Jenn Nizza, a former psychic who says she spent decades steeped in the occult, is sounding a blunt alarm for parents this Halloween: Ouija boards, tarot cards, and other tools of divination are being marketed as harmless fun and they are increasingly aimed at kids. Her warning is not soft-spoken—it comes from personal experience moving from the occult into Christianity and seeing firsthand what these practices can do to families and faith.
Nizza’s story reads like a cautionary tale for our times: she began in the psychic world as a teenager, sank deeper into tarot, numerology, and automatic writing, and now says the spirits she once thought were guiding her were not benign at all. After hitting rock bottom she turned to Christ and concluded the “messages” were demonic deception masquerading as comfort, a conclusion that ought to make every thinking parent pause.
What should frighten American moms and dads is how normalized these practices have become—tarot readers at parties, Ouija-style games sold in mainstream stores, horoscopes and witchy merch packaged for teens. Nizza points to the deliberate marketing push around October that treats divination as a seasonally acceptable hobby, which only lowers the guardrails around our children’s spiritual and moral formation.
The problem has gone beyond novelty toys: there are now products openly promising supernatural connections—even one talking-board style device that advertises a pathway to messages from Jesus or the Holy Spirit, a blasphemous distortion that Nizza warns could mislead vulnerable people. This isn’t harmless innovation; it’s spiritual confusion packaged as convenience and credibility.
We’re not imagining a cultural shift—surveys show a notable portion of Americans engage with astrology, tarot, or fortune-telling at least occasionally, a trend Nizza calls “horrific” because it indicates a society increasingly open to occult influence. When nearly a third of adults dabble in divination at least once a year, parents and pastors need to wake up and reclaim the narrative for faith and common sense.
This is where conservatives and communities of faith must stand firm. Woke corporations, social media influencers, and late-night culture profit from normalizing spiritual relativism while shirking responsibility for what they sell to children. If we don’t push back—educating our kids, demanding accountability from retailers, and offering wholesome alternatives—then the rot spreads unchecked and our families pay the price.
Practical vigilance is patriotic: talk to your children, vet the costumes and games in your home, and work with churches and schools to promote true sources of moral guidance. Celebrate autumn with corn mazes and community service, not occult trinkets; teach children to seek wisdom in Scripture and reason, not fortune-tellers and fortune-cookie theology. Our duty as citizens and parents is to protect the next generation from fads that cloud judgment and corrode character.
Americans have always been a people of faith, family, and freedom, and that must include spiritual discernment. Let Jenn Nizza’s testimony be a wake-up call—we can be compassionate without being naive, loving without being permissive, and bold in defending the innocence of our children against anything that pretends to be fun while opening doors to darkness.
