Robert Murch

Robert Murch is the world’s foremost collector, historian, and expert on Ouija and Talking Boards and serves as the Chairman of the Board for the Talking Board Historical Society. His bizarre relationship with Ouija began after watching Kevin Tenney’s Witchboard in 1986, a century after the talking board made its debut. Murch purchased his first antique Ouija board in 1992 and became obsessed with unraveling the mystery of its origins.

Since then, he’s devoted his life to researching the history of the Ouija board and its founders, with Murch often traveling the world to track down descendants of all those involved with the introduction of the mystifying oracle. Murch is an accomplished international lecturer, speaking at museums and conferences around the world, and he’s consulted on or appeared in numerous TV programs and periodicals featuring Ouija. What’s next for Murch? You’ll just have to ask the Ouija board!
