See my thread about what happened to Estefania Gutierrez Lazáro...and have agood think if its worth the risk.

ATS LINK

Its not a thing to play with.

Ah thank you for that link and for the advice.

And the information you provided in that link is certainly bizarre to say the least as well.

And i fully agree an ouija board is not something to take lightly and as you say "play with" it is something IMO which deserves maximum respect.

Yes but curiosity is getting the better of me.

I've offered my thoughts and experiences on this a few times. Having dabbled with Ouija Boards many years ago, I do believe there is some sort of power there. The questions is, does the Ouija Board actually provoke some ethereal entity or does simply stimulate your own mind?

Read about some of my experiences below -

That's better than having something sinister get the better of you.

Please do not do it. Heed the warnings of those who have. Interesting your thread came up at the same time the story of the girl from Spain did.

I think that's a coincidence worth noting.

This isn't really the thread for that to be honest....Try the ATS Issues Thread but there is nothing on your profile to suggest that you made a ouija board thread as well.

Well believe it or not i actually didn't even see that other thread so yes that is a bit of a Big coincidence. (if you believe in coincidences that is)

But i still would like to try it one day(ouija board) i mean i wouldn't like to think that fear has ever or will ever stop me from doing anything ever.

Here are some tips when using the board..

Placing a silver coin on the board is supposed to prevent spirits from coming through, but if you don't have a silver coin there are other things you can do to protect yourself.

Never use the board in a cemetery or any place where a murder or other unnatural death has occurred.

Never use it when you are sick, since evil spirits can take possession of anyone who is in a weakened condition.

Never play alone.

Don't let the planchette fall off the board.

If the planchette makes a figure eight several times, or goes to the four corners of the board, you have contacted an evil spirit and should turn the planchette upside down to use it.

I've used one many times with friends who believed in it.

And I have to say, it's a load of tripe.

Basically you have your finger on this pointer along with a few other people and the "forces that be" are supposed to move it, either channeling through you or whatever.

Well, it did move and I was positive I wasn't pushing or pulling, as were my mates. However I started asking questions and noticed it either went to what i expected or wanted to hear. So I asked a question in my head and sure enough it moved.

So i let go of the pointer and asked out loud a question which only I knew the answer to. It didnt get it right. And it was really sketchy.

So I turned around and said how many fingers am I hold up and it got it wrong continuously. Not *too* hard if a ghost is present.

Nothing ever came of it. It's merely a device that allows your unconscious to exert itself, fullfilling your ego's wishes. nothing more.

Nothing sinister, nasty, devlish or naughty about it. Use it for a laugh!

Yes i am fairly determined to try it myself because i'd much rather prefer to have my own opinion on something opposed to people telling me what it should be......

Although i am grateful for everyones input still.

And yes if enough stuff happens and i get some evidence to back up what i claim happened then i will post about it.
