Comfort-shmomfort. It was fucking scary.
We'd played with a Ouija board for awhile and it had always been active. Strange things would happen when we used it - the lights would flicker, the planchette would stop moving about 10 seconds before the phone would ring or someone would knock on the door, we saw black shadows darting across the room. Doors would open and close on their own...just general creepy shit. Years before (in a different house in a different town), my dad had used one with my older brothers and sisters and suggested we contact a certain 'spirit' that had always responded to them. He told me its name and said that it always started with "Long time no see" when they started. I went back to my friends', we called out the name my dad had given me, and sure enough, it responded with "Long time no see." I wasn't touching the board and had told no one about the phrase.
We finally decided to stop using it altogether when I was sitting with a friend and said casually, "Meh...I'm sure there's a logical reason for all this stuff...this place isn't haunted!" and the ashtray he had been using jumped off the floor and flipped over. No one was near it.
That was it. No more Ouija board, no more playing around.
You wouldn't get me to play with one again for a million dollars.
