Im talking about the calling of spirits. Me and about 6 of my friends improvised a little and made our own ouji board [taking the letters from a scrabble game and arranging them in a circle on a wooden table], with candles ofcoarse. We put a shot glass in the middle, upside down. Said a prayer at the beginning, and then put one of our fore-fingers on the glass. Then we began.


We called a spirit up, no specifics. After several minutes of nothing, we asked "spirit can you hear us?", and then suddenly the glass slowly moved toward 'yes'. This freaked us out a little, but me being a big sceptic, i immediately began to think of who could be pushing the glass [like out of my friends]...


Now this is what i dont get:

We all promised each other we would NOT push/pull the glass - a proper fully fledged promise. Yet the glass still moved. So we began asking questions about ourselves, very personal ones such as deaths of relatives and how they died - these had 'yes' or 'no' answers by the way.

I asked "did my grandmother on my dad's side die of bowel cancer?", to which the answer was yes, and which was answered correctly by the moving glass. Ok, that was strange. Furthermore my friends asked various questions, to which the glass also answered correctly.

Then i asked if my grandfather on my dad's side died in world war 2, to which the answer was no, but the glass moved to yes. This puzzled the fuck out of me. I mean, if the spirit was there, why did it just not move at all to indicate it didnt know? Why did it answer correctly to all my friends' personal questions and answer mine wrong? BTW - My grandfather is still alive and well, and i asked that as a test so im really suspicious now.

Now to the specifics:

After asking many questions we got this profile:

*Girl
*5 years of age [we asked randomly what age she was until we got the right answer]
*Died of an 'accidental' suicide
*Did not wish to be alive
*Her father was murdered
*From London, England
*Died recently
*And I think i remember us asking whether her father abused her, to which she answered yes... but i cant really remember.


Now this is what's weird:

1. We asked for a name, and the glass moved to completely random letters. When i mean random, i mean very random. This led us to believe that the spirit was an immigrant, or illiterate, or that the letters and how we arranged them were not done properly. So because the spirit said it was 5 years old, the whole illiterate and random letter thing made sense... But then, i cant remember why or how, one of us asked whether she was 12 years old, and it said yes. Then i asked if it liked to lie and play tricks and it said yes. ... So basically the spirit was pulling pranks on us.



It's just fucking puzzling me right now. I mean, why did it say yes to if my granddad died in WW2 when he's alive? Even my friend asked if their grandfather died in Perth to which the real answer was no but the spirit said yes. I dont get it!! Why did it get the right answers for all my other mates and not me? Could someone have been pushing it? I really don;t know... the profile thing freaked me out.. it gave me goosebumps.


Anyone else done this before?

Ouija boards work through either conscious or unconscious movements. Though none of you may have been actively trying to cheat, you were moving the glass yourself. It's called the ideomotor effect.

You can read about it here and here.
 
I have never done one, it would scare the hell out of me, if i ever did do one, i wouldn't do it in my house!!

That is weird, i would have been shit scared!

^^ really, any info?
He got a bunch of students together in an old manor and told them a story about a group of 12 people who killed themselves in a suicide pact. He did a bunch of tricks including getting them to all pick the same photograph, using a Ouija board to spell out the name on the photo they'd chosen and getting one of the students to be "possessed" by the girl they'd selected and give details about her life. He also got people at home to do automatic drawing.

He revealed to the group that it had been a hoax, brought out the girl - alive and well - and explained some of the techniques he used (including the ideomotor effect I mentioned earlier).

^You got a link to video?
It was an hour-long TV special, IIRC. I'll see if I can find video clips of any of it.

It's probably available on DVD now if you're really interested in it.

*EDIT*

There are some video clips from his TV show here, but nothing from the seance.
