Students warned against playing ‘Charlie, Charlie’

A dangerous new game that is said to conjure up demons is going viral on the
Internet and around schools which usually leaves many people injured in the
process.
It is considered a mash up of the Ouija board and bloody Mary, But this game
is physically injuring its participants.
Parents and teachers of UAE schools are cautioning students against a game
promising contact with spirits and demons as it leaves them scared and
traumatized.
Several parents have said that their children returned home scared after
playing the game with friends at school. Called the ‘Charlie Charlie
Challenge’, the game went viral over the Internet earlier this week and even
caught up with school students in the UAE.
The game requires two pens or pencils placed on top of each other creating a
grid with the four sectors labelled yes and no. The players pose a question to
the ‘supernatural being’ named Charlie by saying
“Charlie, Charlie, come play with me”. The upper pencil is expected to point
towards ‘yes’ or ‘no’.
The game is easy to create anywhere with a few pencils and a piece of paper.
The movement of the pencil can been explained through simple physics, with the
cross arrangement providing an effective pivot for the upper pen to help it
move, though this hasn’t stopped the game from achieving massive popularity.
Following the popularity of the game on social media, the Ajman Police on
Wednesday decided to intervene after it was noticed that videos were being
circulated excessively among students.
Police have warned schools and parents on this dangerous new game, in June, Dr
Captain Mohammed bin Hazeem Al Suwaidi, Head of Social Police department at
the Ajman Police, told the students in a simple language that the game has
nothing to do with devil, witches or any supernatural power. “It is only a
kind of cinema trick-like,” he said.
He urged students not to believe in any video, news, or any post on social
media that affects and weaken the Islamic values and culture of the people. He
also told them that they need to fight this kind of intrusions that destroy
thought.
Captain Al Suwaidi, said at the end of the lecture, he told students to be
open with their parents and guardians and talk to them about any strange and
weird things they hear or see on social media.
A parent said she was worried by the growing popularity of the game at her
son’s school. “As I picked my son from school, I asked him if he played the
game. He said he had played it a couple of times. Last evening, when he was
studying in his room, he came running to me and told me he heard someone
laughing in his room. I didn’t know of all this until then,” said Ariba Khalid
whose eight-year-old has become scared.
Another concerned parent said she had warned her kids and asked them not to
play any game with a pencil in school. “My son told me they are playing it in
school and they get either ‘yes’ or ‘no’ as answers. I have asked him to avoid
it,” said A.S.
The Charlie Charlie Challenge is growing in popularity as teens upload videos
to social media of them trying to call on an evil spirit. However, according
to a report by Uproxx, the challenge is nothing, but a viral marketing
campaign for an upcoming horror movie.
Clive Pierrepont, Director of Communications at Taaleem said: “At present,
although the school counsellors are aware of the game’s popularity and origin,
they are not highlighting it because of obvious reasons. However, they are
being alert to the possible dangers and challenges of Internet sensations like
this and monitoring the situation.”
Teachers are advising students to stay away from the game and instead
participate in wholesome games and activities that do not influence them in a
wrong way.
Here at a few things that you need to know about the #CharlieCharlieChallenge.
But do not start to summon spirits and blame it on us!
You need two pencils. These challenge takers are lying two pencils on a piece
of paper in the form of a cross and writing “yes” and “no” in four boxes
formed by the cross.
The question is then asked, “Charlie, Charlie, are you here?” If the pencil
rolls towards yes, folks are often running – literally running!
“Yes” and “no” can be erased from the squares and filled with questions that
are to be answered.
The challenge has been played by thousands of young people, testing its
reality – some have found out the hard way and have been physically attacked
by this demon.
Brian White, from Biloxi Mississippi, reports he was attacked by Charlie the demon after he taunted the spirit saying, “You’re not real, you’re a fake, come get me if you are who you say you are! Show me you’re here!”
That’s when White said he was thrown facedown and violently attacked. He said
it felt like somebody was slicing him with razor blades.
When the attack stopped, his friends saw that his back was covered in scratch
marks!
This game is serious! Do not attempt this game unless you are ready to play
with the devil himself.
