The Ouija Board : Communication with the Dead!

Have you ever used a Ouija board? Do you believe in the occult?

Many people have tried it out when they were kids. In my case, it was at slumber parties. I remember thinking that it might be real, but is it really?  Ouija boards were created in the mid 1800's when spiritualism and channeling the dead were a trend.  This parlor game later gained its highest popularity between 1920-1960.  "Ouija" was a combination of the word "yes" in French and German. The board is typically wooden or wood looking and it contains letters, numbers, "yes", "no" and "good bye".  The players put their fingers on a planchette which is a movable indicator.  In seance fashion, you ask the Ouija board a question and the spirit spells out a message.  In my case, the question usually involved a boy, but you can ask it a more serious question. 

So does the planchette really glide over the board under the direction of the dead?  Could it really be supernatural forces trying to communicate to us?  Or is it just the power of suggestion or nervous energy? We may never know.....
