Do you think ouija boards are evil or can only summon evil spirits?

Ever since I can remember, I've wanted a Ouija board. My mom won't let me get one because, apparently, she had a bad experience when she was younger. She'll swear up and down that they're evil and shouldn't be messed with.

My best friend however, says that Ouija boards are ok. She says they're just being confused with evil "witch boards." I've done a bit of research, but it hasn't turned up much.

I don't have any reason to not believe my mom. She's never really lied to me before, but I'm curious.... what does everyone here think. Are Ouija boards evil?

Yes. If you use them, you're asking for a visit from the devil! 69
No. Just a game. 69
I don't know 38

    The board itself is not "evil." Although, it is basically an open doorway for any bad entities.

    Never use a ouija board. It's like leaving your door open to an unknown stranger, one that can be hostile.

    Its a mass-produced board game. Someone has to move there hands for it to work, if someone swears they didn't there a lier. I think its hilarious that people actually believe there evil and the devil will get you! haha, grow up, its just a game.

    There was a point they were owned by parker brothers.

    This suggests one of two things.

    A) It's for entertainment purposes only.
    B) Parker Brothers are the bastard emissaries of satan and are antichrists.

    BEAR IN MIND: Monopoly.

    God damn, so many delusional people in here. Its just like monopoly or risk or any other board game. Its just marketed towards superstitious people.

    Ouija boards are not evil, if you know what you are doing. Never use one alone either, it is a open portal where the spirits and or demons use you. They can lead to bad things if you misuse one. you always need to establish a circle of protection before ever using one. We use them often but never without our Mentor.

    Yes they are evil, they're a witch board, just with a different name.

    I played when I was really young with my baby sitter. I had no idea what it was at the time, but nothing bad happened to me, but it did freak out my cousin who was the same age.

    I've heard some pretty bad stories, but from my own experience I just think its just a game.

    I'd be curious to know how people actually feel about this board too. Not a bunch of opinion from people who have never even seen one, but from those who've actually played with it and did or didn't have an experience with it. Whenever someone mentions a Ouija board all I see is a bunch of people talking extremes without actually knowing...just my opinion. Most I've ever seen of a Ouija board is in a store still in it's plastic...so yea.

    I heard too many stories myself. On the off chance it does work I would not risk trying it.

    WHAT THE HELL IS A OUIJA BOARD?!

    I feel like the physical, material 'Ouija' board itself, manufactured by Parker Brothers, is harmless.It only becomes destructive when you willingly attempt to make contact with other entities.

    Why don't you just get a pencil and a piece of paper and ask any evil spirit to write something using your hand...same concept...

    I think it may be linked to the occult. if youve ever seen the story about the serial killer in NY called, "son of sam" (AKA david berkowitz), he explained about how allowing them in, he was taken over by some demon. the ouija board is a way that you are surrendering yourself to any stray spirit that is picked up. not entirely the same thing but nonetheless it could be a foolish thing to do.

    i wouldnt use one anyway but i dont think that they summon evil spirits or any of that crap

    Never never play around with that thing, thats your one door way to hell. Don't never use it to summon a dead loved one, because that wouldn't be that person you are trying to reach, it's the evil spirits making you to believe they are that person. If you even have a Ouija board now... throw that shit out your house, burn it if you have to.

    It can be a pandora's box. When you give permission for them to enter in your body, they can, it's as simple as that. Using the ouija board you can naively do that. It's a possibility.. so listen to your mom.

    If it summons "evil spirits" that's probably just the darker parts of your subconscious mind, the evil is within.

  • As i dont belive in ghosts, i dont believe that a ouija board contains evil ones. I have played with one, it was fun!

  • Everyone who used them has had some kind of paranormal experience, some really extreme, i would advise you not to use one for your own benefit and safety.

    Never use Ouija board. Because you attract negative energies from the "other side". I know someone (already dead) because of ouija board. My mom and her cousins played ouija board since back then. The demon who communicated with him left him dead but my mom and her cousins are not ok they always hunt down by that demon. After a decades, no sign of demon now. No wonder i got my extraordinary skill from that.
