(intro)

As most of you probably already know The Ouija board known as a spirit board or talking board, is a flat board marked with the letters of the alphabet, the numbers 0–9, the words "yes", "no", "hello" and "goodbye", along with various symbols and graphics. It uses a small heart-shaped piece of wood or plastic called a planchette. Participants place their fingers on the planchette, and it is moved about the board to spell out words

Spirit Talking boards have been popularize since they where first thought to be founded in China in 1,100 AD Where mention can be found of them in historical document of the song Dynasty.

Then Later As a part of the spiritualist movement, mediums began to employ various means for communication with the dead. Following the American Civil War in the United States, mediums did significant business in presumably allowing survivors to contact lost relatives. The Ouija itself would be created and named in Baltimore, Maryland, in 1890, but the use of talking boards was so common by 1886 that news reported the phenomenon taking over the spiritualists' camps in Ohio

 "Ouija" was formerly a trademark belonging to Parker Brothers, and has subsequently become a trademark of Hasbro, Inc. in the United States,[1][2] but is often used generically to refer to any talking board. According to Hasbro, players take turns asking questions and then "wait to see what the planchette spells out" for them. It is recommended for players over the age of 8

Because thats a reasonable age to make contact with the dead . . . Yep sure is

Since early in the Ouija board's history, it has been criticized by several Christian denominations. As a way to fraternize with the devil an other demonic spirits.

What does science say?

The Ouija phenomenon is considered by the scientific community to be the result of the ideomotor response

deomotor phenomenon is a psychological phenomenon wherein a subject makes motions unconsciously.

Various studies have been produced, recreating the effects of the Ouija board in a lab and showing that, under laboratory conditions, the subjects were moving the planchette involuntarily. A 2012 study found that when answering yes or no questions, Ouija use was significantly more accurate than guesswork, suggesting that it might draw on the unconscious mind

Ouija boards were already criticized by scholars early on, being described in a 1927 journal as "'vestigial remains' of primitive belief-systems" and a con to part fools from their money. Another 1921 journal described reports of Ouija board findings as 'half truths' and suggested that their inclusion in national newspapers at the time lowered the national discourse overall.

In the 1970s Ouija board users were also described as "cult members" by sociologists, though this was severely scrutinized in the field

.Ether way the Ouija board has become a huge part of Horror and haunting an all those fans of the peculiar an paranormal flock to it. Believers of course believe spirits use energy to move the partchett to send messages to the other side but what do you think about this Peculiar Occurrence let me know in the comments below.
