1920s Ouijamania (Ouija Board Series)

<p>"Ouijamania" is the phenomenon where people, usually women, supposedly went crazy because of their Ouija board use, usually resulting in their institutionalization.</p> <p>We take a look at Ouijamania in 1920 and see how the panic over Ouija boards was influenced by big movements at the time, including womens suffrage, prohibition, and, unfortunately, eugenics.</p> <p>Highlights include:<br /> • Occult rituals<br /> • 1920s insane asylums<br /> • Burning money<br /> • The dark side of 1920s feminism</p> <p>For our shownotes, including our sources, visit <a href= "https://buriedsecretspodcast.com/" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">buriedsecretspodcast.com</a>.</p> <p>You can listen to more audio on our patreon ($3/month): <a href= "https://www.patreon.com/buriedsecrets">https://www.patreon.com/buriedsecrets</a></p> <p>Follow us on instagram <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/buriedsecretspodcast/">@buriedsecretspodcast</a>, and follow Jen <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/jenmariewilde/">@jenmariewilde</a>.</p> <p>E-mail us at <a href= "mailto:buriedsecretspodcast@gmail.com">buriedsecretspodcast@gmail.com</a>. </p>
