Ouija board

The Ouija board, also known as a spirit board or talking board, is a flat board marked with the letters of the alphabet, the numbers 0-9, the words "yes", "no", "hello" (occasionally), and "goodbye", along with various symbols and graphics. It is a registered trademark of Hasbro Inc., which markets and distributes the Ouija Board as part of its line of board games. It uses a planchette (small heart-shaped piece of wood) or movable indicator to indicate the spirit's message by spelling it out on the board during a séance. Participants place their fingers on the planchette and it is moved about the board to spell out words. It has become a trademark that is often used generically to refer to any talking board.

In television
On the WB Network television series Charmed, the Halliwell sisters were playing with their family's spirit board, when it directed them to go to the attic of their ancestral family home. Once there, they discovered the mystical Book of Shadows, which allowed the three siblings to tap into their supernatural calling and become witches.

A Ouija board also appeared in "The Spirit Box" episode of the horror anthology series Fear Itself.
