   Parker Brothers did not invent the Ouija Board. It had already been around for awhile when it was bought by Parker Brothers in 1966 and turned into a commercial success as a board game. Its beginnings lie in the distant past when an earlier version (a tripod device) was used in the ancient ways of Babylon and Greece to contact departed spirits. The tripod became the pointer now used with the Board, which is printed with the alphabet, the numbers 1-9, a 0 (zero), and the words 'Goodbye', 'Yes', and 'No'. There are other boards like this with different names, but with the same history and purpose. The modern version of this game was developed by a man named Planchette, a spiritualist (someone who contacts the dead as part of their religion). The Board was further transformed around the turn of the century under the direction and ownership of two men, Elijah J. Bond and William Fuld. Fuld’s name can be seen on the Ouija Board today. The name Ouija is a combination of the French and German words for 'yes': Oui and Ja. According to Bond and Fuld, the Board suggested its own name. The primary purpose of the board is and always has been to contact disembodied spirits. Contacting the dead is called necromancy, and contacting spirits is spiritism, both strongly condemned by God (Deut. 18:9-12; Lev. 19:31, 20:6; I Sam 28, II Kings 21:6; Is. 8:19, 19:3-4). The Board’s translated name, 'yes, yes', is an ingenious and subtle way to invite spirit contact. Dead people cannot hang around after death; you cannot communicate with a dead person. The practices and techniques of contacting the dead and contacting spirits are used widely in the occult. Although the pointer is often moved intentionally or subconsciously by the players, you are putting yourself in a vulnerable position when using the Board. By 'playing' this 'game', you are showing an interest in spirit contact. If contact is made, it is demons (evil spirits, fallen angels), not the dead, who are responding. If Satan can disguise himself as "an angel of light" (2 Cor. 11:14), then it is not improbable that fallen angels can disguise themselves as the dead. The Ouija Board is not harmless just because it is marketed as a game. Satan, the master of deception and seduction, is good at twisting the truth into lies (Gen. 3:1-6; Jn. 8:44). Satan likes disguises and his lies are often disguised as games. The next time you are tempted to play the Ouija Board as a game, look beyond its disguise and see it for what it really is. Think about this: Just what or who are you trying to contact? God tells us to seek Him instead of the dead (Is. 8:19), and Christ "lives forever to plead with God" on behalf of those who believe Him (Heb. 7:25). Who wants the Ouija Board when you can know the One Who has "complete authority in heaven and on earth!" (Matt.28:18). If you are wondering about Christ, think on His words in John 5:23-24, "He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father , who sent him. I tell you the truth, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life."

   Yea, real smart , open the door to sprits,,,
   
   You know not everyone of them are alright! I would think twice!!
   
   Here is why!!
   
   We will begin our Ouija stories with an explanation of how and why Ouija boards work. There are two schools of thought on the subject.
   
   The Spiritualist Theory
   
   A school of thought which states that all Ouija information is channelled (or 'divined' for you purists) from an outside source. This source has been variously defined as ghosts, spirit guides, the astral plane, manifestations of deceased relatives and friends,or if you're a fundamentalist Christian your old pal Satan.
   
   The Automatistic Theory
   
   It holds that all information
   
   gained from a Ouija board comes from within.
   
   In other words, the Ouija board allows you to access answers that you already have, but cannot get to on a conscious level. The planchette spells the answers via subconscious ideomotor movements from the operator. Other examples of automatism include dreams, dowsing, and psychosomatic illness.
   
   Ther are many references to the Ouija in 'literature'. Susy Smith in Confessions of a Psychic (1971) claims that using a Ouija board caused her to become mentally disturbed. In Thirty Years Among the Dead (1924), American psychiatrist Dr. Carl Wickland claims that using the Ouija board "resulted in such wild insanity that commitment to asylums was necessitated."
   
   It seems to me that one would have to be somewhat disturbed to begin with. If a person truly believes that they are talking to the dead,
   
   then they will get answers which support that idea.
   
   Some of which may be truly unexplainable.
   
   If they believe that Satan's minions are at the other end of their Ouija board, then they will contact other little devils.
   
   --------------------------------------...
   
   We receive at least 5 emails a week from readers. Many of these people describe receiving foul language and threats of death and horror through the Ouija.
   
   Honestly, It's so much easier to blame an inanimate object (or the unknown such as 'Satan') for our fears, and sometimes vile words and thoughts, than to admit these feelings come from one of us. No human being likes to admit to their dark side and fears (many times translated into anger).
   
   As with anything, from Rock and Roll Music to guns to religion there is a possibility of abuse.
   
   Would you give booze or a sharp object to an unbalanced person? Well, you might but I wouldn't. Alas, Ouija boards are easily available and exert the lure of the forbidden to those with terminal angst and psychiatric disorders.
   
   Now that you have a little background, feel free to divine the veracity of the following Ouija Stories
   
   Classic Ouija Board Stories
   
   A Famous Ouija Storey
   
   In 1917 The Sorry Tale was published. This novel, which was about the life of Jesus, was a huge critical and commercial success. The author was Patience Worth. Well actually, as Patience had been dead for some 400 years, the story was channelled through a Ouija board to Pearl Curran.
   
   In 1912 Pearl and a friend began using a Ouija board and "met" Patience Worth during a Ouija session.
   
   Pearl eventually published 5 full-length novels and 2500 poems.
   
   Curran had received only 8 years of formal schooling, but the writings of Patience Worth were commented on by The New York Times, Chicago Tribune, and other leading newspapers as being written with "skill, ingenuity, and permeated with spiritual beauty".
   
   Go figure.
   
   The Second Most Famous Ouija Story
   
   In 1965, 14 year old Kathleen and 2 of her girlfriends were playing with a Ouija board.
   
   Kathleen asked "who will I marry?"
   
   The Ouija board answered "Dave".
   
   Kathleen asked again. She didn't know anyone named Dave, and her boyfriend's name was Billy.
   
   The Ouija board again spelled out D-A-V-E
   
   Kathleen asked "Where is Billy", knowing that he was at his job in town.
   
   This time the board spelled D-E-A-T-H
   
   Kathleen and her friends were skeptical and asked again. With the same result.
   
   Later that night Kathleen's mother came into her room, to tell her that Billy had been killed in a car accident on his way to work that afternoon.
   
   Kathleen is today happily married to Dave Stephens.
   
   Attention: This is not a true story. I don't care WHO told you about it. It is the best apocryphal Ouija story going though. I have personally received this one and at least 15 others which used the same basic story line, but the names were changed to protect the gullible. When compared to the First Story it's like judging Grapes of Wrath against The Hook. Even so, this bit of urban legend has become a standard and continues to make its way though High Schools and chat rooms all over the world.
   
   After the appearance of The Exorcist in 1972, many people were encouraged to believe that a Ouija board could "possess" the user. Until that time most people considered the channelling of Ouija information to be benign.
   
   With this change in perception, the Ouija user as 'victim' of the board rather than 'recipient', more gory and inadvertently amusing stories began to emerge.
   
   To the ignorant and gullible there were manifest signs of demon possession and evil. From the board that told the user to kill her husband for the insurance money (she was taken into police custody before the plan was implemented) to the teenager who is addicted to the Ouija and writes for help.
   
   The fad of demonic possession has tapered, but there are still some stories around. Most are laughably contrived. The funniest one that I have ever seen is called The Exorcism: Tract#266 and can be read online. The poor girl in this story needs immediate psychiatric help. She is obviously not possessed by a demon. However, the writer of this story was clearly possessed;
   
   by the absurd idea that he was literate.
   
   On the bright side, Ouija boards are also available to those of sound (ha!) mind and body. So grab your Ouija, light a candle, and start developing some Ouija stories of your own.

   Hi. I"m 13 and just a few days ago me and my cousin got out the old ouja board. it was a very old one that belonged to our parents when they were kids. we had been asking it many questions and a while into the "game" we had to know whether it really worked or not. We were going to a baseball game later and we asked what the score would be and if our team would lose or not. It said they would lose 1 to 2. Sure enough they lost 1 to 2 in extra innings! I am just waiting for the other questions to come true....like maybe my next boyfriend. heehee Laura, Washington

   Hello... First off, I'd like to preface this by saying that I am not crazy. When I was in my late teens, my friends and I went through a phase where we were facinated by the ouija board. We all took turns; in pairs, using it and I'll tell you that it really did seem to work. One sensation that was always present in me when the thing was really "cooking", was a sort of heaviness/tingling in the face, accompanied by a slight tearing in the eyes. Does this sound familiar to you? Anyway, the thing that got to me one time, was when the person I was using it with got up to go to the bathroom, and I swear to you the thing seemed to be operating on it's own!
