Then, in the 1970s, ouija boards took a dark turn by being portals to evil in almost every on-screen appearance. Ouija and the supernatural was taken more seriously in cinema starting in the late 1940s.

Other divination methods such as table tipping were cumbersome, and they required a medium which made them prone to fraud.Д®arly film appearances of ouija boards rarely involve spooks or scares.
