Ouija Board Rules: 3AM Devil’s Hour - Should I Play?

It is said that one of the most dangerous times to play with the Ouija board is at or around 3AM, a time that is known to some as the ‘Devil’s hour’ or the ‘Demon hour’.  Many who have dared to play the Ouija board would tell you that any time, can be a dangerous time to play (although not necessarily unrewarding).  But playing with the Ouija board between the time of 3AM and 4AM is said to be particularly hazardous, with regards to the player opening themselves up to a greater risk of Demonic influence.

The Devil’s hour is notorious as a time when increased instances of unusual (and often frightening) paranormal activity is experienced.  And is said to be the time when the boundaries between our world and that which lies beyond are at their most tenuous.  Allowing entities from the other side to cross over.  And potentially attack the player.

Some believe the time of 3AM to have gained its unholy power due to it being a ‘mockery’ of the time that Jesus is said to have died on the cross, at 3PM.  And whether religious or not, 3AM is well known as both a time when sufferers of ‘Sleep Paralysis’ frequently experience bouts or ‘attacks’, of their condition.  And is also a time known well by hospital workers as a time that nocturnal deaths within their facilities are at their highest (although this is believed to be a time when the human immune system is at its weakest).

And in addition, numerous movies said to be based upon ‘real’ stories feature 3AM: the Devil’s hour, as a time when unusual and/or horrifying incidents have been experienced, or acted out.  The devil’s hour features strongly within the movie ‘The Last Exorcism of Emily Rose’, is the time when Butch DeFeo executes his entire family in the ‘Amytivillle Horror’, and is also the time when the strange and disturbing attacks by ‘Aliens’ occur in ‘The Fourth Kind’.

And as such, 3AM: the Devil’s hour, is a time when playing the Ouija board is not recommended.  Except by those who actively seek out the most dangerous of encounters.
