This happened quite a few years ago, when I was in middle school. I was on the field hockey team at my school, and we had an away meet. One girl had brought a Ouija board on the bus, and we started goofing off, asking it silly questions like "will we win the game?", "will someone get injured?", so on, you know, middle school girls playing around. One girl asked "will we get in a car crash?" and when it drifted to "yes" that really set us off. We thought it was a riot. We asked it when, and it told us "5:40 pm". We were a little creeped out since that would be the time we'd be traveling back, but mostly we just thought it was silly, especially since the bus was so bumpy we couldn't expect to get a clear message.

Anyway, we got to the host school, and we played our game. It went really, really badly--we lost by a lot, and somehow the team felt like it was falling apart at the seams. We felt horrible about it, and I guess the coach could tell, because as soon as we were all on the bus she told us to all get out and go join her on the field. So we did, and we had about a ten-minute long meeting about team spirit and all that, and ended up feeling much better and more together. So we got back on the bus and headed back to our school. Those of us who'd been playing with the Ouija board had pretty much forgotten about it by then--until we got into a huge traffic jam. When we finally got to the site of obstruction, it was a small red car wrapped around a telephone pole. it clearly was recent since the police weren't even there yet. We checked our watches--5:50. If we hadn't had that meeting, we'd have been at that exact site right as the crash happened.

Now, I'm skeptical and I don't really believe in the occult, but years later I still think that's creepy.
