Clasped Crandon Ectoplasm Manages Margery Mediumship Nostrils Sitters Tightly 1924 Paranormal
EDITORS COMMENTS
Margery Crandon, also known as the 'Margery Massachusetts Medium,' was a renowned spiritualist and medium who gained notoriety in the 1920s for her alleged ability to produce ectoplasm during séances. In this photograph from circa 1924, Margery is seen with her hands tightly clasped by two sitters as she sits in a dimly lit room. Despite the firm grip on her hands, Margery manages to exude ectoplasm from her nostrils, adding to the intrigue and mystery surrounding her paranormal abilities. The production of ectoplasm, a supposedly supernatural substance believed to be the manifestation of spiritual energy, was a common occurrence during spiritualist séances of the time. Margery's demonstrations were particularly sensational due to the volume and consistency of the ectoplasm she produced, which often took the form of slime or gelatinous material. This photograph offers a glimpse into the historical context of the paranormal beliefs and practices of the early 20th century. The image of Margery and her sitters, with their intense focus and the eerie glow of the lamps, evokes a sense of wonder and curiosity about the unknown and the supernatural. The tight grip of the sitters on Margery's hands serves as a reminder of the belief in the materialization of spirits and their connection to the physical world. Margery Crandon's legacy as a medium and her association with ectoplasm continue to fascinate historians, paranormal researchers, and those interested in the history of spiritualism. This photograph, with its intriguing subject matter and historical significance, is a captivating addition to any collection of spiritualist or paranormal imagery.
