I'm not supposed to use one, it's against my religion, since it's like. "possesed with demonic spirits" and all...
I wouldn't want to ever use one anyway, it would creep me out 0_o

sometimes people are jerks and just push it, but usually the moving of the thingie is sub-conscious. or it actually be spirits moving it. oohh...

I like Ouija Boards...I think they really work. I hate it when your friend is moving it...

My friends and I made one in 6th grade once. They kept asking how old we'll be when we die (from what I've read, you aren't suppose to). Then when I was at home I felt like I was being watched, it was really creepy. I had to leave class for speech (I had trouble with sh, th and ch words, lol). When I came back to class, one of the 7th graders had torn it in half and thrown it away. I don't know it anyone said Goodbye before she did that.

One or two of my friends didn't touch it, they just watched.

Then like, a week later or something we were talking about it and this dude heard us and said we were being watched by demons and he told us to never use them again, lol.

I've used the online one, I don't think that one really works.


Oh, and in 7th grade when we had free time in our computer class, I would search things and go to sites talking about Ouija Boards. It seemed like someone was kicking the computer desk since my row kept making noise. I was the only one in my row...so I got creeped out.

I also did a research project on Ouija Boards in that class, this is one of the sites I went to:

I went to the online one once during class, these two dudes saw and they were like,"Oh my god! Look!" Then they asked it when the world was going to end, it said,"Spring" then the dudes started like, running in circles and freaked everyone else out. It was funny.

It's usually the sub-concious, actually small little muscle 'twitches' you cannot feel or are aware of, but since you are thinking of the pointer-thing moving, your brain subconciously makes your arm move ever so slightly, and since playing with a ouiji board can create a sort of group/pack follow-the-leader mindset, once the pointer moves a little, everyone else also moves it a little and can be completly unaware of their control over their arms. The group mentalitly can also creatge or amplify group hysteria, if everyone at the table is scared of 'spirits'.

That or a person in the group can mess with everyone else. Good times.

Of course, a great experiment is to blindfold everyone at the table then do it. But without telling anyone, place the board upside down (once they are blindfolded, of course). When they answer (for it is the participants, not 'spirits') they will move the pointer to where letters or yes and no used to be, the pointer often on a blank space.. It's fantastically funny.


Just ermember, it's just a game. I sort of dislike when poeple spread hysteria by saying that 'oooooooh, evil spirits, be careful, I did it and *insert story here*' because like I said, that just makes people be scared of things they shouldn't and that do not exist. It's sort of mean. In my opinion anyway.

It's a paice of cardboard for goodness sakes.
