Ouija Board????

Question

i have a Ouija board.

And every time i have used it i have always spoken to a spirit named "mama".

I'm guessing she is supposedly supposed to be some sort of demon or something because she sometimes makes the "devil" talk to us.

I was just wondering if anyone else has talked to a spirit or something named MAMA on the board.

or if you have one spirit who seems to have "possessed" the board.

your thoughts??????

Answer 1

The truth about Ouija boards is that they're not real. It may be disappointing, but it makes sense when you think about it. Do you really think that if spirits wanted to contact the living, they'd use a $20 toy from Walmart as their medium? There's nothing wrong with believing in spirits and the supernatural, but the people who sell Ouija boards are immoral and trying to rip off gullible people.

This is how a Ouija board really works. When you're with a group of close friends who are all spiritual, it is very easy to deceive yourselves that something supernatural is going on. Entirely on a subconscious level, the whole group begins to move the piece around the board without realizing it. All it takes is a slight nudge from someone (just a restless hand, nothing intentional), and then everyone takes up the motion and the piece seems to be moving all on its own! The subconscious mind is more powerful than you probably realize - it works behind our regular thoughts constantly, and can create some pretty vivid images that our conscious mind interprets as supernatural. For example, have you ever heard a wind while lying in bed at night that sounds creepy and spooky? If someone spiritual (or an easily influenced child) hears the same wind, their mind might interpret it as the moaning of a ghost and even pick out words, even though they're just hearing the wind. Ouija boards work the same - once you feel some sort of nudge, the subconscious mind gets ahead of itself, and as a group, everyone moves the piece to spell out words. The more you want the Ouija board to work, the more likely your mind will make it work for you.

A big part of why so many people believe in Ouija boards is that they already have a strong belief in an afterlife and spirits and ghosts. As I said, there’s nothing wrong with believing in this. But when you and your friends get into a spiritual mood, sitting huddled in the darkness with candles and other ‘spiritual’ things, it opens up your mind to play tricks on you much more than it normally would. If you don’t believe that you’d really move the piece subconsciously, just think of the effects a scary movie has on you. When you watch it in the dark and get really engrossed in it, afterwards you’re almost always creeped out and feel anxious. Even though your house is no more dangerous than it normally is, suddenly shadows in the dark, or your friend suddenly touching your shoulder is really scary! The exact same thing is happening when you set the mood for playing with a Ouija board. It’s no wonder you can end up tricking yourself in that kind of atmosphere.

There are also people who will move the piece on purpose, just to get a scare from their friends. If you trust your friends enough, you will believe it really is a ghost. So if you're ever using the board and it does move, look at your friends' fingers and see who it is in the group who is moving it the most. Then look at their face and see if they look sincere, or are hiding a smirk! If it seems like no one in particular is moving it, it probably means your friends are caught up in the moment and really believe it is something paranormal moving the piece.

You and whoever else is using the board all have some sort of emotional connection with a mother figure in your life. Because of that, having a 'ghost' character who calls itself Mama is not a far stretch. Your subconscious is just playing on your personal feelings, which in the end makes the experience all the more real. but unfortunately, it is just a figment of your and your friends' imaginations.

I hope you'll take my advice and only use the Ouija board as a fun game... Really, nothing supernatural is going on. Good luck!

Answer 3

The game is just that, a game. It has no powers to talk to anyone living or dead. It is your imagination that make you believe it talks to you.

Answer 4

It's just a game, it's not real.

So sorry to break the horrible news to you.

Answer 5

Uhhmm. Wrong Category. You shouldn't be using or playing with those boards. It's better to keep it where it kept. You need to do that. Or else something freakin' creepier will happen.

Answer 6

Never heard of mama but I wouldn't mess with them...One time I was playing a Ouiji board alone because I wanted to see if it was just my friend moveing it or if it was actually a "spirit". It worked and it was very strong. At first it said it was Denny which is someone I knew who had died's nic name. After a while it started saying " f**k you, f**k you" and I asked who it was and it started saying things that didnt make sence like just jibberish.. I put it down and then my friend decided to join me so I picked it back up again. I asked it if I could talk to the last spirit I was talking to and it said Lucifer which is another term for satan. Then my cousin in the back ground who wasn't even playing said out loud " yeah right if your Satan then why dont you show yourself you idiot, bring it to my house" .. she didn't believe in it. The Ouiji board responded with " I am already there". We all ran out and went to my house for the night.... Ever since then they have seen 4 ghosts there, even there skeptic father saw one and now is a beliver!!! anyways.. they ended up moveing a few months ago so its not so bad...

I used the ouija board a number of times many years ago and nothing happened.  Nothing happened when other people I know used a ouija board.  The ouija board is just a game that you can buy in most toy stores and department stores, an ordinary piece of wood or plastic or cardboard.  It has no supernatural powers.  The people using it make it work.  It plays on your mind and imagination and your susceptibilities and beliefs and fears.  It can be scary because the imagination is a powerful thing, and can make you believe anything.  Here are a couple of links that discuss ouija boards.

Answer 8

I had one named Malem. It wanted this guy to kill me....

It was really scary. Be careful. I feel like something bad followed me for a long time.

Seriously, I think when you open your mind to things like that, it gives us a weak spot for evil to enter our lives and stay with us.

I know some people think it is just a silly game, but I believe if you believe-spirits and demons know and use that to get close to you.

My advise, DONT PLAY WITH IT ANYMORE
