Re: Ouija boards---what's your story?
I was really into movie memorabilia 10-15 years ago. In the early 90s a movie called "Witchboard" came out and among the freebies that came with the press kit was a miniature ouija board, complete with a planchette about the size of a thumb nail. I brought it to to work and invited a co-worker to try it with me. We both put one finger on the edge of the planchette and before we even asked any questions it immediately began moving. We gave each other the usual "Are you doing that?" looks, realized neither one of us was, and called it quits before anything could be spelled out.
It spooked her (pardon the pun) something awful and she walked around the rest of the day hugging herself like she was cold. Funny thing is we both approached the experiment as hardline skeptics. I haven't touched one since and judging from others' experiences I won't be touching one again soon.
