This is a concentration game, it could even have to do with some sort of psychic power. The mystery of this strange game makes it fun. But it does mess with weird spirit stuff.

How To Play:

Step one: take at least 5 people into a quiet room with a lot of space.

Note: the more people the better.

Step two: have one person lay flat on the floor and play the dead person. The others sit down surrounding that person.

Note: make sure that person is comfortable because they have to be completely still.

Ex.

- pillow

- blanket (carpet can be itchy)

- head rest of some sort

None of these will affect the game.

Step three: have the person laying down close their eyes and concentrate on being as light as a feather, and well, dead.

Note: this person can not move, speak, or open their eyes.

Step four: have one person be the lead. This person has to make up a story of how the dead person died. Then they have to ask the spirits to help lift this person up.

Step five: have the people surrounding take two fingers on each hand and place under the laying persons legs, arms, neck, and back, if you have five players then have two people on each side.

Note: It will be easier if the amount of people on each side of the laying person is balanced.

Step six: all of the people that are taking part (besides the laying person) will close their eyes and concentrate as hard as they can to imagine lifting up the laying person.

Note: no one can open their eyes, move, or loose focus.

Step seven: have everyone surrounding continue to concentrate and chant the words, "light as a feather, stiff as a board. Light as a feather, stiff as a board." Chant this based on the amount of people, chant the amount of people plus one.

Ex.

5 players = 6 chants

6 = 7

7 = 8

8 = 9

9 = 10

Ect.

Every player has to continue (besides laying person) that cycle with their eyes closed and complete concentration, if the person starts rising... Good luck.

Note: the longer you chant, the better chance of rising.

Things that could keep it from happening:

- someone stops chanting

- someone opens their eyes

- the person in the middle moves

- someone talks

- someone looses consentration

- noise in the room

Well, the chances of this working are slim, but if you can concentrate pretty well... Then it might just work.

My mom said she tried it at a slumber party when she was a teenager and it actually worked.

Good luck
