Blindfolded Devices Fixed Hoping Mediumship Message Pencil Receive Spirits Paranormal Planchette
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library captures a moment in history circa 1930, where a young girl is seen blindfolded and using a planchette with a pencil fixed in it. The girl appears to be hoping to receive a message from the spirits beyond through automatic writing, showcasing the practice of mediumship and paranormal communication.
The image evokes a sense of mystery and intrigue as we witness the girl engaging with supernatural forces, her faith and belief evident in her focused expression. The use of historical devices like the planchette adds an element of authenticity to this snapshot from the past.
As we gaze at this scene frozen in time, we are reminded of an era when spiritualism and contacting spirits were popular practices. The concept of receiving messages from the other side continues to fascinate us even today, making this photograph not just a glimpse into history but also into our enduring fascination with the unknown.
Mary Evans Prints Online has beautifully preserved this piece of history, allowing us to reflect on how beliefs and practices surrounding mediumship have evolved over time. It serves as a reminder that there is still much about the spirit world that remains shrouded in mystery.
