28 Girls hospitalized after using Ouija board

In a startling incident, 28 young girls were rushed to the hospital after they suddenly lost consciousness while reportedly playing with an Ouija board at school.

The schoolgirls were brought in displaying signs of fainting, anxiety, and other distressing symptoms.

In a video statement, Hugo Torres – director of the Galeras Educational Institution in Sucre Department, Colombia – revealed that directors and teachers from his school had accompanied students to the hospital.

He stated “There were 28 possible cases of anxiety in school students.

“Given the reported cases, a series of comments were unleashed on the community that, rather than helping to resolve the situation, led to confusion and an adverse environment for our work. For this reason, INEGA is allowed to report that the students were referred to the local municipal hospital according to the protocols in place.

“Directors and teachers accompanied the students during the evaluation process. The respective parents and/or guardians were informed of the situation at the time.”

The school is currently awaiting the medical reports to provide further information regarding the incident. Torres additionally revealed that two of the students, who are hospitalized now, have pre-existing medical conditions.

He clarified: “The school is waiting for the medical diagnoses to provide further reliable information. The educational institute also respectfully asks citizens to refrain from making early judgments and diagnoses of their own.”

Many parents believe the children have been using Ouija boards in class.

One mother complained: “I work here in a hospital kiosk and every day I see three or four children arrive after fainting. Parents, you have to move, and investigate what’s happening at school, because our children cannot continue in this situation. Our children always have a good breakfast and it cannot be said that what’s happening is due to lack of food.”
