","description":"<p>If you follow us on social media, you’ll know we recently asked if we should use a Ouija board, and, well… let’s just say the response was overwhelming. The general consensus? <em>“Girl, is you dumb?”</em></p><p><br></p><p>Ouija boards have been a staple of horror movies and ghost stories for decades, but Kim started wondering—are they really <em>exclusively</em> bad? If they truly connect with spirits, why do people assume only negative entities come through? Is this reputation deserved, or is there more to the story?</p><p><br></p><p>In this episode, we’re diving deep into the mystery and history of the Ouija board, tackling questions like:</p><p>•\tWhat exactly is a Ouija board, and where did it come from?</p><p>•\tHow does it work (if it works at all)?</p><p>•\tWhat’s the proof—both scientific and experiential?</p><p>•\tAnd most importantly, is it really all bad? Or is its terrifying reputation based on something else entirely?</p><p><br></p><p>Join us on this episode as we investigate the spooky, the skeptical, and everything in between.</p><p><br></p><p>*Warning: As proud Canadians, we do get a bit salty in this episode about our current frenemy to the South*</p><p><br></p><p>Keywords: Ouija board, spiritualism, ghost stories, paranormal, Canadian, haunted experiences, cultural significance, history, podcast, supernatural, beliefs, Satanic Panic, spirituality, ideometer effect, personal experiences, church influence, listener stories, consciousness</p>","author_name":"Ghosts, I Guess"}
