Can we really speak to the dead with the help of the Ouija Board. Is there anyone who has actually done it and seen it work? Is it dangerous to play this game with 2 people? Will it work? Whats the scientific explanation for this, if there is any? I am going to try this with my wife soon. Any suggestions?

It works on the ideo-motor effect in which the players unconsciously push the planchette in the direction their unconscious minds want to go. There is nothing supernatural or demonic about the Ouija board. Have fun with the ideo-motor effect.

It is a toy intended to amuse teenagers.
It has no magical powers, spirits do not exist, and it is safe to play with unless a person is suffering from mental disorders that cause him to believe "evil spirits" are lurking in the shadows, waiting for him to pick up toys (Ouija board, tarot cards, runes, etc.) just so he can (do whatever).

I actually don't believe that Ouija boards work in the way that people think they do. I don't think that there are spirits manipulating the answers. If anything, it's people manipulating the game.

Yes, it's very real. I saw one in the toy store yesterday. So I can confirm that it is real. Now ghosts/spirits/gods, they are not real. Ouija boards are for entertainment only.

I messed around with one the other day with some friends. It could be real, it could be fake, I don't know. We were either unconsciously moving the pointer or the spirits are very confused. Either way, I see no harm in it. It's just for fun.

I think it is real, but that spirits control the board; not the dead. I won't have anything to do with it.

Dead are DEAD.. you can never talk to them in future.
