Do the Dead Return? A True Story of Startling Seances in San Francisco

by Anonymous

About this book

An anonymous newspaper man recounts encounters with the medium Louis Schlesinger and the séances arranged to test his performances. Beginning with a meeting in Modesto, the narrative follows experiments involving written names, folded slips and messages attributed to people who had died.

Accounts by participants in San Francisco describe what they saw and the circumstances under which the sittings took place. The book brings the narrator’s story together with the Examiner séance, further daylight demonstrations and descriptions of the witnesses. This is the complete original 1900 publication, retaining its portrait, supporting accounts and conclusion.
