Have you have played the game where you get a group of people together and you lift up someone using only your index fingers. Basically, someone lays on the ground and everyone (8 or 10 people) puts their index fingers under them. Then, everyone lifts together and are able to lift the person off the ground so easily because the weight is distributed across so many people.
The same idea applied to Ouija board. No one feels like they are pushing the pointer because they aren't pushing with enough force to move it on their own. But, the tiny amount of pressure from each person is enough when they are added together as a group.
So, unconsciously, someone moves the pointer, and everyone else pushes along with them, unconsciously, making it seem like it is moving 'on its own'.

YES!! and they do work. Don't ask me how, but they do. From my experience, to get a decent vibe it's best have a male and female. Sit two chairs directly across from each other and make sure your knees are touching. Sit the board on your laps. Make sure that your environment is quiet and free from distractions.
To verify the validity, ask questions about the person across from you that only they know the answers to such as their underwear color or their current weight. (try not to get too personal). The board will suprise you. U will feel the planchette move. Try to let your fingers glide with it and don't apply too much pressure. I think Parker Brother's still make them.

Yes, but you have to activate the board. For safety, I will not list it here.

No it's not real.
It's either someone is pulling it towards a wrong answer, or the devil is in the room. It's just a waste of time.
Only way to find out is to ask it. Doesn't work!

No sometimes spirits do take control of it but they are just messing with your minds so they have power. They bring evil spirits don't use them.
