EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing photographic print showcases two undated images of the renowned Scottish medium, Helen Duncan, during a séance. In the first image, Duncan is blindfolded and holding a piece of cloth, believed to be ectoplasm, which appears to emanate from her body. The second image reveals a hand, supposedly materialized during the séance, emerging from the cloth. However, these photographs are not without controversy. They are part of a series documenting Harry Price's investigations into the mediumship of Helen Duncan and Esson Maule, who was instrumental in exposing Duncan during a séance in Edinburgh. The annotations on the card indicate evidence of fraud, suggesting that the ectoplasm and hand were produced using cheesecloth and other means. Price, a renowned paranormal investigator, was a skeptic who aimed to expose fraudulent mediums. His investigations into Duncan's mediumship led to her eventual arrest and trial in 1936, where she was charged with conspiracy and fraud. The trial marked a significant moment in the history of spiritualism, as it was the first time a medium had been prosecuted under the Witchcraft Act of 1735. This historical artifact offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of mediumship and the investigations that sought to uncover the truth behind it. The annotations on the card serve as a reminder of the importance of critical thinking and the ongoing debate surrounding the authenticity of paranormal phenomena.
