Years later, Debbie (Shelley Hennig) is shown tossing a Ouija board into a fire after saying "goodbye". She declines Laine's (Olivia Cooke) invitation to watch a school basketball match, preferring to be left alone, while also sharing the story about how she discovered a Ouija board at her home. When she gets back inside, she finds that the Ouija board has mysteriously materialized back in her bed. Debbie is subsequently possessed and forced to commit suicide. Grieving over her death, Laine suspects that Debbie's suicide might have something to do with the Ouija board and decides to use it, enlisting the help of her boyfriend, Trevor (Daren Kagasoff), their waitress friend, Isabelle (Bianca Santos), and Laine's rebellious younger sister, Sarah (Ana Coto). Choosing to do the séance inside Debbie's house which Laine temporarily babysits while Debbie's parents are grieving elsewhere, they are joined by Debbie's boyfriend, Pete (Douglas Smith). The five contact a spirit named "D", who they assume is Debbie and who spells out "HI FRIEND" to them. After Laine and Pete exchange emotional goodbye to Debbie, the lights turn off. Laine and Trevor discover the stovetop burner turning on by itself, while Pete is pushed to break a mirror by an unseen force. The five leave disturbed but happy that they have finally said goodbye to Debbie. However, the five begin to feel haunted when they encounter "HI FRIEND" written in various places. During their second séance, the five are horrified when they find out that they have never contacted with Debbie, but instead with a spirit called "DZ", whom Debbie once contacted. She spells out "RUN" and "MOTHER'S COMING" on the board. Looking through a glass window on a planchette, Laine sees DZ (Sierra Heuermann) with her mouth sewn shut and a woman with black eyes and a gaping mouth (Claudia Katz) running towards her. The group decide to stop using the board. Through a series of video tapes, Laine finds out that Debbie had broken a cardinal rule in playing the Ouija board: never to play alone. The same night, Isabelle is killed when she becomes possessed and hits her head with a sink. Laine enlists Pete's help to search for the place where Debbie found the Ouija board: her house's attic. The two discover several photos that point to the house's previous owner: a woman and her two daughters. One of the two daughters, Doris Zander, disappeared in the house with her mother being the prime suspect, while the other, Paulina, was sent to a mental institution after killing her mother. Meeting with Paulina (Lin Shaye), Laine learns that Paulina's mother conducted séances and had used Doris as a medium for the spirits to inhabit. However, she slowly went mad and killed Doris, but not before she sewed her mouth to stop the spirits from talking any further. To save her life, Laine must cut open the sewing in Doris, whose body is stored in a secret room in Debbie's house. Facing challenges from Doris' mother, Laine nevertheless manages to cut open the sewing, setting Doris' spirit free. However, when Pete is possessed and killed by Doris, Laine learns that Paulina has manipulated her into cutting the sewing as the latter is secretly in league with Doris; the true danger is Doris, not her mother, who only wanted to prevent anyone from using the Ouija board. Laine resorts to the advice of her grandmother, Nona (Vivis Colombetti), instead, who tells her that she must sever the ties she has made to Doris by burning her body. She goes to Debbie's house with Sarah and Trevor, but the latter is lured and drowned in the house pool by Doris. The two sisters are separated by Doris and Sarah is almost killed until Laine resorts to playing the Ouija board alone to lure Doris into also playing it. She is about to be possessed by Doris, but Debbie's spirit appears to stop the possession. During the distraction, Sarah manages to throw Doris' body into the furnace, followed by Laine tossing the Ouija board into it, finally defeating Doris. Back at home, Laine finds that the Ouija board has yet again manifested back in her room. The film ends with Laine looking through the glass window in the planchette. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ouija (2014 film)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
