Again, many books, over many years tend to blend the information. It's my understanding that even the official 'Spiritualist Mediums' both the traveling variety and those who set up in the camps, were familiar with the concept of open and shut eye mediumship. WitchDocChris: I swear I'm not just trying to be argumentative and I truly appreciate your thoughts on this subject. I'm definitely going to have to watch that a couple times. Wizard of Oz: Thanks for that link as well, that was truly unbelievable.

She seems a bit Caucasian for that particular title, but who am I to judge. I was also interested to see that she refers to herself as The Current Voodoo Queen of New Orleans. After watching the video I'm thinking that it would most likely be an eye opening affair. I'm glad now that I didn't kick out for the 'tour', but I still think the séance would be worth a look. That said, the video you linked was VERY interesting and enlightening. I still forget to check YouTube for stuff and there were a couple three different videos about Bloody Mary's. I like the idea of a 'theatrical' séance.īernice: Thanks for the link. WitchDocChis: Interesting point, but then I assumed that they would have read at least SOME of the same books I have, before setting up to conduct an authentic Victorian style séance. MentalistCreationLab: Thanks for the heads up, I'll definitely give Hudson Tuttle a look.
