Im having some troubles, i had a session with my ouija board and i have footage of orbs flying in the air.
I think im being haunted, all i can hear is things saying i should kill myself!
Im in need of help, I cant get rid of the board, all i hear is f*ck off when i pick it up and laughing.
Does anyone know a solution without throwing the board away!?
I think im going f*cking mad here and i cant help it.
HELP
here is an article on Oiuja boards,below my post,you should read it.I don't know if any of it is helpful -but I agree that a belief in or fear of evil or powerful manifestation,being possible, goes a long way towards making it happen. I also believe that the user can influence manifestation of their own inner fears /negative thought forms [fear demons,in a classical sense] whether that is actually a spirit or evil being,I can't verify,as I am not there with you.Did you protect your space or perform shields,take precautions? Do you have any negative or strong emotions going on right now? Are you troubled or depressed etc? This can have a bearing on what you do and how you are affected by what you do. I am of a mind to tell you to perform a protection ritual or shielding on yourself, then go in there and 'kick some spirit butt' Turn the board over [Bombalina suggested this in her post on the other topic] tell any voices to f**k right off,you are the master and not suicidal at all - so beat it, "return whence you came and bother me no more" be firm about that and place something on it, a crystal or a stone or anything suitable you have[stones are good for cleansing/purifying ,again Bombalina said this already] Cleanse and purify the room too. Opening windows is surprisingly good for this -and easy too.lol. You need to be confident about it,even if you don't really feel it. After this read up on ouija and techniques etc.before you attempt it again.There is good reason why many of us do not advise it's use,for inexperienced practitioners, it is though an ancient tool.Romans used a form of it and Religio Romana practitioners will sometimes use it,depending on the individual practitioner[ I think it's priests and priestesses,initiates of experience] -but they tend to keep it simple and direct -spirits and ancestors are very important in this faith. I wish Exilus was here right now -he knows about this and I 'm sure he could advise,better than me.

Whether or not it is advisable to purchase or fashion a version of the Ouija Board in order to try it is a matter of great debate. The Ouija Board has its history firmly rooted among the popularisation of spirit communications and conversations with the dead. As a result, it could hardly fail to become shrouded in mystery and superstition. Some of the more popular myths and superstitions surrounding the board include:
1). Never play the board alone.
2). Should the planchette move to the four corners of the board then an evil spirit has been invoked.
3). Should the planchette fall from the board a spirit will get loose.
4). A Ouija Board will scream on attempts to burn it, and if it is heard the unfortunate listener will have a mere thirty six hours to live.
5). Never ask about the following: potential death dates (when might I die?), God or buried gold and treasure.
These are to name only a few. However even though the board has quite a formidable reputation as a tool to be avoided, it would appear that two distinct camps have arisen over the years. There are those who vehemently oppose and warn against the use of the Ouija Board and those that are arch sceptics. The latter or more sceptical tend to cite a variety of wholly interesting but very down to earth phenomena to explain away the seemingly inexplicable movements of the planchette. The former and more superstitious camp tend to use words like, demon, possession, evil spirits etc. Some even go as far as to quote passages from the bible. Regardless of opinion, passions about this subject tend to run exceptionally high.
During the 1930's an American researcher called J B Rhine took the whole area of psychical research into the laboratory. On doing this he managed to ascertain the existence of psychic ability, but this served only to widen the growing split between Spiritualism and the scientific study of psychic phenomena. This meant that for the sceptics the spirits were beginning to lose their grip. Demons, evil spirits and communication from beyond the grave, were now being replaced by terms like Ideomotor Effect or action, automatism theory, autosuggestion, facilitated communication, self delusion, telekinesis and telepathy.
The ideomotor action was a phrase coined by William Carpenter in 1882 and it was an umbrella term for a variety of 'involuntary or unconscious motor behaviour' which he used to explain away a wide variety of paranormal phenomena. This included the seemingly involuntary movements of dowsing rods, pendulums, pointers on ouija boards and tilting tables. Carpenter believed that muscular movement could in fact be initiated by the mind, independently of 'volition or emotions'. In other words a person may in fact be moving something, but even though it is them doing it, they are not actually consciously aware of the fact, thus giving rise to a feeling of paranormality. Automatism theory, autosuggestion, facilitated communication and self delusion are all variations of this theme, i.e. the individual is responsible for board movements, but for whatever reason is not aware of the fact. Telepathy and telekinesis have also been cited as possible candidates to help explain the ouija board, but conclusive proof of their existence also remains debatable.
Despite the apparently mundane psychological explanations for the workings of the ouija board, a recent poll conducted by the www.about.paranormal.com website revealed some interesting results. It was shown that sixty five percent of respondents still believed that the ouija board was a dangerous tool. Only forty one percent believed that the board was controlled by the users' subconscious, a staggering thirty seven percent believed that it was controlled by spirits and fourteen percent 'feared that it was under the influence of demonic spirits.' It is certainly hard to take a wholly sceptical approach when so many stories abound of previously unknown or unheard of information being revealed to users, that is verified at a later date. It is at this point that the ideomotor response falls somewhat short and once again the ouija board moves from the hands of the sceptics back into the realms of the unknown; and for many into the to the darker side of the paranormal.
One person who takes the warning of others about the dangers of the Ouija Board very seriously is Dr Jimmy Lowery. He has even gone as far as to publish a copyright free article proclaiming the dangers of opening up what he perceives as 'the playground of Satan'. In his article he provides biblical quotes from the New International Version. Some of the examples given include:
"Leviticus 19:31 Do not turn to mediums or seek out spirits, for you will be defiled by them. I am the Lord your God"
"Leviticus 20:6 I will set my face against the person who turns to mediums and spirits to prostitute himself by following them, and I will cut him off from his people."
"Samuel 15:23 For rebellion is like the sin of divination, and arrogance like the evil of idolatry."
Despite all of the warnings either biblical or superstitious there remains advocates of the Ouija Board. The author Keith Morgan argues in his book titled "How to Use a Ouija Board", that the Ouija Board:
"like the use of the Tarot for a method of divination that has been used for millennia, has been seen by many people to be a gateway to danger, this is an inaccurate superstition."
He goes on to suggest that the much maligned Ouija Board:
"Does not bring bad luck or harm, it is just an object with letters and numbers printed upon it, it is just an object with no power of its own, its use and any effect that occurs comes directly from you and our use of it, no spirits flow into the board, or the glass. No bogeyman sits on your shoulder to deceive you as regards any answers you get."
Morgan's account of the board is interesting in so far that his theory about the how the board works is a combination of both the ideomotor effect and a communication between the spirit world. Instead of the board's movements coming from the subconscious of the sitter he suggests that:
"The board acts as an indicator for your subconscious linking your physical body in with the world of spirit."
Using the board is a relatively simple affair, although its use is certainly not recommended if you are of a superstitious or nervous disposition. In order to use the board it is recommended that you find someone who is willing to sit with you, usually at night. A quiet candlelit, atmospheric room can be conducive to a session. It is also thought useful to remove any distractions such as clicks, watches, radios, televisions etc. Arrange all of the persons present around a table within easy reach of the board or glass. Everyone should place their fingers lightly on the pointer or glass. One person who was previously selected to act as the medium for the session should then issue a simple question requiring only a yes or no answer. A frequently used question popularised by the movies is: "Is there anybody there?" It may be necessary to repeat the question a number of times before receiving any response. However once the glass or pointer moves ensure that someone is present to take notes. Should any vulgar, rude or obscene comments arise simply end the session by closing the board. It is not advisable to ask silly questions such as "When will I die?" if an answer of three months is indicated then this is highly likely to be false and cause a great deal of unnecessary anxiety. When the session is drawing to a close, slide the planchette to goodbye and remove all hands from the apparatus. Some literature advocates the use of elaborate cleansing rituals, both before and after a session, although this will have very little bearing upon whether or not the board actually works. These rituals are possibly more useful as reassurance to nervous sitters and those that are susceptible to greater levels of superstition. However it is still prudent to add a cautionary note. Quotations from the online Sceptic Dictionary, by a sceptical Robert T Carroll, point out that:
"Suzy Smith in 'Confessions of a Psychic' in 1971 claims that using a Ouija Board caused her to become mentally disturbed. In 'Thirty Years Among the Dead' (1924), American psychiatrist Dr Carl Wickland claims that using the Ouija Board 'resulted in such wild insanity that commitment to asylums was necessitated."
Indeed ghost researcher Dale Kaczmarek of the Ghost Research Society in his article 'Ouija, Not a Game' cites Rev Morris Cerullo, president of World Evangelism and author. 'The Black Side of Satan', Illinois, 1973:
"Many people have related to me weird tales of answers given by the Ouija Board. This and other occult games may seem intriguing but the implications are serious and not to be tampered with, it can lead to dangerous waters indeed".
The latest serious study of the Ouija, as an attempt to help solve some of the mystery surrounding the board, was documented in the Daily Mail, Friday 15th Aug 2003, and written by the medical correspondent Jenny Hope. The report found that suggestible men and women were much more likely to believe paranormal events had occurred even when they had not. The article stated that:
"Researchers found that one in three of those taking part in fake séances claimed to have seen a table levitate - even when it remained still. Around one in five believed they were witnessing paranormal phenomena when they saw candlesticks moved by trickery and balls lifted up into the air using hidden pales. The experiments by Dr Richard Wiseman, a leading investigator of the paranormal - confirmed that suggestible men and women were more likely to be fooled.
He found that believers in the paranormal had a greater tendency to report strange happenings than sceptics, who assumed they were being hoaxed. 'Suggestible people remained convinced even after they were told it was a fake séance,' he added. Dr Wiseman went on to say of his experiments, 'It shows eyewitness accounts are unreliable and we need better evidence."
As a final note about this enigmatic subject; the Ouija Board, whether it be deemed apparatus to communicate with the dead or simply something to help demonstrate harmless psychological behaviour, it is probably best avoided.

I so happy and grateful that everything is fine now. I didnt see this post until just now, and when i did i felt as if i was partly responisble, for telling you that ouija boards work for me. I dont suggest you use it again unless you learn more about it. I tried to warn you that the boards are powerful, and you need to take precautions. Dont underestimate the power of a protection spell. And never abuse the board. opening a portal to talk to whatever spirits come along is not only dangerous, but foolish. I thought you wanted to speak to your great grandmother? No one else whould have been able to come through if you had done proper spells. Please, dont do this again. Thats a very frightening senario, and i wouldnt want anyhting to happen to you, when it could so easily be prevented by just not using the board. If you want to speak to your great grandmother still, there are other things you could do. You could wirte her a lette,r or just talk to her. Spirits can hear and see us. She may not be able to answer diresctly, but she could give you a sign that she heard and understands. Some people believe sprits can direct messages through scrying or meditation. Why dont you try these instead? Still cast spells of protection, but its much safer than using something as dangerous as the board.
"Im fine now, I prayed to the unholy father Satan. Once i did this it was all banished away. Power of prayer is great and for that i praise him more"
ROFL...when in doubt go with what you know.
"I didnt see this post until just now, and when i did i felt as if i was partly responisble, for telling you that ouija boards work for me."
why do you feel responsible, there were enough warnings floating around for him to give him a fair play of both sides. he knew what he was getting into. but it was a learning experience none the less...worse things couldve happened
