Ouijacon: A walk through the Ouija board collectors hall
Ouijacon – the first annual Ouija board convention – was held recently at the Baltimore Harbor Hotel. Sponsored by the Talking Board Historical Society, the event drew more than 150 Ouija Board fans for a series of workshops, ghostly stories, a vendor hall and a midnight seance. The Baltimore Post-Examiner is pleased to present a photo roundup by staff photographer Rebecca Smith of some of the unique talking boards on display in the collectors hall.

Baltimore Post-Examiner is run by a creative cadre of dedicated journalists – some who worked at the Washington Post, Baltimore Examiner and other regional and national publications. It’s the Post-Examiner because we love the play on the word “Post” but we are also hoping to answer that question: What’s next after newspapers? We see a lot of websites come and go – and many simply are not making it for various reasons. We have been a model of success since we launched in 2012 with “a little bit of everything” and we aim to continue to break that cycle of websites coming and going.
