The Quigee board....stay away unless you can live with this dangerous game...bad things can happen...when I was a kid, the game didnt work...I put it away on top of a cabinet and it mysteriously dissapeared. No one knew where it went...my parents still swear they didnt touch it! Watch out it's dangerous to summon spirits. You never know if they will be evil or good! It could ruin your life!!!

Ouija Board

It's Ouija, which is commonly mispronounced as wee-gee. It's wee-jah. The term "Ouija" is derived from the French "oui" (for "yes") and the German/Dutch "ja" (also for "yes"). An alternative story suggests the name was revealed to inventor Charles Kennard during a Ouija séance and was claimed to be an Ancient Egyptian word meaning "good luck," although this is known to be incorrect. It has also been suggested the word was inspired by the name of the Moroccan city Oujda.
I know a lot of people who are scared of it, but does anyone really think that Parker Brothers Co. has a direct line to the spirit world with a piece of particle board with letters on it??

Talking - Ouija - boards are a form of channeling. Like all other forms of channeling - until you understand how to freely communicate with spirit - you must develop some basic skills.

The Ouija Board has been around since the time of the Roman Emperor Valens in the fourth century. It is also thought to have been used by the Greeks since before the time of Christ. It is a form of divination.
The modern Ouija Board began as a combination of two tools used for scrying. The first was a wheel made up of the letters of the alphabet. The second was a glass, usually a wine glass which is inverted and placed in the middle.
The letters are usually written on small pieces of paper which are placed in a circle around the table.
It was in 1891 that a patent was granted to Elijah J Bond on the first modern Ouija Board. The following year the rights were purchased by William Fuld. In 1966 the Parker Brothers purchased the rights to the Ouija Board and shifted its manufacturing facilities to Salem, Massachusetts. The Ouija Board ended up outselling the game of Monopoly in its first full year at Salem. Over two million copies of the Ouija Board were shipped.
The layout of the Ouija Board seems to vary from country to country and production companies - as other developed an looked to improve their boards to brining clear - more detailed - messages.
The original and best layout appears to be to place the Yes at the top of the circle and the No at the bottom.
On the basic board - the letters are placed in a circle starting with the letter A next to the word yes and continuing around until the final letter Z ends up on the other side of the word yes. The nine numbers from one to nine should be placed at the bottom next to the no.
Many people feel that Ouija Boards are dangerous to use. It depends on who uses them and the entities they attract. Dysfunctional people will attract dysfunctional entities and should never use a ouija board or channel in any way.

Ouija is a trademark name belonging to Parker Bros.
The boards used in spirit contact that are not made by Parker are usually called talking boards or spirit boards.

Ouija is the most popular but there are others available. there is one called a spirit board that is round rather than square. there is another that is shaped like a Ouija board but uses a pendulum rather than a pointer and then there are all types of tarot cards. there are also runes used by the Norse also available along with some sort of dice but am not familiar with these.

It is an ouija board. the idea is that the glass (which everyone in the group doing the session has a finger on) moves to different letters of the alphabet or numbers to spell out messages. They can bring up bad spirits though, so DON'T MESS ABOUT WITH ONE!!!
There is even a song called Ouija Board by Morrissey and Sheryl Crow also makes reference to one in a song (can't remember the name even though I like the song and singer!)

Ouiji Board or Spirit Board..put a white light of protection around yourself and anyone else that uses it with you and afterwards thank the spirits and release them..(ask them to leave) so they do not hang around after you have finished contacting them
