A flat board imprinted with the letters of the alphabet, the numbers 0–9, the phrases “yes” and “no,” occasionally the words “hello” and “goodbye,” as well as numerous symbols and pictures, is known as an ouija, also known as a spirit board or talking board. During a séance, messages are written on a planchette, a little heart-shaped piece of wood or plastic that can be moved. The planchette is moved around the board by participants placing their fingers on it to form words. Although “Ouija” is a Hasbro trademark, it’s frequently used to refer to any talking board.

In order to purportedly facilitate quicker communication with spirits, American spiritualists reportedly employed a talking board that is strikingly similar to a modern Ouija board at their camps in the U.S. state of Ohio in 1886. Before American spiritualist Pearl Curran made the Ouija board famous as a divination tool during World War I, the Ouija board was seen as an innocent parlour game unrelated to the occult following its commercial debut by merchant Elijah Bond on July 1, 1890.
The scientific community has rejected and classified the supernatural and paranormal beliefs related to Ouija as pseudoscience. The ideomotor effect, a psychophysiological phenomenon, can best be used to explain how the board behaves by the unconscious actions of the people moving the pointer.



Catholicism and other mainstream Christian faiths have “warned against using Ouija boards,” contending that they can result in demonic possession. Occultists, on the other hand, have differing opinions on the matter; some believe it can be a tool for positive change, while others have echoed the cautions of many Christians and warned “inexperienced users” to stay away from it.

Is The Ouija Experiment a True story?



The Ouija Experiment is a true story about five people who decide to document their experiences with an Ouija board. When the five friends breach the first rule of Ouija boards and depart without saying goodbye, they unintentionally welcome the ghosts into their life. This found video movie follows five friends as they attempt to communicate with the dead. The remaining companions must learn the truth about the causes of the spirits’ deaths and destroy the board before it destroys them as the spirits hunt them down one by one.

Background of Ouija Board




The talking board known as Ouija was created in the United States about 1890. A talking board is a board with printed letters and numbers that cryptically spells out messages using a sliding pointer. The Ouija board was created in Chestertown, Maryland, in 1886, and was given its name in Baltimore, where it was first produced, in 1890. Newspapers have chronicled the use of Ouija since its invention, including how people use it to commit crimes, predict disasters, solve riddles, and connect with the dead. Following World War I, Ouija became more and more popular, and tales of Pearl Curran, a St. Louis housewife who used Ouija to communicate with the ghost of Patience Worth, a person who lived in the 17th century, began to circulate in newspapers. Mrs Curran later published Writings by Patience, several of which received favourable reviews

Ouija what is the truth




Charles Kennard was neither the best nor the luckiest businessman, but he was always on the lookout for opportunities to make money. He doesn’t seem to have been the most sincere person either. In the late 1880s, Kennard, the second child of a prosperous Delaware merchant, relocated to Maryland’s Eastern Shore after creating “secret” bone-mix fertilizer formulations. (To be fair, everyone in the fertilizer industry claimed to have a “secret” formula.) After seeing early success, his Chestertown facility was put up for auction as a result of a mixture of drought, rivalry, and debt. But not all was lost. The four-story wood-frame hotel in Chestertown’s small business neighbourhood had an office adjacent to Kennard’s on the first level. E.C. Reiche was a Prussian immigrant. a former furniture manufacturer who now makes coffinsReiche was also an avid fixer, and Kennard had another idea. Urn undertaker was not an unusual job path for the time.

Background: Two generations prior, a pair of young women from upstate New York by the name of the Fox sisters, who were said to be mediums capable of deciphering enigmatic “knocks” from the beyond, had started a spiritualist movement that persisted in gaining traction across the nation. In fact, spiritualism—the belief that the dead can speak to the living—had only gained popularity in the years following the Civil War because so many husbands, fathers, and sons had been killed in the bloody battles of the war and people were eager to connect with their loved ones who had passed on and find more purpose in their own lives




Newspaper stories of a “talking board” phenomena that were roiling Ohio started to surface in this context in 1886, while Kennard and Reiche were living in the same hallway. One such item from the Associated Press appeared in the local Kent County News. According to a later Baltimore American article, Kennard and Reiche started working together about this time and created at least a dozen of their own “talking” boards after being presumably inspired by the AP account.

The world’s leading expert on talking boards, Robert Murch, reveals that Reiche, the largest coffin manufacturer in town, was producing these prototypes on the side. These prototypes eventually gave rise to the Ouija board. But it’s Kennard, in 1890, when he travels from Chestertown to Baltimore. He starts presenting what he claims is his talking-board invention to possible investors when, in 1890, he moves from Chestertown to Baltimore and opens a real estate business in addition to continuing in the fertilizer industry.


Elijah Bond, a local attorney who asserted that his sister-in-law was a strong medium, eventually showed interest after repeated denials. Soon enough, the Kennard Novelty Company, which was founded 125 years ago on the day before Halloween, began producing Ouija boards in a similar way to how they do today. Bond was correct about his sister-in-law, too: Helen Peters persuaded a dubious U.S. patent office by using Kennard’s innovative talking board. She not only receives credit for gaining the federal government’s seal of approval, attesting that the board met its commitments, but she also receives credit for “receiving” the name O-U-I-J-A from the board itself, which informed her that the odd word signified “good luck.”

(In actuality, Peters’ chain locket at the time had the name “Ouija” engraved on it.)
