A childhood belief about imaginary friends

When I was really young, I got a "Ouiga" (wee-jee) board for Christmas. It was just a cardboard Milton-Bradley one, but I still figured that it would work. We set it up in my bedroom and for the longest time, I had my sister conviced that there was the soul of a girl named Sarah living in the walls of our bedroom. I made up a whole story about her and everything. When we would talk to Sarah through the Ouija board, I would actually be moving the pointer and accuse my sister of moving it so that she got so scared that she actually thought Sarah was doing it. I had a vivid imagination.
