i play with that and i Remember i cant move like somting Choked me .
i dont play with this anymore its was Before 3 years ago

My friends and I played with one that my mom bought me in the late 70s.

One day in the summer of 78 my friend Kevin asked the Ouija board if it knew which of us would die first.

The Ouija board told him that he would die before the end of the year. It told him this in a serious of question/answers over the course of about 10-15 minutes. But that was the answer Kevin got. And we laughed it off. Of course, we also had seen some things come true - but that was just coincidence, right?

Wrong. Kevin died in a horrible car accident on Dec 31, 1978 at about 6 p.m. It was a Sunday and he and his siblings were coming home from a skiing trip in Ruidoso when an old lady pulled out in front of them. His sister was also killed and his older brother spent months in the hospital in traction. The old lady, her daughter and infant grand-daughter were also killed. 5 people killed. It was a very bad crash.

The FIRST thing I did after getting the news about an hour after the crash was I took that Ouija board and broke it in half and threw it away. Every year I drink a toast to my good friend Kevin on New Years Eve.

And I NEVER messed with the occult again.

That's terrible. I am so sorry for the loss of your friend. I truly believe that nothing good comes of the Ouija board.

IDk...Im not sure it has anything to do with the person using it...it really just depends on who or what you happen to get communicating with you. its 50/50.


I remember when we did it, eventually we got to the point where we were communicating with one entity, every time we would use it, but in the beginning, we got a few different entities, some would barely talk to us, some talked a mile a minute, the 2 girls said they could get 'vibes' from the entities, telling them if it was good or bad, every entity was a little different.


I would call the Ouija board a 'radio of sorts' rather than a toy.

You should NEVER ask questions about anything which you cannot handle the answer you get. Basically, it is the askers responsibility to want to know the answer - even if it is not what you want to hear. Questions you cannot handle the answer to, you shouldn't ask. This is because once the words are spoken, you cannot take them back, they are out there and have been heard.

This is an example of just one such question.

I cannot remember many of the things we asked it, Im sure we probably asked it about our deaths, but Im kind of glad I dont remember that!


There was one time in the beginning,when we were all still in the stage of not believing it fully, we asked it to prove itself in some way...it gave us very specific directions on a spot in our city, to go there and start digging into the ground. This was a sort of industrial area, a brick company had a large outdoor storage area for pallets of bricks, it was about 3 acres, we called it the brickyard and would go hang out there, drink, kids would make out in there, younger kids would play hide and seek and climb on the bricks, after the place closed every day, the brickyard was totally empty and no one would run us off.


Anyway, it told us to dig down until we found this weird looking piece of metal, (it was actually just an old farm implement, but it had been buried for decades, it was in the process of corroding/rotting), so, this was another time it proved itself to us. That was really creepy, it basically knew exactly where we were at, (because the directions started from the house we happened to be at).


Crazy stuff!

Never in my life, even as a child/teen have I ever been curious to play w/ one. No one's ever given me one as a gift (& I don't see why in the world anyone would do that). I've never even touched one. I never had many friends & thank God none of them whipped one of these out & wanted to play w/ one. I'd be leaving outta there if they did! I was brought up in church since a toddler so I just never was interested in that kind of thing. Even when I was a child in the 80s & saw it in the toy stores, it's like I knew that that's not something to mess w/. Don't know how I knew. My parents never talked about it.

I never for the life of me knew why toy stores sell these things or why they're in the toy aisle/section. They're (the stores, the manufactuerers of these boards, etc.) giving people a false sense of security.

The board had absolutely nothing to do with that person's death.

Yep, its like blaming cell phones if someone gets into a car accident...the cell phone/Ouija board is just a 'tool' by itself. Its not good or evil, its an inanimate object.

You want us to believer a ouija board told you all this?
Impossible.
Bear in mind, a ouija board is communicating letter by letter, and if all you state here is true, you would still be on that board spelling out the instruction it supposedly gave you.

He said that it doesn't happen by accident, that the person has to be participating in an activity that invites the unclean spirit in. He noted ouija being one of the ways,especially because demons have the ability to lie & show themselves by pretending to be a loved one or whatever you're attempting to contact. It opens a door that most don't know how to shut.
My family had bought a Ouija board sometime in the late '60s or early '70s.


I remember my older siblings playing with/using it when I was very young, in the early to mid-'70s.


I'm telling you (and I tend to live in reality, not one to easily fall for BS), that house always had a spirit roaming. My mom would tell me it was my deceased grandmother checking on me.


There were never any injuries or deaths, but I (we all could) could always feel something there in that house with us. I had trouble sleeping and was scared out of my wits half the time.


It makes sense now that playing with that board probably opened a door from the spirit world.
