it demands more – always more – than what was bargained for.

Think the Ouija board is just a game? Think again. For over a century, the Ouija board has lured in everyone from thrill-seeking teens and tipsy party guests to curious skeptics.

Ouija Board Nightmares collects the most terrifying true accounts of those who opened a door they couldn't close. From nightmarish manifestations to physical assaults and demonic possession, these stories serve a dual purpose: to provide a scary good read, but more importantly, to warn.
