This week we are diving into the history of the Spirit Board, also known as the Quija Board. I thought that this time of the year set the perfect scene in time to talk about this historic, mysterious board that so many people have different gut reactions to. How it was first introduced into society and how it has transitioned into more modern times.
I didn’t add any directions on how to properly use a Quija board as I believe everyone has different views, especially with different cultures, regions of the world, religions, and personal ideologies. I don’t feel like it is my place to just throw down a list of how to properly use them when I have never used them before.
