One of my neighbors, who is a strong Christian but not trying to impress anyone said that a Ouija board was brought into their house and they knew they didn’t want it there because of the spiritualism that is associated with it, so they burned it.
It was apparently hard to get it to burn (they threw it in the fireplace that already had logs burning) - when it finally caught fire, like with you the flames went very high and there was a sound like a loud scream coming from the fireplace as it was burning.
You have no way of knowing my friend or the truth of the story, but I’ve known her for years as a very trustworthy person.
That sounds like what happened to us, I had forgotten the sound. it wasn’t really really loud but it was noticeable
