Wait…I used a Ouija board as a child. We just had it in the house. Which is strange once I think about it…my parents were raised in Methodist/Baptist households…I was baptized in a Methodist Church…Aahhh man! Are you all seriously saying I messed with the occult?
 
In all seriousness, though, I would likely throw it out, come what may. I would say they are usually benign, but from another vantage point, it’s dangerous for the people in the house who might use it.

I would probably throw it away, myself. I wouldn’t ask. That’s just what I would do.

if i do that they will throw me out and I will literally be homeless… the house owner made it clear to me that the board will not leave the house…and that if i did threw it out they would immediately replace it . in their words “luckily these things are mass produced”
 
It is a potentiality,I would say, to be the occult. It seems to me that it would depend on how seriously a person took it and so forth.
 
Well, just pray for them, if you choose not to throw it out.
 
I just took it as a joke…and prehormonal entertainment.

The boy who was the person that The Exorcist movie was based on was taking it quite seriously. He was fully intent on opening a door way to the other side. And that happened.
 
I hope these tips for purifying the house you live in would help. I got them from a book written by a famous healing priest:

Put blessed and exorcised salt in all four corners of the rooms of your house and on both sides of each door and each window

Cross yourself with holy water and holy oil,including all the walls of house

Wear blessed objects (crosses, medals, rosaries, scapular)

Cross yourself with holy oil and holy water and drink if possible

Chew a few grains of blessed salt

Pray with holy images

Place holy pictures, holy statues, icons and Holy Bible prominently in the house

If the house is infested, ask your bishop or a priest to exorcise it with lustral water.

All these practices of piety really help. But you must practice constantly and never stop until you leave that house. Because once the demon is cast out(if indeed there’s a demon showing his presence there), since he’s stubborn, he will always try to come back.

I’m not trying to scare you though. I just want you to have peace of mind because I see that the presence of the Ouija board really distresses you. Following the aforementioned tips, I believe, would help you.
 
Are your host’s Christians? I think a Oijiai board would pose more danger to people who are not Christians because they would be less protected.

On another note, you could put a miraculous medal in each person’s room. (blessed, or course) They can be had for little. Mother Teresa always scattered them here and there for various purposes. She seems to be a saint with a lot of smarts. 🙂

Maybe they will have no interest in it anymore and throw it out themselves or something like that.

the host is a former catholic and is very anti - catholic now. The child does not go to church. It’s so sad
 
Put a green scapular in the kid’s pillow or somewhere in his room. 🙂

(it’s an interesting devotion. I encourage you to read up on it.)

As long as you are faithful, go to Confession and receive the Eucharist, no worry.

Think of evil like a virus. The Sacraments are the best inoculation.
 
I don’t think you should have brought it up to your host family that you even found it.
You should have kept it to yourself.
Do you go to Mass? Bless yourself with Holy Water. If you are home and they bring out the Ouija Board, excuse yourself and go to your room. You are a guest in their house. If it makes you that uncomfortable, start looking for a new place to live.
 
I would tend to agree with CRM brother.

It is something quite dangerous for the family to have, and there is not justification for it.

I played with a ouijai board when I was just 6 or 7, i think, with the babysitter. I think it invited something dark to approach, but I would prefer not to elaborate on it. They are more dangerous than people realize. I really think this is true.

Nonetheless, Barnes and Nobles always has them, I think, and other places like that.

I was pondering to myself what a young teen age Padre Pio would do in this situation. He had a very deep spiritual insight and sense that extremely few of us have, however.

The best thing you can do is what you have chosen to do have nothing to do with it. Follow the Lord and obey His commands. Evil can’t harm you if you have not made the decision to participate with the board. It is of no fault of your own. You simply live where people use it. That being said you may experience something because of it being used there but you are not in danger only those who chose of their free will to use it. Remember to pray the rosary and stay connected to a local church. Take the eucharist and frequent confession. These are what you need to keep the evil one at bay. You do not have to be so afraid. God is stronger. But yes when you can move it would be wise.
 
I’m tempted to take it outside and light it on fire. 🙂

More conservatively, praying the rosary while they are using it would be a good weapon.
 
These things can be pretty serious. A ouija board is a form of seance to connect with dead people. Seances themselves are serious because you never know who will come through. Most of the time it is a demon pretending to be a human who died. I knew a girl who graduated from eighth grade one summer, and she spent some time with her friends and they had a seance. This girl became “possessed” by something. She was lucky, though, because it left and I don’t think it came back. She began to talk in a strange way, identifying herself as a mob hit man who didn’t want to leave. The episode lasted for a short time.
 
Wow, that is really creepy. Glad it did not last.

I read in a book by one exorcists that sometimes an exorcism can be very short and then the spirit leaves. Others , he said, can be several years. And he said that some were not ever permanently successful. Most people have never heard that some exorcisms never succeed even after years, but that is what he said. I’m sure that must be a rare occurrence, though.
