Spirit of the coin is a fun, spooky game. Similar to the Ouija board, the spirit of the coin uses a talking board to contact spirits and communicate with them. You just need a coin, a piece of paper, and a pen, then you’re ready to turn out the lights and talk to the dead. Just remember not to upset the spirits!
Steps
-
Find a large, white sheet of paper, a pen, and a coin. The paper should be no smaller than an 8’ by 11’ to allow room to write everything on the game board and allow enough room for the coin to move. You can use any coin, but choosing a silver coin may help to repel the evil spirits. -
Write the alphabet around the edges of the paper. This will allow the spirit to spell out answers to your questions. If you want you can draw them in a similar pattern to the Ouija board. Draw A-N arched along the top and the O-Z along the bottom. The shape the letters make on the paper would be similar to an oval on the paper.Advertisement -
Write numbers 0-9 across the center of the paper. Some questions may require a numerical answer. You may want to find out how old the spirit is or when they were alive. -
Add words such as START, END, YES, or NO. These will provide easier answer options to simple questions. It’s always faster to ask a yes-or-no question than one that requires more explanation. You can use the start and end options to call a spirit or end the game.

Choose a dark room for playing this game. Do not turn on the lights. Most often this game is played at night as spirits are said to be more active late in the day. Light one or more candles so that you can see the board. [1] X Research source -
Sit in a circular arrangement around the board. Set the coin on the board at START. Each one of the persons should keep a finger on the coin. Do not push the coin. -
Invite the spirits. Begin by asking a question that can be answered with a yes or a no. The coin will begin to move when the spirit answers. It may take a few minutes for the coin to warm up. Just be patient. [2] X Research source -
Pose questions to the spirit and receive answers from the moving coin on the alphabets. These answers may be spelled out quickly. You may want to have someone write down the answers that isn’t touching the coin.- Remain respectful of the spirits. Thank them for talking to you.
- Don’t automatically believe the board. Spirits are not always going to speak the truth.
-
At the end, place the coin on the END or GO option and that would end the game. You need to let the spirits know the session is over and it is time to go. Be sure to remove the coin from the paper and put the paper away. You don’t want to risk letting the spirits escape.

QuestionAre you able to play this game alone?Community AnswerYes, you can, but it is not recommended. Also, I point out that it is less likely to work if you are by yourself since spirits are using your subconscious to move the coin. It is better for you to play with a friend.

Tips
- Many believe that the coined spirit game and others like it work by the ideomotor effect, rather than by spiritual intervention. This effect is an involuntary physical movement that happens when someone tries not to move. [3] X Research source Nevertheless, it doesn't hurt to be cautious about this game and similar matters that claim to be "other-worldly."Thanks
- Maintain control of the session. If there are answers you don’t like, you can always say "goodbye" or "end" and close the board.Thanks
