About this listen

 Host Suzanne Clores talks to photographer Shannon Taggart about her incredible photographic journey through the world of Spiritualism, the American 19th century religion that popularized the seance, or sacred circle in which to communicate with the dead. Taggart spent 17 years documenting entranced mediums in the historic Spiritualist community in Lily Dale, New York, and hunting across the world for mediums who could produce the elusive substance of ectoplasm. She shares her incredible discoveries about Spiritualist Mediums, Spiritualist History, and the art of capturing paranormal phenomena on film. Learn more about your ad choices.
