  1. The Ouija board is neither good nor bad.  It's just a thing.  Like salt is bad if you have high blood pressure, but good if your electrolytes are low.  Ultimately it is a question of perspective.

    Remember, there is no proof that people experience unexplained events, only claims.  And the simple fact is that once people want to see something, they see it everywhere.

    Think of it this way, have you ever bought a new car, or perhaps an iPod?  Ever notice how after you bought, you began to notice more and more people with the same object.  The same color/model, or the same brand, but in a different style.  The type of object doesn't matter, the principle is the same.  Once we get our minds thinking about a certain object (or subject) they continue noticing everything related to it until we stop them.

    So, once people play with an Ouija board, and think that there may be some supernatural consequences, they begin to experience them everywhere- even though these things are happening no more or less often than they were before.

    I hope that makes sense = )

    For an interesting discussion of the Ouija board, please read on.

    Is the Ouija board real?

    This is really a question of perspective. Here's what I mean:

    Of course the Ouija board is real. It is detectable by all 5 senses.

    But if the real question is, does it have any supernatural powers, the answer is almost always, no.

    The vast majority of "supernatural" experiences with the Ouija board occur in groups of people- usually three or more. The actual dynamics of what happens quite common.

    Think of what happens when a large fight breaks out. Afterward, nobody can remember who started it. Or at least, there are many different accounts of what happened. Even if the fight only lasted a few seconds.

    In principle, this is what is happening with the Ouija board. Everyone is adding input into a system expecting it to move. When it does move, it may not move in the direction anyone expects because the ultimate expression of that motion is the sum of all the input. Thus, every person playing may actually believe he/she is not actually causing the pointer to move. It can truly seem to have a 'life of its own'!

    But in reality, it is simply a toy that plays upon simple group dynamics for its entertainment value. That is what has made it such a popular object for so long- the fact that it is rooted in simplicity.

    Encounters with these sorts of toys can produce all kinds of emotion. Adding a spooky atmosphere and music can heighten these effects. It can even be fun at times. But it's like a magic trick. Often times, these sorts of things are more fun when we don't understand how they work- because then, they can still capture our imaginations.

    As a side note, you should know that there are many people who believe that the Ouija board is a conduit for supernatural and even evil forces. Many hold fast to this belief, even in the face of evidence to the contrary.

    To this, I can only say that if there truly are evil forces out there determined to do us harm, I think they'd have better means of attacking us than through a child's toy. And- if by some crazy chance that I am wrong, then I still don't think that I would be very scared of any evil force whose power was limited to a board game.

    I hope this answer helped you.


  2. It is because they are demonic.  PLEASE do not get involved with it.  It doesn't bring any spirits up from people who are dead, only demonic spirits that are against you.  This is not a good thing.  The spirits are real.  It is kind of like witch craft.

  3. I think its mostly in ppls heads . i watched a documentary one night on haunting ..they put one group of ppl in this room and told them that it was haunted everyone that goes in there has seen something ..and of course they did ....the next night they put a 2nd group in and mentioned nothing ..they had a good nights sleep

    Humans are very easy to trick buy plating information in there head

    If you have been playing this game and you cant explain why it worked you are gonna be open the suggestions it gives you . Treat it like the silly board game it is and theres np  

  4. Remember the exorcist movie well that is real and it all started by playing that.

  5. MCR? Rock on. ^ ^ <3

    I really don't get it either! I'd really like to play once and just see what it's all about but nobody will do it with me! If you want, I've asked questions about Ouija before and you can look at the answers on my page.  

  6. The ouija board is not bad and is not an opening to the underworld.  The people who experience unexplainable events in the night probably have very vivid imaginations.

    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 is meant for two or more players so it will not work very well if you try to use it alone.  It has no supernatural powers.  The people using the ouija board make it work through ideomotor movement.  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 just about anything.  Here are a couple of links that discuss ouija boards and how to use them.  

  7. Ok. A Ouiji board is bad because it pisses off dead spirits.

    They have actually measured the level of energy rise in a room when a person uses a Ouija board. This is related to opening a median to another dimension, a spiritual dimension if you will. You think of outer space as and gravity as "oh, well that object is big so little objects are attracted to it. Well, there is much more to that. Space isn't actually space, its a physical thing. Think of a bed sheet tied to four different stakes.if you put a marble on the tight sheet, it will role to the middle of the sheet. Now put another marble on the sheet, and it goes near the previous marble. So, space is literally a fabric and holes through that fabric occur and well you get some nasty @%& through those holes. So by some crazy complexion energy from the deceased is attracted to Ouija boards.  

  8. its not! a piece of cardboard & some plastic will not induce unexplainable events
