ATS paranormal experiments ahoy!

Ahh that experiment sounds fun! This would be very very interesting to do. That's a great idea. I'm willing to do it we just need to set up who will be the 3rd party and who else has a Ouija board.

Mischief, the point about accurate information that you really need to remember is that lower energies, or demons, or whatever else decides to show up also have access to this stuff and will use it to convince you that they are ok to talk to. They *will* lie to you. Protection needs to be studied and practised, and isn't just a case of picking up a few little hints and tips as you take the board out of it's box.

This is not a game, and although almost certainly not fatal, is has a high chance of messing up your life in ways that you cannot understand. You are a complete novice to this, and that fact that you clearly don't have any protection will make you an even bigger and more attractive target. Protection, challenging and dismissing of entities must be studied and practised first, and if you don't know how, then don't play with the board.

As one last futile attempt to increase your chances of perhaps escaping with the least amount of damage....absolutely do not smoke or drink before your session. I'm not being some paranoid old lady here....I have studied this. U2U me if you have any other questions.

Have you a video camera?...that would be interesting. Or even some pictures. I would not condone what you are doing but I felt the same way as you...so good luck to you and let us know how it goes?!

yes i do have a video camera. I was thinking of filming it and taking pictures. I will see if i can get the video camera and have someone film it. Do you think filming will prevent anything interesting from happening?

Using A Ouija Board Tonight Any good advice you can share with me?

Yes. DO NOT DO IT. That's the best advice. It is playing with fire. It opens doors that you can't close. It's not good. Seriously. Don't do it. People do quija boards and 'bloody mary' in the mirror, thinking it's interesting or fun, but then all hell breaks loose.

And I do mean 'all hell'.

It would be wonderful to be able to talk to my grandparents who have passed away.

Even if something shows up claiming to be grandpa it probably isn't him. It could be, but you have a much higher chance of getting a liar evil spirit who will get you to invite him into your life somehow.

DO NOT DO IT.

Well .. since you are so determined to do this even after being warned .. at least come back on when you are done .. and come back on in a few days .. and let us know if you survived intact.

The rest of us will say protection prayers for you.
I really hope you don't start something that you can't finish ..

Thank you very much. I definitely will come back on ats as soon as im done and let you all know what happened and what kinds of questions we asked etc.

Oh, boy, here we go again.

Don't let the people on ATS scare you away from playing with an Ouija. Nothing bad will happen. Worst case scenario your imagination might take over for a while and you may catch yourself looking over your shoulder once or twice when its dark. You will not conjure anything but your imagination.

Go lookup a fun word called ideomotor.

If you feel up to it, video tape the entire session on night vision, it will provide some fun if you were to post it up. Be sure to ask "When will I die?" Thats always a special question the Ouija loves to answer.

Care and luck,

So Since you seem to be very knowledgeable about all of this. are there any kind of prayers,chants etc i can say or do in order to help me to have a successful experience with what i'm doing tonight?

Um.....no. Nothing I can put on a public forum anyway. The only way you can possiblly be safe is not to do it. This stuff takes years to learn, and I'm not going to spill it all here for you to dismiss anyway. You just don't get it. This is never going to be successful.

How about this....if something turns up that you really don't like, which is quite likely, how are you going to avoid it or get rid of it? How will you tell if it's telling you the truth? How will you tell if it's letting you hear everything it's saying? How will you tell that it has gone completely and not latched onto you, almost unmissable? How will you know that it isn't still in the room with you when you go to sleep? Do you absolutely trust everything people tell you? I doubt it. Why trust what an unseen entity is saying to you?

If one of these beings turns up and says it's your grandma, with all the correct answers, which it will have, how will you know if it's her? I would love to see my grandmas again, and have done, very infrequently, and it's nothing like what will appear via a Oujia board. What we wish to happen is very much what it will play on.

Get yourself a nice leather bota bag and a pentagram ring.
You might need them.
