#115 Susan Slaughter: We Did Our First Séance... and Things Got Weird

On this episode of the Acid For Squares podcast, hosts Tanya Dahl and Cody Blue welcome back paranormal investigator Susan Slaughter, known for her work on hit paranormal television shows including Ghost Hunters and Paranormal Caught on Camera. In the spirit of Halloween, Susan joins Tanya and Cody for a very special episode and conducts the first-ever Acid For Squares Séance.

Before the ceremony begins, Susan takes us into the strange and often misunderstood history of the Ouija board, spirit boards, and the Spiritualist movement. She explains how spirit communication became associated with charlatans and controversy, why the Ouija board developed such a dark reputation, and why she believes it can still be a legitimate method of communicating with the other side, even if it is a little archaic compared to some of the newer technologies paranormal investigators have at their disposal today. Susan also explains how spirit communication can potentially provide clarity around paranormal experiences people have struggled to understand.

That’s when things take an unexpected turn. Tanya reveals that the night before filming, she experienced an intense episode of sleep paralysis and saw a mysterious being standing in the corner of the room. As she describes what she witnessed, Susan realizes something unsettling: she saw what appears to be the same entity during a séance of her own the night before. From there, Susan prepares Tanya and Cody for the ceremony, beginning with a pendulum exercise to help entrain the group before moving to the spirit board. Once their hands touch the planchette, things quickly go from strange to downright bizarre. The planchette begins moving rapidly across the board, producing a stream of cryptic messages that Susan, Tanya, and Cody struggle to understand in real time.

What, or who, was trying to communicate with them? Watch until the end, study the messages for yourself, and if you think you can decipher what came through, tell us in the comments what you believe it was trying to say.
