The "Charlie Charlie" challenge is another controversial game considered dangerous. This is a guessing game in which the supposed answer to a question is found by waiting for a balanced pencil to point towards the "Yes" or "No" drawn on a sheet of paper.
The game is a modern incarnation of an older Spanish game called Juego de la Lapicera. 'Charlie Charlie' has been popularized in the English-speaking world in 2015.
The game involves crossing two pens or pencils and then asking questions to a supernatural force called Charlie. The top pencil is then expected to rotate to indicate the answer to the question. The first question everyone asks when talking is "can we play?" or "are you here?" or "are you there?"
The upper pencil is easily balanced on a central pivot point. This means it can easily be rotated by light gusts of wind, or the breath of players waiting for the pencil to move. Many people have denounced Charlie Charlie's challenge as demonic. Some exorcists promoted the idea that the game causes spiritual possession, a concern repeated by Muslims in Jamaica and the United Arab Emirates.
In April 2017, the Libyan government banned the game, citing it as the cause of 6 suicides. In Albania there are traces that show that this game was played by Albanian children. A video uploaded to YouTube shows two children no more than 12-13 years old playing this game at 3 am.
Boy 1: Wake up you fool, wake up, let's do Charlie Charlie. We will try an old challenge. We don't shout too much to hear them lead. Charlie Charlie are you here? Charlie Charlie are you killing me? Went to NO
Boy 2: Blood is coming out, you brought blood, bring a farcolete
Boy 1: We're going to end the video here because we're extremely scared
"I did a Charlie Charlie challenge, yes it wasn't true, I didn't understand it at all, I was little and I remembered that it would happen, I also did it with my friends. I realized that it would not be true even to scare them I blew the pencil ffffff. They were crazy, the pencil moved," said Ema, a student.
