How To Play

There are lots of ways to play this game, but I will show you the most common and safe way to play Ouija.

The first thing you want to do is get ahold of an Ouija Board. You can get one from Amazon, Walmart, Target, or a store with toys and games in stock. You can also make one, but homemade Ouija Boards dont work that well. Lets get started.

The Ouija Board Format

Setup

When you set up Ouija, you need an Ouija Board, Planchette, Candles, and a Dark, Silent Room. Do not use a table. Your legs are knees touching, used as the table. That is when you have 2 people. When you have more than two people, you need to use a table. Here is an image to show you...

Starting the Session

Put the Ouija Board on your laps. Take 2-4 white candles and put them nearby so you can see the Ouija board. Take the Planchette and put it on the G or the T. Turn all the lights off and go in a room that is almost pitch black. Try somewhere not in your house. If the spirit somehow ecscapes from the board, then you want to be in a place that you will never go to again. That can be very dangerous. (See tips and tricks for more details). Once you are set up, you can start the session.

To start, you need the Planchette on G. Take your first 3 fingers each and place them on the Planchette carefully. Don't put too much pressure on the Planchette. If you do, this will not work. Start by intentionally going in a circle pattern around the whole board. Do this for a few minutes to get the board "warmed up". After a few minutes, slide the Planchette back onto G and now you are putting no pressure on at all. If you put ANY pressure on the Planchette, the Ouija board will not work. The spirit will not have enough strenth to move the Planchette. Unless the ghost is super strong, but those are very rare.

There needs to be one person to ask all the questions. That person will be the medium for the session. Just to let you know, a medium is a person who can talk to spirits. Let that person ask the first question. You should always ask, "Are you present?" After you ask that question, you should still not put ANY pressure on the Planchette. If you do, it will not work. Wait for about 15 minutes to let you feel a force or feeling that makes the Planchette move by itself. If you wait longer than that, you should say "goodbye" and move the Planchette intensionally to the word GOODBYE. Try again in 30 minutes if you want to try again.

Playing and Ending the Session

If, however the Planchette moves by itself while you are touching it, and you are 100% sure you or your partner are not intentionally moving it, then the Planchette should move to YES. It might move very slow, or it might move very fast. But if it has moved to YES, then you have succesfully asked a question on the Ouija Board.

Now ask a question about their name or gender. You need to get to know them. If they refuse to answer any of these questions, the that is a sign they are a bad spirit. Bad spirts are never good. Try asking it a few more questions, and if it doesn't answer, the end the session. If it answers all of your questions, then you have communicated with a good spirit. That is impressive. When you find a good spirit, keep asking questions for anoter 1-2 hours. If you feel tired at all, you should end the session.

To end a session, you should first ask if it wishes to end the session. Good or bad spirit. If it says yes, then say goodbye. If it moves to goodbye, then you are good to go. You are safe to go. If it says NO to ending the session, you should say, "I really have to go, goodbye." If it says goodbye, then you are good to go. If it refuses to say goodbye, and it is doing something else, or if it refuses to answer anything, say you really have to go and move the planchette intentionally to goodbye. wait a few more momments to see if the spirit is really gone. Some spirits can lie to you and say they are gone, but they're really not. You have entered the mind game phase. This is serious.

Dangers of ending the session

This stage, which I call the mind game, is extremely rare. The thing you want to do is say, "leave, I do not want to communicate anymore." Hold the Planchette so it stays on goodbye until they leave. Hours might pass, but do not let them control the board at all. If they can control the board, you are in danger. Only bad spirits will do this. Always assume it is a bad spirit if they refuse to leave. You might feel something touch you, grab you, or you might see something, but do not let ANYTHING let you take your hands off the Planchette.

If they still refuse to leave, you are in huge danger. You might have interacted with a poltergeist instead of a ghost. They are not the same thing. They are completely different. Most of the time, if the spirit refuses to leave, that means they can sense fear. If you are feared, then they might not want to go. Calm down and you will be fine. If they still don't leave then you are already dead. Seriously.
