Re: The Ouija board
I've used one and it was a bit spooky to me but one time my sister and some friends used it in a garage and things were flying around and it got a bit crazy. She was quite freaked out over it.Member of the Official OS Bills Backers Club

Re: The Ouija board
and I trust that you are not on drugs haha :P
My mother is a sane woman. Even she is freaked out because I told her I was going to get it. She said she ended up with a angry spirit/demon and it got so intense she had to leave. I told her that it's going to stay in my apartment, but all she said was "I do not want you to get hurt"
This is coming from a woman who is agnostic. I am not religious at all.
When she said that I was like hell yes!
I also heard things about leprachauns and stuff...Any truth to that? Cannot believe I asked that.
It's already freakin me out...And I am pretty level headed.Comment

Re: The Ouija board
What I'll do is keep you updated. This should be a experience. I'll be using this for the next couple of days and tell you what happens or what does not.
The reason I bought it is because I heard of this...And I personally believe you should try something you feel that you should.Comment

Re: The Ouija board
If there really is an afterlife, I'll bet the best way to contact it is through a plastic, mass-produced board game from Milton Bradley! --Mad MagazinePeople think that it is the supernatural that is behind the movement of the plank, but it is the user, either consciously or unconsciously who is the one that moves it. Simple little experiments have showed this, for example, try to have someone blindfolded while using the board, while a bystander who isn't blindfolded takes notes on what words or letters are selected, usually the results are completely unintelligible.
Another one is to try blindfold the users and flip the board upside down without their knowledge, and again, it spells absolute nonsense. One has to wonder why any spirit of demon would be fooled by this little trick.
"The movement of the planchette is not due to spirits but to unconscious movements by those controlling the pointer. The same kind of unconscious movement is at work in such things as dowsing and facilitated communication"
This is what's known as the ideomotor effect: "a psychological phenomenon wherein a subject makes motions unconsciously. As in reflexive responses to pain, the body sometimes reacts reflexively to ideas alone without the person consciously deciding to take action. For instance, tears are produced by the body unconsciously in reaction to the emotion of sadness."
Religious folk and me are in agreement that kids should stay away from these boards, but for very different reasons. To the Christian, using these boards is dabbling into the occult, it is a rebellion against God in the sense that you are consulting 'unclean spirits' for knowledge or wisdom that one should only ask from God. At least that was what I was always told. I on the other hand, think kids should be taught to stay away from these things because they encourage superstitious thinking. Kids should get better hobbies than wasting their money on these wooden pieces of junk and attributing any minor muscle movement to the supernatural.
It is possible that part of the appeal of these things is that they provide comfort and hope to those who have lost loved ones in their past, it fills them with the hope that they'll be able to contact their lost relatives again, and as with everything in the world today, there will always be an entrepreneur just waiting to capitalize on this grief, and that's what psychics and game companies like these do.
