Anyone have any good Oujia board stories?

I heard that if you use it at midnight on Halloween night you can actually use it to contact the dead. My friends and I are gonna try it this Halloween! Shocked

I was just saying on IMDB that I have a friend who is terrified of them.

I don't know how you can be scared of a piece of cardboard and a plastic/wooden triangle that was manufactured in a factory and sold by Parker Brothers. But hey, some people just let their superstitions control them I guess.

edit, also I think it's silly in general to be scared of black cats or walking under ladders, but that's just me.

i like moving it to the letter Z and not letting anyone else move it away.

"I'm telling you guys, Z is trying to tell us something!"

As far as I'm concerned, it's all in the players heads.

Those things were HUGE when I was growing up, that and "stiff as a board, light as a feather". Personally, I think it's in the player's heads, self-fulfilling experiences. You think it's fake, it's fake, you want it to be real, it's real. Same goes for fortune tellers, except for the fact that it still creeps me out.

It is fake. With a bunch of people lightly touching it, it makes it so that even the faintest push will cause it to move.

Or maybe it's like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=03aeY1FpdfQ

Tarot is a bit better, though. But only a bit.

I have experienced some f***** up s*** when using Ouija Boards. Candles being lifted into the air and flung across the room, doors opening for no reason, noises coming from places where no one was. It could have something to do with the level at which you believe in that sort of thing.

It wasn't ghosts.. you just were using telekinesis.

Me and my 4 friends tried it as a party. I didn't think it would move mysteriously. Turns out I was right.

I call BullS***.

next time you use a ouija board - do something useful, ask them how michael jackson is doing.

Ok, how many of you that believe in Oujia boards don't believe in God?

I'm curious.
