Talking Board Historical Society

The Talking Board Historical Society began in 2008 as a loose affiliation of talking board collectors and enthusiasts, brought together by talking board historian Robert Murch to bring recognition to the forgotten founders and history of the enigmatic Ouija. In that year, the group assembled and raised funds to erect a talking board-inspired headstone at the unmarked grave of Ouija patentee Elijah Bond in Baltimore’s historic Green Mount Cemetery, which has since become the historic cemetery’s most-requested gravesite. The following year, the TBHS worked to bring recognition to William Fuld’s iconic Harford Avenue Ouija factory, built in 1919, which became the first public landmark in Maryland acknowledging the city’s Ouija history. These years also mark a flood of discoveries by the TBHS’s historians and researchers, including the discovery and documentation of the Chestertown, Maryland home where Charles Kennard claimed to invent the Ouija, identifying Ouija’s 1886 “Witch Board” precursor by W.S. Reed Toy Company, and uncovering the enduring legacies of Ouija’s founders in the Igili, Nirvana, Volo, and Weird-A talking boards, among many, many others. In 2014, the TBHS officially incorporated and became a registered non-profit 501(c)(3), naming Robert Murch Chairman of the Board. The TBHS has since worked tirelessly to preserve the history of this unique pop culture phenomenon. Their next project is the construction of a grave marker recognizing the medium Helen Peters for her role in giving the Ouija its unique name, and through this project and others, the Talking Board Historical Society hopes to bring greater and wider recognition to the nearly-forgotten stories and lives of this incredible institution.

Repost from the Ouija group. Thank you Logan!

Hey friends! I am hosting a local Popup museum and seance workshop in my home town this October! I will be donating all profits to The Talking Board Historical Society! I am super excited for this, and will share more as I get closer. I will plan on doing a live video tour the night of as well for my best Ouija friends. I’m happy to share my passion with my community, and all the hard work that the TBHS does to keep this small slice of history alive and mysterious. Below is the post I am sharing to start generating interest. If by some chance you’ll be in Indiana in October, let me know and I’ll save a free seat for you!

Before we know it, the fall season will be upon us: pumpkin spice, cool nights and spooky happenings once the sun goes down; join me for a one of a kind event being held in the beautiful legacy room on the top floor of cornerstone center for the arts! Limited time slots and seats are available for this one night experience!

***This is a family friendly event focused on the history, lore and legend of the infamous ‘Ouija’ board featuring items from my vast personal collection, with a few spooky surprises. There is not a need for negative comments.

“Join the spirits of the departed for one night in Muncie’s Cornerstone Center for the arts! The story of the Ouija Board is told through a private guided tour of a never before seen private collection of Ouija Boards, talking boards, planchettes and other spirit communication devices consisting of over 120 boards on displaying ranging from the turn of the century to modern day. See ‘haunted’ boards with your own eyes, and hear the tales of the spirits that -may- still inhabit them. From family feuds, death, murder and demonic possession the Ouija has a lot to live up to; but it’s just a game, right?

The Ouija board has been a part of American history since the 1800’s, and we will take you down the path of it’s innocent beginnings, rise to stardom, and eventual trip to Hollywood that made it what it is today; a pop culture icon.

If you’re feeling up to trying the board for yourself, join us for a seance workshop where you will learn the tools of the trade, and finally answer the question for yourself “Are The Dead Alive?” You be the judge!

Guided tours every 30 minutes from 6:00 PM - 9:00 PM and seance workshop from 9:30 PM - 11:00 PM guests will leave with their own talking board set. Alcoholic beverages will be available for purchase on site. Family friendly event not recommend for children under 13.”
