I was having a discussion with my friend about the authenticity of Ouija board claims. He seems to insist that ghost or other supernatural forces are involved with the game. Personally i've never played, but I think it's a bunch of crock. What are your experiences with the game?
Do any of you have any experience with Ouija Boards?

Blindfold him, flip the board around 180 degrees without him knowing, and video tape the subsequent jibberish that comes about.

Looks like we have a whole lot of folk who do not believe in the supernatural - or an evil part of that realm.
All I can say is I know of one family that used one to get rich, realized it was demonic influences that was helping them along, they destroyed the board - and their life went downhill - totally. It took them years to recover from the bankruptcy. Certain family members actually died, and the wife still has flashbacks.
Personally I would stay away. If you think it is a bunch of hooey - just stay away anyway. It's not worth your time - or your life.

That's just it, it's a story.
If something is sold at a friggin Toys-R-Us, it probably can't communicate with the dead.
(P.S. - I'm gonna let you guys in on a little secret. THEY'RE CALLED 'DEAD' FOR A REASON. And even if they're are such things as souls, I'm sure these spirits are going to waste their time talking to some douchebag on a $5 kids toy.)
i believe it.. here's my story:
in 8th grade, the entire 8th grade class went on a retreat to some campsite place.. it was pretty creepy when we went. dark woods... like a scene from some horror film.. anyway.. so all the boys split up into two cabins..
that night, in my cabin, no one wanted to sleep, so we pushed the bunks together and sat around in a circle.. we had a homemade ouija board, so i thought "yah right, how the hell is that supposed to work".. they were asking questions and "babe ruth" was answering all these questions that we asked.. blah blah blah.. i put my finger on it, but i just figured one of the other kids was moving it... we asked if he was really there, he said yes.. we asked him to prove it by turning off a flashlight... keep in mind, this is a flashlight with brand new batteries put in that morning.. it was really bright, and right when we asked "babe ruth" to turn off the light, the flashlight dimmed out till it was completely out.. the switch still in the on position... i've never played with it again.. it was pretty damn freaky...

I was always the first one to claim they were a bunch of BS but I really do not know after a personal experience. When I was in graduate school I bought a house and lived there by myself in a neighborhood of families. The family across the street kind of adopted me and my dog as one of the family and I spent a lot of time with them. Their 13 year old daughter would come over to my house when her parents were out and she got scared. One afternoon her and her friend were playing with an Ouiji board and they came over to my house because they were scared because they had been talking to seceral different spirits and one was acting rather strange. I just laughed and told them to go watch TV in the den if they wanted to wait until the parents came home. They wanted me to come over to their house and witness it since I didn't believe. Like people say, with mutliple people having hands on the gizmo who knows who is moving it or not. I figured the only way to get some truth out of this obvious deception the 13 year olds cooked up to mess with me I would ask a question where the board had to provide a specific answer, and one the girls had no way of knowing. They didn't even know I hve a brother in CA and I asked the board to provide my brother's middle name. It is not a commone name at all but the board hit the nail on the head with no mistaken letters or pauses. I got up and walked out. I won't mess with one of those things now even though I still tend to believe they are BS, but my experience is hard to explain.....an NO, there is no way the girls could have even found anything in my house with his name on it even if I let them rumage through the whole place.
