He could have thought he bought the cigs because he does it often but because he may have had something on his mind, he forgot. Then when he got home, she just assumed that he had them and they go to get them and POOF it's gone.

And that's the spirit

The spirit caused him to drop it?

Seriously, Freddy Mercury was her brother in another lifetime in the 1700s? and they were playing a piano together? and she was wearing a lovely flowing dress? Wow, get your autograph book because this woman must have been a Medici at the very least! here's a little research on when pianos were invented http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piano

I've got one word - de-lu-sio-nal (okay make that 4!)

they are toys as long as you use them in the correct manner but when you go all stupid and start doing things or asking things that you shouldnt or trying to get some visual reaction as far as seeing something thats when you get into stuff you will later want no part of.

It doesn't really matter how you use the board, the spirits could deceive you just as fast as they made you believe that they were good. I don't care what anyone else says because I'm entitled to my own opinion but Ouija boards are not a toy and shouldn't be taken as one.

For all you know, instead of talking to a friend/family you could be talking to a demon the whole time and not know it. Though I'm sure there are times in which you might contact a family/friend but that's unlikely.

There are other ways to come in contact with a spirit instead of messing with that thing. Your just basically asking for it by messing with it.

I here both ways .... my mom played with one when she was young and nothing happened to her. my friends all say its in the board you get, that they have one that is satanic (sorry about my spelling, dont spell that word nuch) and other ones for different religions. in my opinion i will never use it or let my kids use one. i am scared of them.

i know but my point is a 5-10 year old most likely wont know any better and think its a game and some of them are used alot like a magic 8 ball and the kids kinda move them thereselves which is the the case with the pink one with the questions.But i do understand what your saying.

I personally think it's a bad thing for a toy store to be selling Ouija Boards.

Okay, some people don't believe in them, or don't believe they actually work, but even if they don't, spirit communication is still a real thing out there and this type of "toy" (whether it works or not) is only going to encourage children of a young age to delve into subjects that could be potentially harmful....Do any of us want to see children trying to contact their dead grandparent, or to maybe get children interested in the Occult or any number of interestes that could be borne from such a game?

Also, even if it doesn't work in the way it is supposed to (spirit communication) there have been enough stories of people (adults!) becoming frightened after using one, so we shouldn't really have kids using it.

I do agree with that much tho I wouldnt want my nieces or nefues messing with one although my eldest nefue already has because of his father.

they dont work at all, me and my friend took her sisters (7 yr old) disney princess one and we were asking it the questions on the cards, it was set up excatly like we have with the original boards and those worked but this one difenitly did and doesnt

Not only did we find the original Ouija board in a childrens store but we found a custom only to Toys R Us pink Ouija board for girls. It comes with question cards! My husband and I were both outraged and baffled. They don't know what they're getting kids into.
