EDITORS COMMENTS
This undated photograph captures the moment during Harry Price's investigations into the mediumship of Helen Duncan, a Scottish woman known for her alleged ability to produce ectoplasm during séances. In this image, Duncan is shown blindfolded and with her head covered in a cloth, surrounded by an ectoplasmic substance that appears to reach down to the floor. However, upon closer inspection, the annotations on the photograph reveal the truth behind the scene. Price, a renowned paranormal investigator, was determined to expose any fraudulent practices within the mediumship world. This photograph is one of several from his investigations into Duncan and Esson Maule, who was also involved in the exposure of Duncan during a séance in Edinburgh. The annotations on the photograph indicate that the ectoplasm was in fact made of cheesecloth and other materials, and that the apparitions produced during the séance were fabricated. The bizarre scene in the photograph, with Duncan draped in cloth and the ectoplasmic substance reaching down to the floor, was all part of the act. The use of blindfolds and curtains added to the mystique and intrigue, but ultimately, Price's investigations revealed the truth behind the paranormal phenomena. This historical photograph serves as a reminder of the importance of skepticism and the dangers of believing in things without proper evidence. The photograph is part of the Harry Price Collection, which documents Price's extensive investigations into the paranormal. This particular photograph, annotated with evidence of fraudulence, is a fascinating glimpse into the world of mediumship and the lengths some would go to deceive the public.
