A Midnight Game of Contacting Spirits Turns Into a Mass Medical Incident — Raising Alarms About Children, Supervision, and the Dangers of the Unknown

HATO, Colombia — A Game Turns Into Chaos

On November 12, 2022, inside the Agricultural Technical Institute in Hato, Colombia, a group of students reportedly gathered in a corridor with a spirit board. What started as a mischievous attempt to “contact something” quickly spiraled into a scene of panic.
Within minutes, eleven children aged 13 to 17 collapsed almost simultaneously. Some vomited violently, others clutched their stomachs, several couldn’t stand, and a few appeared to lose control of their muscles entirely. Teachers described the corridor as a “line of students on the floor,” all in distress.

Medical Explanations — and the Unanswered Gap

Doctors treated the group for abdominal pain, nausea and spasms. The initial explanation was food-related illness, possibly something shared earlier in the day.
But several adults at the school pointed out the uncomfortable timing: the collapse occurred moments after the group had been huddled around a ouija board.
No signs of drugs, environmental toxins or psychological disorders were officially confirmed. The case remains open to interpretation — physical, psychological or otherwise.

Why Children Are Vulnerable to This Kind of Event

Even without anything supernatural involved, children are uniquely susceptible to the pressures and fears that come with these so-called “paranormal games.”
Young minds absorb suggestion quickly. A sudden fright, a whispered dare, a frightening idea planted at the wrong moment — any of these can trigger powerful physical reactions. And when one child reacts, others often follow in a chain.
When adults dismiss spirit boards as harmless toys, they forget that children process fear and uncertainty with far less emotional armor than grown-ups.

A School Left With Tough Questions

After the incident, parents demanded to know why students were unsupervised long enough to conduct a séance in a school corridor. Staff questioned how a spirit board was brought to class in the first place. Some in the community blamed superstition. Others pointed fingers at lax oversight.
Whatever the cause, the scene was undeniable: eleven teenagers on the floor, terrified, ill and overwhelmed — because something they didn’t understand was allowed to unfold without an adult watching.

The Real Lesson: Supervision Isn’t Optional

Whether you believe in paranormal danger or psychological reaction, the conclusion is the same.
Children cannot fully grasp the consequences of playing with things tied to fear, folklore or the unknown.
Left alone, even a “game” can spiral into panic, injury or trauma. And when a group is involved, the fallout multiplies instantly.
Parents and schools often assume kids will treat spirit boards like a joke. But kids don’t always have the emotional distance to walk away unharmed.

Closing Thoughts

On this date, the message echoes loud and clear:
Children must be watched, guided and steered away from unsupervised encounters with the occult, the paranormal or anything that taps into deep fear.
The Hato incident proves how fast things can unravel — and how important it is to ensure kids never navigate the unknown alone.
