it's a tool, it could work if you use it as such. if you see it as a toy, it doesn't have the energy behind it to do anything but entertain. it's not evil and you won't instantly get haunted if you touch one, but if used wrong you could get in trouble. research before using so you know what to do, just keep an open mind.
They're real they do work most often the spirits whom are contacted through the ouija are those whom reside on 'the lower astral plane,spirits are often very confused and may have died a violent or sudden death; murder, suicide, etc.Therefore, many violent, negative and potentially dangerous conditions are present to those using the board. Often times several spirits will attempt to come through at the same time but the real danger lies when you ask for physical proof of their existence! You might say, 'Well, if you're really a spirit, then put out this light or move that object!' What you have just done is simple, you have 'opened a doorway' and allowed them to enter into the physical world and future problems can and often do arise.
Consider cleansing yourself spiritually before using the board, Meditate and try envisioning yourself surrounded by a bright light, Take an herbal or salt bath.

I don't know too much on Ouiji Boards, but one thing I have heard quite a few times is if you're going to be using a board to connect to a spirit or entity that you shouldn't ever take your hands off the center piece (Not sure what it's called) and when you are finished speaking to them make sure you address 'Goodbye' and let them know you are leaving so that you close that gateway between you and them so you do not bring them back with you. I would look up more about it and just do methods to protect yourself. Be safe!
