Why doesn't my ouija board work?

I've been playing with ouija boards for almost a year now.

At first I started off with homemade ones.

I finally bought a Parker Brothers one.

For a while, it worked perfectly everywhere in my house.

I found out I have 9 ghosts in my room and a portal in the mirror in the hallway.

Now, the ouija board doesn't seem to work anywhere in my house.

I tried it with three different people, in various rooms in my house.

We get nothing.

Its not the people or me, because we tried the ouija board at her house, and it worked perfectly.

Is there something wrong with my house?

Is it the spirits?

help !

    IT IS VERY POSSIBLE THE 9 SPIRITS YOU SAY YOU HAVE ARE PROTECTING YOU IN YOUR HOME BY PREVENTING YOU FROM CONTACTING A EVIL ENTITY WAITING ON THE OTHER SIDE TO BE INVITED IN YOUR HOME

    I doubt that your Ouija board ever worked.

    There is an acronym for what is going on.

    It's B.S

    No offense but if there is a paranormal realm in which spirits and ghosts linger after death then I doubt that something bought from Toys 'R' Us can help us contact said realm.

    There is nothing wrong with your house, it's not the spirits. You're just gaining sanity.

    (sigh) A Ouija board is one of the paranormal things that science completely understands. The participants move the little gizmo subconsciously, a phenomenon known as the ideomotor effect.

    If you want your Ouija board to “work” again, make sure most of the participants have an idea of what you want it to say, and it will say it.

    Ouija boards work on the ideomotor effect - you're moving it yourself, whether you realize it or not. That's right, it's all you - you're not talking to ghosts, you don't have ghosts, you don't have portals or spirits or demons - you've been making it all up. And your inability to make it up is also you. Sorry, this has been studied for hundreds of years - you're not contacting anything but your own subconscious.

    CORRECT ANSWER: It never worked. You don't have ghosts in your room because they don't exist. You do not have a portal in the mirror in the hallway.
