Ghost Photo Reproduces Edgar Wallace
LONDON, Oct. 1 (I.N.S.).—A “ghost” picture sensation was
created here when John Myers, who claims to have perfected
a method of taking spirit photographs, reproduced a picture of
the late Edward Wallace. Every protection was taken against fraud. Besides two photographers and the medium, three other men were present at the experiment.
Five persons sat in a group
while Myers opened the shutter
of the camera and went into a
trance. After a few minutes he
came out of the trance and
closed the shutter. Another
plate was inserted, and this
time the medium went into a
longer trance, during which he cried out:
“I see Edgar.” When the plates were developed a few moments latter, a likeness of the famous writer of mystery stories appeared.
