In the early 1900s, Pearl Lenore Curran began experimenting with a Ouija board.  Shortly after a woman named Patience Worth started communicating with her. They would go on to publish novels, plays, poems and essays together.  Nearly a million of Patience's words were transcribed. Pearl claimed to be nothing more than a vessel for Patience Worth. Scientists, psychics and skeptics had a hard time disproving the existence of the spirit who lived in the 17th century.
