The city of Baltimore, being the birthplace of the Ouija board, needed a home to share its strange, eerie, and fascinating history. Discover the tale behind Elijah Bond’s Ouija headstone at Greenmount Cemetery, and how a plaque inside the 7-Eleven on North Charles Street came to mark the board’s birthplace. Learn about how Helen Peters, known as “the Mother of the Ouija Board” - a woman who played an integral role in the legacy and lore of the board, was erased from history and only recently rediscovered. The Ouija board has inspired films, music… even murder. Come explore the truth behind its mysterious origins.
