That's quite a commentary in itself--the ouija board wasn't invented as a toy, but Hasbro/Parker Brothers made it into one!

Let's face it; the only way we will really know whether the Ouija board is controlled by spirits or not, is to ask the Magc 8 Ball.

OMG! The last time I played with a Ouija board I was 16 and I got scared so bad when the planchette flew across the room--niether of us had a hand on it!--that I literally peed my pants and ran home. And I was raised Jewish and was very skeptical about the Ouija going into the game, we were just doing it as a goof.
But, no, Oye Vay: I owuld never go near one of those things again. The negative forces in the spirit world that envelops our physical world need a sort of tunnnel or portal in order to enter our lives, and I think the Board--along with the wilingness of the participants--provides them such an entry opportunity.

Only half-sarcastic, and only half Harry Potter. That Tolkien fellow must bear some of the blame as well, after all.
