It began as a harmless game. How did the Ouija board get such a fearful reputation?
The Ouija board is a simple board with letters and numbers, and a planchette to point to them. It was invented by an attorney who marketed it commercially to turn a profit. I’m pretty sure the patent did not include portals to Hell.

Ooh, glow in the dark– want one. My own “occult” experience with Ouija fifty years ago, predicting quite accurately two facts about my life, still haunts me and challenges my natural skepticism.
