played with one, burned it afterward, still have nightmares, and so do my friends. if this isnt creepy i dont know what is. but i was with a group of my friends none of them knew my grandmothers name, her real name. we called her nana and they were all on the board and we were joking that it wasnt real that everyone alwasy knows the answers and they asked what my grandmothers name was and it spelled it out. even her middle name which i didnt even know and i called and asked my mom what her full name was and the damn board got it right. we felt something of a presence in the room and we turned all the lights back on and put the thing in the fire place and burnt it to $#!T so if you want to play with it have fun but its real.

You've watched too much Ghost Whisperer but oh well, you can try calling them to you - play a game of Ouija. It might be dangerous if you don't know to how to play it, so I'd suggest you play it with a person who's experienced...\n\nYou won't exactly see a ghost, and you won't exactly be talking to it face-to-face, but the ghost will spell out whatever it's saying using the Ouija board.\n\nBy the way, the Ouija board is also good for asking about your future...

I'm Pagan and I believe they are very unsafe. I don't think there is any amount of protection you can call up to defend yourself from what you may encounter. Also, I have never once heard any success story from using a Ouija board. I have only ever heard about bad experiences from using them.

Ouija (pronounced wee-juh or wee-jee) refers to the belief that one can receive messages during a séance by the use of a Ouija board (also called a talking board or spirit board) and planchette. The fingers of the participants are placed on the planchette which then moves about a board covered with numbers, letters and symbols so as to spell out messages.\n\nOuija is a trademark for a talking board currently sold by Parker Brothers. While the word is not a genericized trademark, it has become a trademark which is often used generically to refer to any talking board.\n\nA Ouija board is operated by one or more users. They place the planchette on the board and then rest their fingers on the planchette. The users start moving the planchette around the board and speaking to the entity (or entities) they wish to summon; They then begin asking questions of it. Eventually the planchette will come to rest on one letter after another, spelling out a message. Often an additional participant records the messages on paper. As with automatic writing, the messages are often vague and open to interpretation, or complete gibberish.\n\nSome talking boards have words or phrases written on them to simplify the interpretation of the messages. Tarot, zodiac, and other esoteric symbols are frequently incorporated into talking board's design, along with dramatic and mystical artwork. Some users prefer to improvise their own Ouija board. They may use a sheet of paper with the alphabet written on it or lettered cards placed around a table, together with an object like an overturned glass or coin as the indicator. Hand-made Ouija boards produced by artists are valued by talking board enthusiasts and collectors.\n\nMany users feel that the spirit with whom they are communicating is controlling their motions to guide their hands, spelling out messages. They see the board as a tool or medium through which they communicate with the spirit realm. These believers often take offense at the dismissal of the talking board as merely a game. Other users contend that they are in control of their own actions, but that the talking board allows communication with their inner psychic voice or subconscious.\n\nSome proponents of Ouija boards claim the activity is harmless fun. Others believe that they are communicating with spiritual entities but there is no harm in doing so provided that basic guidelines are followed. These rules often vary from user to user, but usually include things like never playing alone, beginning and ending a séance "properly", and always using the board in a "comfortable" environment. Numerous superstitions surround Ouija board use.\n\nFrom Wikipedia.  Ouija boards scare me.

Yes, my last house was haunted by the spirit of the woman who had died there in 1999.  I had never seen a picture of her.  My mother in-law inherited the house from her, and we moved into it.  My infant son was staying in the room next to ours which was in the process of being changed from the office.  This room held a few computer cables in the box about two feet from his bed. \nAt four thirty in the morning, I heard a woman say very clearly, "The baby..."  I figured I was dreaming and went back to sleep.  A very cold hand touched my arm and shook me.  I woke up and there was a woman I'd never seen before with curly shoulder length red hair in a blue bathrobe.  As I realized I could see through her, she pointed and said, "The baby is in trouble." \nI'm pretty freaked out by this point, but I run out to the baby's room.  Somehow, he'd managed to pull a cord out of the box and it was wrapped around him.  He couldn't move.  He couldn't cry.  I unwrapped him, picked him up, and turned around, crying.  The woman was still there, crying as well.  I said, "Thanks..." in a very shaky voice.  She nodded, and vanished.  My husband walks into the room a few minutes later looking for me.  I told him what happened.  He asked if I was very sure of what she looked like.  I said, "Of course I am.. the woman saved our baby!"\n\nThe next day his mother arrived with a photo albumn.  Looking through it, I saw a picture and asked her who it was.  It was the woman she inherited the house from, a friend who happened to be a former elemenentary school student.  She died in the very room where my son was staying.  Her grandson also used to stay in that room.  And yes, that was the woman who woke me up.

Oh man I got one!!  We snuck in around midnight I think and we brought our OUIJA board with us.  So we asked the OUIJA board if it was trying to reach us.  It said yes.  2 seconds later a phone starts ringing somewhere within the cemetary but there was none.  We freaked out!!

yes, my brother and i used to play ouija with our idiot cousin keith all the time.  my brother and i would always make it spell out "keith must die".  keith was so stupid he'd go running to his mom crying and my brother and i would about bust a gut laughing.  \n\ni don't think they are real.  i've talked with others who are creeped out by them.  my wife went to a seance once and they used a ouija board.  she got so freaked out that she won't even allow one in the house now.  according to her, (i wasn't there.  if i had been there the board would've spelled out 'Keith must die')  the room got real cold and the board spelled out 'please help me stay dead'.\n\nwhoa, that's a creepy enough message that i don't think anyone living would come up with it.  but then again, VERY FEW living people have had the board always spell out "KEITH MUST DIE".

No. But I have had past experiences with ghosts and currently I have one that likes to make a noise in my ear, it almost sounds like someone is shuffling cards and it always touches my head at the same time. The strange thing is that it happened to me when I lived in Beverly, then I moved to S. Hamilton and it is happening here so whatever it is followed me.\nI would love to hear more about it though

Of course they do exist. This is one of the biggest mystery on earth and they do form part of the paranormal phenomena. At 14 years old, my parents and I moved in a new house. We were not aware of course that this house was haunted by some spirits. At night i was not able to sleep properly, i was able to hear strange noises and even someone uttering words in my ears. I was even unable to concentrate at school and was sleepy in class. Four days later, when we were having dinner i decided to tell my parents about those strange noises and the feeling that we were not alone in this house. I was much surprised when they told me they didn't hear anything suspect and it can be my imagination.\nHowever i had persisted and wanted to sleep in their room for the night. I had slept in their room for two days and there was no strange noises or voices. The next day i have took the courage to sleep again in my rooms in the hope that i was just an illusion i had felt. But each time i came into my room i was able to feel like a presence there. It was like someone consistently observing me. And at night at about 0.45 am ,this time i felt like someone pulling my bed sheet and was even able to hear someone walking and uttering strange words. This was driving me crazy and i had kept my eyes close and had been praying aloud till 4 am.\nI had woke up at about 7 am when it was bright outside and ran into my parents room. I had told them that i would never slept in this room and wanted to leave this house. My dad was shocked and decided that it would be better to call a medium. So he did it, the medium ( a woman) came later this very same day, and the moment she stepped in my room i had had goosebumps when she told us that there is a spirit there. She had tried to communicate with the spirits, she had lighted candles mostly everywhere and sitting on a sofa in my room, she had closed her eyes. She was in communication with the spirit and had asked it many questions. At last i had learned that it was a child ( a girl), around 11 years old who died in the year 1955 in my room. It might be that she had died of a disease. She was jealous of me and hated me because i was occupying her room. This story had drived me and my parents crazy. The medium did something to make the spirit left this house and found its way. The same night my mum came to sleep with me in my room and i was able to sleep properly. Then after i was able to sleep properly alone in my room till today. \nPeople who have never witnessed paranormal phenomena can confirmed that ghosts or spirits do not exist. But I am more than 100% confident that It does exist and it is mostly everywhere not only in cemetry. I have read books and see many articles and even watch discovery channel. Spirits are there, one cannot see it with naked eyes but can feel it. I am sure of a thing that those who dies in other conditions than a natural death do haunt this world.

One time on a camping trip I was walking back from the bathrooms at that moment right between day and night and I saw someone walk across the front of the site and stop behind a tree. So I figure one of the people is going to jump out and try to surprise me, so I pull out my flashlight, walk up to the tree, turn on the light, and there's no one there.\n\nAs a child the chandelier used to swing from side to side, and the radio would turn on by itself in the middle of the night.\n\nOne time I was alone in a house, and I felt a presence. I looked a mobile hanging motionless, and said, "If there is anyone else here, make the mobile spin." The next moment, the mobile began to spin.\n\nI rarely ever actually see ghosts, but one time I was driving into Ponca State Park to set up a Pagan festival, and the sides of the road were lined with spirits. All standing there, calmly welcoming us back.\n\nMy grandmother died while my niece was in utero. After my niece was born, she would look up at areas where no one was standing, and laugh and giggle. We all knew that she was looking at gramma, so we never showed her any pictures. Finally, at about a year old, she could speak, and my sister showed her the family photo album. My niece picked out her photo and said, "That's Old Gramma."

This is very important (and controversial I am sure):  a ouija board does not lead anyone anywhere.  I believe the only power that a ouija board has is the 'spirit' of the person(s) using it.  Please don't freak out over this answer, it's important to remember they are mass produced (for the most part) and sold in toy stores.  They are not a direct link to Jesus or satan.

When I was 9 I use to play in the woods/swamp behind my house. A typical 9 year old,  Me and my friends would make trails and "tree-forts" through the woods. \n\nOne day we came across a very strange scene. An area of low-growing palms had been cleared in a circle about 20FT in diameter. In the middle, was a ouija-board. There were also a couple of empty Jack Daniels bottles. \n\nThis place just had a "creepy" feeling about it. Me and My friends buried the "board", and waited for the 20ft circle to "grow-back".  It never did! It took YEARS for that circle to grow back! \n\nIn North Florida ,vegetation grows back quick! Very strange!\n\nThats the only run-in with a Ouija-board I ever had.

I have seen ghost twice in my life. The first time was very scary because I didn't believe my eyes, so closed them and then opened them again and he was still there. Also it was the middle of the day. Second time I woke up from a sound sleep and there was a black shape leaning over me. I tried pedaling backwards across the bed and screaming for my husband but no sound would come out. I couldn't force any sound from my mouth for the life of me and at the moment I thought it was my life at stake. Very scary, very real. My youngest child has claimed to seen different people on many occasions when no one was even there. Some say imagination some say children haven't shut down yet to that part of themselves.

I had one with my sister and cousin few weeks ago. But my sister help out, cuz she speak and see the dead. That made it more excited. But anyway, we got tea light candles and made a wide circle around us with them. \nThen we turn the lights out and held hands. Then one will be the spokeperson and call out to the spirits. One person will be the gateway, or the door for the spirits to come thru. But be careful, like the other person said. Some spirits ain't all nice either. \nIf you want a playing board with a playing piece. Then you can use that in your little seance. If you can't afford one, then use notebook paper pieces. Just do the letters and numbers. Along with the yes and no and goodbye as well. \nThen tear the piece apart from one another, and use on a flat surface. Like a table or anything hard. Then use a shot glass or a medium shot glass for the playing piece. But we done that twice and we love to have candles as well burning when we play it. \nBefore we got started, we always bless ourselfs. Have fun and be careful.
