Hello, I am doing much research on the Ouija, as I definately have much reason to, after a sequence of true events + an actual haunting that took place many yrs. ago.
Anyway, I've read dozens of other's experiences w/the board--those who've had bizarre accounts,ect.
Some peoples hands went "cold and numb", other's said the felt a spirits "hands run down their arms and fingers" while they operating the planchette.
Two ppl [completely] DIFFERENT experiences, at night when they slept, another person "witnessed their right arm raised up" [like reaching for something]
Personally I don't recommend that one ever touches the Ouija board--as "anything" just about can happen regarding paranormal activity. Not always, however why bother w/a dangerous chance?
Anyway, back to ORIGINAL question--have you experienced something regarding your hands getting extra tingly, or cold, or raised arm, or whatever that you've never been able to tell anyone because it was just plain strange or almost

If anything can truely be a window to evil in this world it would be the OUIJA board.
I prefer to conduct my spiritual life with out the use of the OUIJA board because there are better and more controlable ways to do so.

Ah, now your previous question makes more sense.
I would imagine if someone truly believed there was a spirit moving the planchette they might be open to the suggestion that their body was somehow affected by this spiritual touching. It would lend more realism to the event, that's for sure. If someone thinks a spirit was making them move something and that as a result they were touched by a spirit, there are only so many ways this touch could manifest itself--pain, numbness, tingling, etc.
It's also possible that we have a causation issue here. If you sit at a table with your arms extended for a period of time, I imagine your circulation could be cut off somewhat. What happens when your circulation is cut off for a period of time? Tingling, numbness and coldness is what I usually experience.
The Ouija board is just a game that relies on the ideomotor effect to make you unconsciously move the planchette around. I used to play with it myself when I was younger. The board told us things only I knew, so I knew it was I who was moving the planchette, but I aver I was not doing so consciously.

If you're lifting your arm to put your fingers on the planchette for long periods of time, you arm can fall asleep and go numb. There's nothing paranormal about that, though. That's about the scariest real thing that can happen with a Ouija board.

Have you noticed that staying on the computer a long time will also do that??? You're holding your hands up to type..and also to use the mouse. You can get carpel tunnel from it...which I'm beginning to think I have...my arms go numb at night when I'm sleeping. (I notice it when I wake up). Wear a brace on your hands..it helps a little...but don't play with the ouija board.

I like Ouija questions.People are so afraid of these board games.Portals to hell,gateway for evil,escape hatch for demons.All for the price of $9.99 at KB Toys.It's hilarious it really is.To answer your question.Even playing with them as a child.I could figure out what was happening.Nothing ever really happened.It was fun scaring the kids who thought it was real.

Just last night on that 7 hour GHost Hunter Special the psychic mentioned that the spirits come from behind you , put their face next to yours and place their hands over yours, this might explain why you were feeling numb on your forearms and hands. I don't know personally, I steer clear from oiuja boards. Big time.

You are playing in a spiritual word. You need to get it out of your home. You are inviting demons into your home. The best thing you could do is burn it.

My trusted psyic, Sylvia Brown think the boards are something you do not want to fool with. I trust her, millions do! For your sake, please get it out of your house and home, bury it or burn it so no children can find it.

i have been around others while they were using one, but I wasn't dumb enough to engage in the session. I figure if your dumb enough to use one then you deserve what you get out of it.
