MURCH: Its origins are still shrouded in mystery, but in 1886, a few things happen. There was an Associated Press story about new talking boards taking over northern Ohio, so we know talking boards existed in Ohio, but a man named Charles Kennard, living in Chestertown, Maryland, claimed to invent the board that would become Ouija. He asked a man who worked right next to him, E.C. Reiche, a cabinet maker and coffin maker, to make a few. So Reiche [later] claims he came up with the idea, too and that Charles Kennard took it from him and went on to make it a business. So we don’t really know [who did].
It’s a huge hit in Chestertown from 1886 to 1890. Then Kennard goes to Baltimore and meets Elijah Bond, a lawyer. In April 1890—we think April 25—they have a séance with Bond’s sister-in-law Helen Peters, whom Bond calls a “strong medium,” where they ask the board what it wants to be called. It spells out “O-U-I-J-A” and when they ask what that means, the board spells out, “G-O-O-D L-U-C-K.” The building where the séance happened is still there, 529 N. Charles Street. It’s a 7-Eleven.
So Elijah Bond files for the patent, and the patent office says, you have to prove it works. A grandson of Helen Peters says his grandmother told his family this story: Bond took Peters to the patent office in Washington, D.C.
They show it to the first clerk, who says, ‘I don’t want to be a laughing stock.’ They get the chief clerk, who says, ‘If that contraption can spell out my name, then you’ve got your patent.’ Peters takes out the Ouija Board. It spells his name. The chief clerk — visibly shaken — says, ‘O.K. you’ve got your patent.’ But the patent doesn’t talk about why it works. Thanks for Peeking at My Goodies !
