BBC Radio 4 - Uncanny, Series 4, S4. Case 1: The Flood

A teenager in Georgia tries to contact his dead aunt - and all hell breaks loose.

After his favourite aunt perishes in Hurricane Katrina, a teenager in Georgia tries to contact her via her prized Ouija board - and all hell breaks loose.

Marcus loves visiting his eccentric Aunt Jean, the black sheep of a very religious family. She runs a witch shop in New Orleans, selling spells, candles and Ouija boards. When Aunt Jean tragically dies in Hurricane Katrina, drowned in the basement of her own flat, her possessions end up at Marcus’s granddad’s house in South Georgia. 

One night Marcus and his cousin dig them out and find her prized Ouija board. What will happen if they try to make contact with her? The answer, it turns out, is that all hell breaks loose. 

Danny heads to Georgia to meet Marcus and hears about the most terrifying night of his life.
