Apparition Arthur Case Conan Doyle Floating From Ghost Hutchinson Parents Phantom Spectre Spirit Veiled 1922
EDITORS COMMENTS
In the intriguing world of spirit photography, this image from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's seminal work, "The Case for Spirit Photography," published by Hutchinson in 1922, presents a veiled spirit head of a young son floating above his parents. The renowned author and advocate for spiritualism, Doyle believed in the authenticity of such photographs, which he saw as evidence of the continuity of life beyond death. This haunting apparition, with its ethereal veil, seems to defy the laws of physics and gravity, as it hovers in the air, gazing down at its grieving parents. The ghostly specter, reminiscent of a phantom or spectre, appears to offer comfort and reassurance, as it connects the earthly realm with the spiritual one. The photograph, taken in 1922, remains a powerful testament to the enduring belief in the existence of the afterlife and the profound impact of spiritualism on the collective consciousness of the early 20th century.
