I had no plan to write a page on Ouija board dangers. However, when I mention to people that I am interested in ghosts, phantoms, spectres and the like, I am often asked, 'Do you use a Ouija board?". When I ask why they think that I might do so, I discover that it is as a result of them watching a particular, 'ghost hunting' series on television.
In my opinion, ghost hunting has absolutely nothing to do with séances, 'table tipping', automatic writing or particularly with the Ouija boards. All such methods of communication are dangerous, but particularly so is the Ouija Board. You will not be contacting the 'ghost' but something else entirely different.
But don't just take my word for it. As you might expect you can easily find a Christian warning on Ouija board dangers but eminent psychologists, doctors and even Spiritualists all agree that Ouija boards are dangerous to participants.
However, it seems to be a common misapprehension that one actually has to be using the board to be adversely affected by one. I can tell you, from my own experience that this is just not true.
I was really into board games as a child. monopoly, life, if it was a game I wanted it. One day while out, I saw a Ouija board for the first time so I ask for it and my mom bought it. It provided many hours of fun but as time went on, I found myself being scared of it for unknown reasons. I kept all my game in the same place but the Ouija was the only one I could see as I walked by that spot.
Years pass and children leave home. They they get the call form home to come by because spring cleaning in being done, toys have been uncovered and they seek your approval but the trash man gets them the next day. My Ouija was one of the things in question. I helped with the cleaning, stayed for dinner, and even stayed the night. Mom ask me to carry the trash to the curb for her the next morning to save her tine before work. I did so and forgot the bag the Ouija so I just set it on top of the trash for pick up. Good thing as the trash was early and all was removed. I owned just the one Ouija in my entire life.
Years pass once more and I get a call from home that some toys had been missed is years past and I'f I've no desire for them, once again the trash man to the rescue. I showed and you guessed it. In the very same room, in the very same place, that Ouija board had came home! She remembered I'll tossed one out already. After we both confirmed that only one was ever bought or purchased, high strangeness was aloft. I called a friend for advice. He told me to break the board into pieces and it would break the hold. It was his theory that each board comes with a spirit that binds itself to the board's owner. I done as I was told and demanded I be allowed to care for the trash the next day.
Trash day came the next day and the board was thrown into the truck and hauled away. It never made it back on the second time around. I still get that same feeling even if I see a board on TV and countless of others have shared their grim stories on the subject as well.
So, if you are 'ghost hunting', and think it would a good idea to try and make contact by mechanical means then please bear in mind the warnings of so many knowlegeable people who normally totally disagree with one another. On the subject of Ouija board dangers, you will find many of them in total agreement.
