A spirit board, commonly referred to as a Ouija board, a name trademarked by Parker Brothers, is a board that is used as a tool to contact spirits. The fingers of the participants are placed on the planchette, the triangle or heart shaped pointer that is used, which then moves around a board covered with numbers, letters and symbols in order to spell out messages.
