Curiosity, boredom, and a desire to contact the unknown have led some servicemembers to experiment with Ouija boards and séances. According to their accounts, the most troubling experiences sometimes began after the session had ended.

This compilation brings together stories of military spiritualism, alleged possession, unexplained visitors, and warnings of death. Spanning barracks, military hospitals, Guam, and Northern Ireland, the accounts include the Camp Lejeune Ouija-board incident, the mystery of the Gulf Breeze Six, and encounters witnesses believed were connected to something they had invited to answer.
