It's an interesting question, for me I'm quite skeptical of a few things (but still open minded about them) in particular glass divination, oujia boards, and also automatic writing (the same as you Zoe). I think with all three, it's quite hard to rule out human intervention (whether it's conciously or sub-conciously). Perhaps one of the only ways to determine whether the movement is genuine is to only have those participating that know nothing about the answers to the questions that are being asked. For instance, in a glass divination experiment, have four people participating, all of which know nothing about the history of the building, but then ask them to ask questions such as "Move the glass if the building was built in the 1800s", etc. That would be interesting.

I have to say Im skeptical about a few things - seances, automatic writing (also) and ghost artists (if thats what they are called).

Id never touch a ouija board though
