The Ouija Board and the Frat Pin

Sunday, May 31, 2026 4:08

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

During the autumn of 1920, Miss Fannie Levings was distraught. She had lost a valuable frat pin and after searching everywhere and asking all her friends if they had seen it, the pin seemed gone forever. Life had to go on, and Miss Levings left her home in West Virginia’s northern panhandle to travel to Parkersburg for a meeting of the State Educational Association. On the way there, she stopped in Clarksburg to visit with friends.

Fueled by a rise in Spiritualism following World War One, the Ouija Board dominated the 1920s as a fun parlor game, used to connect with the other side for the purpose of asking groundbreaking questions such as “who will I marry?”

Miss Levings and her friends decided to ask the board the whereabouts of the missing frat pin. The response was prompt and concise: “In Fannie’s bed.” Miss Levings wrote a letter home to her mother, asking her to thoroughly inspect the bed for the missing pin. Much to everyone’s surprise and delight, the pin WAS found in Fannie’s bed!

Perhaps the spirits were feeling especially helpful that fateful day and led Fannie in the right direction. Or, is there a more logical explanation? I’ll let you decide. Stay spooky!
