People who believe the ouija board moves as a result of spirits being present..?

Question

... and not as a result of the ideomotor effect. Have you tried using the board while blindfolded and proving the skeptics wrong?

Answer 1

my advice is don't think about using an Ouija board they curse your house just like bad voodoo dolls

Answer 2

My mum used an ouija board when she was younger and the glass next to her flew and smashed against the wall. The next day a priest came by to hand out bibles to the neighborhood and got scared at their door and started blessing the house because there was bad spirits hanging around.

Answer 3

I believe in spirits and hauntings but I don't delve into Ouija boards and such I have had many experiences without these objects.There will always be sceptics in any form of the unknown realms on earth and heaven.

Answer 4

Yes I believe that Ouija boards do work, and spirits do make them move.  However, I also do believe that a lot of people do fake it.  The problems that people experience is often inexperience in these things and do not know how to protect themselves.  My suggestion is that if you do not know what you are doing, dint mess with them.  If you want to try it, always try with experienced people.  You can find lots of yahoo paranormal groups, and I would suggest starting there.

IF IN DOUBT<> DONT MESS ABOUT

Answer 5

I have never used one and do not condone their usage. I have heard many odd stories, however. I have been ghost hunting for 6 years now and one of the stories I came across was a pair of sisters about 17 years of age who decided to use one. They came into contact with a ghost named "charlie" who was very friendly, but then after communicating with him for about a week, it went all wrong as he revealed himself to them as a demonic entity. So, those things can be scary!

Answer 6

Jonquill, In 9th grade I used a Ouija Board quite a few times. It only moved a couple times, most of the time it did not move at all. The one time that stands out is when it really seemed to work. My sister would ask questions, her reaction was that I had to have had read her diary which I did not. I admit she could of been doing it, but it did not seem like it from her reaction. Then I made everyone shut up and asked questions in my head, it was freaky b/c it answered them all correct, not yes and no questions either. Then over the course of the next 10 years, what that board has told me has come true exactly, I mean ****** up **** too, that I could of never imagined as a teenager. I have said this before, it could be possible that I subconsciously made the events happen b/c of the ideomotor effect of the board but I seriously doubt it. My mind is made up, that **** is evil.

Since I have had a paranormal experience, that is somewhat reassuring that there is something out there, something that could make contact through a Ouija Board.

Answer 7

When my bestfriend and I were 11 we had my uncles ouija board at her house. She lived on a farm that was many acres big and their house was on the very back of the property in a corner. Anyways one night we decided to try it out of boredom. It didn't work the first time a few hours later we tried again and it spelled out a name, it was lewis. That is all that happened, just the name.  We both of course thought it was the other moving it and the next day asked her dad about that name his family owned that land since the 1800's. He told us about a slave his great grandparents had named grady lewis whom they never really treated like a slave though he was. He had his own bedroom in the old house, was treated like a member of the family although technically they owned him. He went on to tell about the nightmares his grandmother had when he just disappeared one day. They never found out what happened to him. We freaked her dad out by mentioning that name. We never told him that we were messing with the ouija board cause they would be mad at us. It's just a weird little story that we share to this day.

Answer 8

your stories are creeping me out

Answer 9

Sorry..I won't do that because I won't do it again...now that I realize what was happening. I just thought of a question about this.....Watch for it.

Edit...I'm posting it on Parapsychology.

Answer 10

Ive tested them by doing them with children who couldnt spell yet..and it spelled out entire paragraphs, correctly.

Answer 11

Do they make boards in the Chinese language? Gotta be huge and the users would get a workout.

Answer 12

The Ouija Board is a Satanic tool in order to contact bad spirits...

They are afraid to cross over because they know they are going to h**l...

Any sin committed while on earth will send you to h**l... unless you accept Jesus and ask for forgiveness...

suicide is also a sin and you are locked out of the gates of heaven for taking your own life! we don't have the right to take a life, including our own...

STAY AWAY FROM OUIJA BOARDS OR ANY OTHER SATANIC FORM OF COMMUNICATION...

If you see or hear spirits its different... its a gift... but if you don't have that gift and you go searching for communication of the afterlife... you are inviting bad trouble...

Some people become possessed by demons or that particular spirit...

And the only way to rid some of these possessions is by conducting an exorcism...

Peace :)

Answer 13

my ma and my friend used a Ouija board and i was freakin out dude! i mean freakin out! it was creepie too!!!!!!!!!!!

i never want to see one ever again!

Answer 14

Actually I don't believe Oujia board. I never owned one. But when I was in highschool, we made one out of coins and white board. We drew the outline of the coin and fill in the alphabets and numbers in the circle. We drew the circle around the board..and in the middle we drew 3 circles and wrote yes,no and home. Here they call it spirit of the coin. Works just like Ouijia.

My friends and I had our fingers on the coin and called the spirit. The coin moved after a few calls.

We played at our school garden. The dogs were barking, it started to drizzle a little then stop... then the coin moved. It was a girl, she claimed she was raped and she commit suicide near our school hall...in 1964. She hung herself.

My friends started asking silly questions. I freaked out but never took my finger off the coin.

After that we had episodes of BAD LUCK! I lost my bicycle, got scolding from my teacher, I was slacking in my studies..it lasted for a week I think. I then swore never to touch the board.

So Yes..is answer to your question.

Answer 15

Does the ouija board 'work'? Yes.

Does it provide you with good information? No.

Why? Because the only spirits you can contact are on the lower planes (closest to the earth) and they are usually trickster spirits.

They will just mess with you.

Why do they mess with you?

Because they feed off of your energy.

Just like we eat food to have energy - spirits take in your energy for their own type of food to be stronger.

So what will you get from playing with Ouija?

Feeling dizzy/drained

Addiction to the board (Because spirits/demons will want you to be so they can feed off of you)

Inaccurate Information

Emotional Problems

Possibly opening a portal for demons/bad spirits to come through

Possession

Is it worth it? No

Should TOYS R US sell it? No
