I want to do an Ouija board to connect to my mum?

[Anonymous]

I lost my mum in 2001 (please no sympathy, it is not what I'm looking for), for several years now I've wanted to do an ouija board because I need answers from her. I've fully hit adulthood and there's so many unanswered questions and my mind won't be put to rest unless I get the answers. My dads a medium and he's made me promise I will NEVER touch an ouija board, its the only reason I haven't done one; I don't want to betray him!
I've just watched Insidious chapter 3 and ironically its basically the story what could happen to me if I invite negativity into this world (it won't be as dramatic). If I did invite negatives my dad and his medium friends will have to bail me out, I've just realised how stupid I would be if I did do it. Obviously with my dad being a medium I 100% understand the dangers and disadvantages of doing it, there's approximately 1% chance my mother would actually come through. Its a massive wake up call for me to keep well away from them, I personally think the writers/producers of Insidious chapters are mediums and they are well aware of the different planes and its like they're sending a message out to people not to touch ouija boards.
Does anyone else find it weird how its basically what I had planned and its given me a wake up call not to do it?
I'm honestly freaked out by it right now :|

You would need a REAL Ouija board, not one of those fakes. A man gave my brother in law one once. My sister wasn't pleased so she threw it away, she found it in their house so she burned it and it came back again. They decided to move and leave it in that house for the new owners lol. Yes, I'm serious. By the way, you will only be able to contact malevolent spirits (demons). If she's in heaven you won't be able to reach her unless you pray and beg God to send an angel with a message to her. Other than that, there is a divide placed between these worlds for a reason. A demon will only tell you what you want to hear and secretly laugh. Stay away from Ouija boards. It can cause negative effects on your life and a spirit can hover over you making your life hell without you even realizing. Find closure some other way and let it go. We all miss our dead relatives but I doubt those who are in heaven even remember who we are. Don't get involved in the supernatural. Keep Pandora's box closed or you'll end up falling down a rabbit hole.

You might think you are speaking to your mom when in reality you are just speaking to a demons... And by using the Ouija board you are opening a door for them to enter... And you might regret it... Please do some research before you do it... And hey, I know you miss your mom and all that... But hey, she is now in a better place... Let her rest in peace

I'm completely aware of everything, I have been ever since my dad sat me down and explained why I should never do one. The film has completely opened my eyes now, if they attack I would definitely be too weak to defend myself.

[HorrorFan]

If your father and his friends are mediums, can't they try to contact her?

A part of me wants to think it's all BS and the other part is fascinated by the concept of Ouija boards. I've read so many Ouija stories online and it's like dozens of teenage girls naming the same handful of demons over different decades. Both interesting and creepy.

Either way, good luck with it. I won't tell you not to do it, because honestly... the world seems awfully boring if we don't look into the void every now and then.

[TsubasaCorrupted]

If you do, be careful and have someone there that has done it before and knows what to do.
Also bare in mind it can be anything that you are talking to. So just be safe, yeah?

[Ярило]

I would never ever do it. Can your dad not connect with people on the other side. I know each medium is different, but you could always go the safe route and try to make an appointment with someone like Theresa Caputo.

[Asker]

Mediums cannot contact their love ones, its practically impossible. If I went to a medium who had no contact with me or my dad there is a possibility they could try and get my mum to come through. I'm from Europe and I've never heard of that woman, there is high mediums in my country. I just personally don't want to go to them because they could feed me what I want to hear and it won't settle my mind if that makes sense?

[Ярило]

True, I would just try to move past it then, even though it will be a long and difficult process. I don't know what your religion is or if you have one, but I'm always comforted by the thought that I will see those I care about again after I die.

[BellePepper]

I'm glad you've decided not to use one. Ouija boards are so dangerous. Especially for someone who's open and looking for someone else. I hope you're able to keep your promise to your dad.

[Asker]

I promised him over 3/4 years ago, I determined to never touch one due to him. I kind of know how to keep negativity away from me but I know its not worth risking it when I'm definitely not an export in medianship.

[BellePepper]

Good for you! Knowing your limits is half the battle.

[Neko_Chan]

Don't trivialize the memory of your mom by trying to "summon" her with a toy. It's not going to work, and your just going to be disappointed.

[Asker]

I was only going to do it because there is a 1% chance that she would come through the the other 99% I would invite something negative which will manipulate the whole situation. Watching the film has completely opened my eyes to how stupid I would be if I went through with it.

[Neko_Chan]

Ouija boards work because of the ideomotor effect, not because of demons/spirits. It's completely safe to use one, I just think it will taint your memories of her (since you believe they work).

[Asker]

I've had medians come to my house, I personally believe there is negative/positive spirits; I've seen far too much for it not to exist. That's my own personal beliefs though and if you think that it's just ideomotor effects then I completely respect your beliefs. Its almost been 14 years and I can't let go of her, only reason I wanted to do it. I know its completely the wrong decision :P

[Omar5881]

R u serious rn, that game is stupid contacting a soul according to mythology needs to be done through a demon if the soul in hell and through an angel if the soul in heaven and u have to get a sidekick to call them

[Asker]

You've got a picture of the Joker has your DP and you ask if I'm serious? (why so serious :P)
You don't need negativity at all, I would consider looking it up (sorry if that sounds rude)

[Omar5881]

U R RUDE TO THE JOKER, NOW U WILL DIE MUHA MUHA MUHAHAHAHAH

[Omar5881]

The point is even if u done this ouija thing it won't work that's just dumb that's a demon controlling it, it won't be ur mother

[Beautifiedgirl123]

All I wanna say is...

You can try all you want, but all you will accomplish is wasting your time. Ouija boards are just inert objects. They can't do anything. And they certainly can't channel or invite "spirits", if those exist.

[Dandeus]

They're fake. And your "medium" dad is a crackpot. That shit isn't real. Sane people know those movies are made up stories for shits and giggles, not to be taken seriously.

[Anonymous]

my mother told me as a child to stay away from ouija boards...

[Asker]

I've had the exact same talk off my dad and my friends who are aware I want to do one have told me to stay well away from them.

[Völva]

Be careful. You can be lied to easily by a malevolent spirit.

[FierceBrosnan]

I wouldn't try anything spiritual with a board game made by Parker Bros.

[admles]

An oujia board is a toy, made by Parker Brothers lol

[Anonymous]

Why don't you ask your father or his medium friends your questions for your mom? I contacted my deceased mother through a medium. I had a scary experience with a ouija board so I would say avoid it, but I'm no expert.

[Christie_01]

Let me tell you about Jesus...

[Asker]

Shove your Jesus up your ass, sorry but I'm not religious and if I wanted a lecture about a man made bible I shall go to my local church and ask the priest.

[Anonymous]

Some doors should never be opened.

[Asker]

I know, I'm so glad I have watched the film. I know for certain I wouldn't get my mum and I'd most likely get something really nasty come back.

[Waffles731]

I don't know how it will turn out but good luck

[HappyToBeAlive]

No. Magic never gets you what you want.

[EmeraldOfEnaeno]

Blah blah sympathy blah

[Anonymous]

Don't do it. Please just don't.

[Anonymous]

not a good idea!

[Lauradouglas]

It doesn't work
