Though I believe in a spirit world and the afterlife and angels and all that, I also don't think a Ouija board is a good idea at all. I have never used one and don't plan to. It's no different from a Seance IMO. However, I'm not sure what it means if you get signs from someone who has passed on or if they appear in your dreams when you are NOT asking for it, but you get messages from it that turn out to be true in the future. Some can argue that is a gift, and others may say it's a bad spirit posing as the person, but how can it be bad if it's telling you something good or you wished you knew they were okay and you got it without looking?

Let's see if you have the balls to do a Ouija session inside a cave in Jordania with some crazy people led by a wacko who embraces Christianism/Islam/Hinduism

oh, and why DO demons hate us so much?

Yeah, just once it'd be cool if you came home from work and the demons were like "Hey, I was fucking around with your things while you were out and made you a lovely casserole."

Of course, I feel the same way about kids too.

Teach them well, under an iron fist. You might not get casseroles, but ours have made us cakes and fried chicken while we were out.

Our kids, not our demons. Those fuckers only cooked our cat and put my dildos in the freezer.

"see!!! I told you it wasn't a torch!"

my kids/demons, same things

Today they found all the music video props in the garage (and nearly their christmas presents ) and treated me to an impromtu play - Oscar was the great magician and Max was his princess HE DANCED with a feather mask on and I nearly died laughing. I made him do it about 5 more times, each time he was more flamboyant

OK. I was also a bit tipsy.

Fiona.........First the title of ur thread.........Contacting the dead....This cannot b done Fiona the Holy Scriptures and the book of Ecclesiastes Chp 9 verse 5....But as for the dead,they are conscious of nothing at all.....U cannot talk 2 the dead Fiona............So when using a Ouija board who is communicating with u Fiona??Now this is the serious and dangerous part of the Ouija board!!!

When Satan was cast out of the heavens other angels sided with satan,and took on fleshly bodies because they wanted 2 have sex on earth....These hybrib offspring were called Nephilim and were cruel violent bullies with great strength.

In the floods the Nephilim escaped destruction by turning back into the spirit realm where they were rejected by God......The objective of Satan and his Demons is to turn people away from God.

Hence these wicked forces have been misleading,frightening and assaulting people thru out history.

To entrap people demons use the spiritism in all its forms.

Attempts to communicate with the dead lead u in2 a trap..............And this is simply becuz the dead cant talk......Also look at Psalm 146:4.....................It is actually the demons that imitate the voice of the dead person..........Any1 communicating this way and being entrapped by wicked forces is acting contrary 2 the will of God..........Isaiah 8:19.

Reports have shown that Demons sexually harass people and drive others 2 insanity.They incite others 2 murder and even suicide which r sins against God.

Fiona all of this stuff is only helpful if u believe in God!But what alot of people 4get is that if u believe in God then u must believe in Satan.

........................................................Now Fiona in the early 80s eye was kicked out of home...Davetherave was a bad boy.....At this time eye isolated myself had no friends and was angry at the world and at other people.....Eye came in 2 the ownership of a very old wooden Ouija board...It was very heavy could of been oak or beech wood but it was a hell of a weight....2 this day eye remember the feeling eye got as eye held it....Eye felt powerful....comforted....and confident...Everyday eye would use the board and would never go outside....and would spend hours and hours talking 2 only God knows what????Eye wont go in2 to much detail Fiona but eye will leave u with this......Eye asked 4 money....Dave got money.......Eye asked 4 nice girlfriends Dave got nice girlfriends.......Eye asked 4 pain and hurt and heartbreak 2 any1 that crossed me,any1 who would dare ridicule me.......And Fiona these people felt pain and did have there hearts ripped out....Eye cannot or wont elaborate on any of these things.....God will judge me and show mercy as he knows my heart now.....This Ouija is real Fiona and is not a game and should never b taken lightly.....U will see things u wished ud never seen thru ur use of a Ouija board..........Eye must reiterate 2 u Fiona if u r thinking of messing around with a Ouija board eye hope 2 God something in my post has made u think better of it...........By taking an interest in Ouija the demons r already on 2 u Fiona and will groom u 2 do there bidding so plz after this thread leave this bad shit well alone....Eye hope all this has helped u take care Fiona and Jah bless u and watch over u......DaveTheRave

If you were dead and wanted to comunicate with the living (assuming such things are possible, or even that you believe they're possible, which is not the same thing) would you wait around for some idiots to buy a board game before you made contact? Total silliness.

"Occult ABC" by Kurt E. Koch is full of examinations of means used to contact the spirit world, and the horrific situations that can result.

I also recommend "They Shall Expel Demons" by Derek Prince.

But more than anything, I'm thankful for the authority of the believer in the Lord Jesus Christ, as spelled out in the Bible, over evil forces.

Not to mention, if you could exercise some level of physical control over the world, isn't there a more effective way than slowly spelling out words? Even texting is faster than a Ouija board! At least my phone has predictive text.

I understand what you mean, when you ask why a spirit (if it actually exists at all!) would wait for somebody to buy a board game to make contanct....

However, there is another side to that, I think. If spirits do exist, then they are without physical body, and exist as purely as energy. They are actually quite limited in how they can make their presence felt. How would a spirit make contact with people today, in their busy lives? We've all heard the so-called "symptoms" of a haunting... a sudden cold blast of air or breeze/feeling as though you've been touched somehow/things moving in your house or an item getting lost/seeing a figure or shadow which disappears in the blink of an eye. The list goes on. But how many of those things (IF they were down to paranormal phenomena) would we take as credible? Something went missing? Oh sure, I must have misplaced it. You felt a pair of hands on your shoulders? Probably my imagination. That cold spot of air right in the corner of my lounge? Well, the windows are shut, but I guess it just MUST be a draught.

What I am saying, essentially, is that to make contact is probably quite a hard thing to do for a spirit, if such a thing exists. Especially in today's modern, busy and technologically advanced world. So spirits NEED the kinds of people who are willing to sit down, quietly, study, listen, openly call for contact in a serious and respectful way. Surely only under THOSE kinds of circumstance, might they be listened to and acknowledged, without being so easily dismissed.

Well, I'm into horror, I like nothing more than a good scary story or movie, so naturally, I'm into anything related to seances, ouija boards etc.

I was wondering if any of you who have tried the Ouija Board would mind answering these questions, or at least sharing their experiences - whether good, bad, funny or frightening!?!

1. Have you used the Ouija Board, if so, was it just one time, or regularly?

2. Do you have any memorable experiences from having used it?

3. Would you say your experience was mostly positive or negative?

4. Do you believe you were genuinelly channelling spirits, or do you believe it was physical/psychological effects?

5. Do you regret having used the Ouija Board?

Thanks for answering guys!

1. Have you used the Ouija Board, if so, was it just one time, or regularly?

My experience revolved around a particular weekend in Nantucket (so 3-4 times over a 3-4 day period). I was in a band and Nantucket Island was a monthly destination for us (where we'd play 4-5 days at a clip. A really nice getaway for us and a time to unwind with long stretches of 'nothing to do'). There was alot of buzz among the bands on the circuit that Quija is something you MUST do while you're there...

2. Do you have any memorable experiences from having used it?

Yes, very memorable. I see alot of folks mentioned the Parker Bros. Quija board product/ game. With the intent to participate in the buzz, our band out of sheer boredom walked into town to visit the toy store. $36 US for a frickin Quija board??? No way Jose... Do not bother with the game/ product. The kinetic operation is ALL wrong. I'd encouage you to make your own (as I did).

One 24-30 inch round end table

One pizza box (thin stock, not corrugate cardboard)

One Sharpie (black Marker)

One pair of scissors

One metal cap (e.g. from 1 gallon grape juice bottle or snapple cap)

Cut out & label pieces from the pizza box (enough for A-Z, 0-9, Yes, No, (and please don't forget) 'good bye'.

Arrange pieces around the edge of the table (cap goes in the middle). Players face each other placing index and middle fingers on the cap.

A weak (for the sake of using a word) 'entity' will guide the cap slowly and haphazardly, unable to spell words. A stong entity will get the cap moving in a clockwise rotation (to the point where your shoulders will ache and the paint on the cap will wear down causing an eerie squealing sound). It will be able to spell out words, and answer direct questions...

3. Would you say your experience was mostly positive or negative?

I'd say enlightening siding on the positive only because the experience was exhilarating (YMMV.)

4. Do you believe you were genuinelly channelling spirits, or do you believe it was physical/psychological effects?

Well here's where it gets tricky. On one hand it's plausible that the players are subconsciously controlling the board (which in itself is an interesting phenomena). I myself was not forcing the cap in any direction and I also believe the people who I experienced this with (known for years/ trusted implicitly) were not forcing it either. Way too many combinations of people on the board that generated similar board movement, dialogue to think otherwise.

On the other hand here's some highlights of what we did 'find out' and I have 8-10 people who can corroborate the accounts:

One entity named names of our singers Aunt and Uncle whom he lived with as a young teenager (father left/ mother institutionalized). Singer was in our presence, and asked the board specifically 'who are you, really?' but he was NOT controlling the board. Those on the board could not have known these names to begin with. What is interesting is that the Aunt and Uncle were still alive and well...

After one our nightly performances we had some girls over. Nancy in particular was very good at asking questions (school teacher). We brought something in that claimed to be a little girl (4 years old). She claimed she was sad, not feeling well, not home, and had a number on her room. More questions sterred us to deduce that she was in the hospital (entity confirmed that was the case). Her first name was Nya (perhaps short for Cynthia) and her last name 'Ayers'. Nantucket was a Whaling/ fishing community and the Ayers name belongs to a prominent family on the Island in the 1800's.

My personal favorite revolves around our road manager, Mike Smith, commonly referred to as Smitty. Smitty could best be described as a tightly wound guy, quick to throw punches, a real clenched fist. You could imagine (and be correct) that he was very sceptical of this whole experience. Anyway, at some point during the night someone asked the board if there's anyone they want to talk to?

Board: 'Mike'

Us to Smitty (in next room): 'Hey Mike, somebody wants to talk to you?'

Smitty: 'Yeah right, ask it who the fuck it is'

Us to board: 'Who the fuck are you?'

Board spells Mike

Us to Smitty: 'Mike, Hey Smitty, looks like you want to talk to yourself'. 'Smitty?, Smitty, where are you? c'mon.... talk to the board...'

It turns out Smitty was lying on the kitchen floor sobbing uncontrollably. Mike (Smitty) had a nephew 'Mike' that was named after him and idolized him. Nephew Mike had died accidentally (O.D.) some years ago at the age of 14.

On one hand it was incredibly sad (that Smitty) was not only devasted by the death, but reliving it, and in a position where he might be able to communicate with his Nephew. On the other it was unbelievably funny/ ironic that the 'unbeliever' was confronted directly with his scepticism, where it hurt the most. A tried and true roughneck reduced to tears (and nobody in the room knew of this nephew... expect Smitty and the board).

Smitty (sobbing): 'Is that really you Mike?'

Board: 'Yes'

Smitty (sobbing): I love you Mike!'

Board: 'I miss you'

Smitty (sobbing): I miss you too!'

Board: 'Good Bye'

After the smoke cleared, Smitty was slightly fucked up for a bit. Was very distrustful of what transpired and either outright bolted or threatened to kick the ass of anyone at the mention of his experience. In other word on the surface, he was his old self again

5. Do you regret having used the Ouija Board?

I don't regret my experience. I'm happy to have lived it and happy to share it with others. You might want to ask Smitty if it's worth going deep on the Ouija tho...
