EDITORS COMMENTS
This undated photograph showcases an enlarged piece of teleplasm, a supposed paranormal substance produced during a séance, obtained from the medium Helen Duncan during an investigation led by the renowned paranormal investigator Harry Price in Scotland. The image, secured from the Harry Price archive at the National Museum of Scotland, is part of a series of photographs documenting Price's investigations into Duncan's mediumship and that of her associate Esson Maule. Helen Duncan, a Scottish medium, gained notoriety for her alleged ability to produce ectoplasm during séances. Ectoplasm was believed to be a physical manifestation of the spirits' presence, often appearing as a gelatinous substance. Price, a skeptic, suspected that Duncan and Maule were producing the ectoplasm through fraudulent means. In this photograph, the teleplasm, which appears to be made of ordinary paper, is secured to a table with scale annotations, providing a measurement of its size. The investigation into Duncan and Maule's mediumship ultimately led to their exposure in Edinburgh in 1934, revealing the use of tricks and deceit in the production of ectoplasm. This historical photograph offers a glimpse into the world of spiritualism and paranormal investigations during the early 20th century, shedding light on the methods used by mediums and the skepticism of investigators like Harry Price. The photograph's annotations and its role in documenting a significant moment in the history of paranormal investigations make it an intriguing and valuable addition to any collection focused on the paranormal, spiritualism, or the history of investigation techniques.
