Mark Twain's Ghost? The Talking Dead from Séances & Spiritualism

In this episode of Talking Strange, host Aaron Sagers sits down with author and paranormal historian Marc Hartzman to explore the eerie, fascinating world of nineteenth- and early twentieth-century spirit communication. Hartzman’s latest book, The Talking Dead: A Collection of Messages from Beyond the Veil, 1850s to 1920s, invites readers to eavesdrop on the afterlife through an extraordinary anthology of séance transcripts and spirit writings from the height of the Spiritualist movement. These are the messages once shared in parlors, séance rooms, and Spiritualist circles, and allegedly dictated by voices from beyond the veil. _______________________________________________________________ The Talking Strange Show with Aaron Sagers is a weekly paranormal pop culture show featuring celebrity and author interviews, as well as experts in all things strange and unexplained.
