The curious thing is this.... The legend is that the name “Alice Cooper” came from a session with a Ouija board, largely chosen because it sounded innocuous and wholesome, in humorous contrast to the band’s image and music.

How can you be a Christian and still use the name taken from an Ouija Board?

Cooper himself has said the Ouija board story is about as true as the story about him biting the head off a chicken.

How can you be a Christian and believe that an Ouija board has the devil lurking inside it, guiding your hand? Lucifer, old scratch, Beelzebub from Hasbro.

LOL,, Run for the hills. Dude, its a parlor game that generally only works on idiots.

In before the hushed story,,,”one time when we were young, we asked the board,,,,”

Come on over and we’ll drink whiskey and watch the Legend of Boggy creek. That’s a scare there. Especially when he grabs that guy on the throne, right through the window.

The story that I heard was that his band at the time was experiencing too much competition from folk-singing types, so he changed the name to something that people would think was a folk-singer. I’ve never heard of the Ouija board story.
