This one I also wonder if my older sister had it on video. I really only remember seeing it once. I think it was already 1992 when she was living back home, so maybe that's why I remember it so well.

Let me be clear up front that any limited praise I offer
for Witchboard, a 1986 horror movie
about a mishap with a Ouija board, is not meant to suggest that it’s worth
seeking out. It is, by almost every measurable calculus, a hilariously bad
movie. But it happens to aspire to do something more than most horror flick
filmmakers even dream about. Whereas the majority of horror films, especially
in the slasher sub-genre of the 70s and 80s, are interested solely in killing
off a bunch of indistinguishable characters who have nothing interesting to
say, and doing it in varied and gruesome ways.
