"Planchette"--the word evokes terror in our minds. Normally, we call it a planchette, when a group of people sit down in some quiet place to call up a spirit, to get their questions answered. For this process, a flat board consisting of letters, numbers and other symbols is used to get the answers from the departed souls. Now, this is not an ordinary board! It is known as Ouija or Spirit board, with letters, numbers, symbols, and movable indicator points. Participants in planchette are supposed to place their fingers on the board, after which they call up the spirit. The indicator then starts moving on the board, to spell out messages.
