Print on Demand. Delving into the perplexing realm of spirit rapping and table tipping, this book unmasks these phenomena as elaborate hoaxes perpetrated by fraudulent mediums. The author, an esteemed scientist, meticulously dissects each trick, revealing the clever techniques employed to deceive the gullible. By exposing the machinations behind these purported supernatural occurrences, the author challenges the credibility of spiritualism, arguing that it exploits the human desire for the paranormal and serves as a tool for financial exploitation. However, the book is far from dismissive; it delves into the historical and psychological underpinnings of witchcraft and sorcery, tracing their evolution from ancient demonology to the present-day craze. The author provides a comprehensive analysis of the psychological mechanisms that make people susceptible to such deceptions. This book is an invaluable resource for skeptics, a fascinating read for those interested in the history of superstition, and an essential guide for anyone seeking to navigate the murky waters of spiritualism. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…

We do not attribute to Satan any direct agency in this matter other than has always been ascribed to him in the crimes and misdeeds of man from the fall down to this present time. That neither the prince of the power of the air, nor his imps (unless they be in human shape), rap out intelli gence by sounds, get under tables and tip them over, swing them round, or perform any Of these extraordinary feats, which so many among us are determined to invest with supernatural character and origin. Nor do we consider that the arch enemy Of man has brought any new power or agency into Operation to further his mischievous designs. Far from it. A new power? It would frustrate his schemes in their very inception. A new power? It is a lawful subject of pursuit, to the very exhaustion of mental resources. A new power? Its bare mention is an arousing signal to the devotees of science, and upon the first scintillation of plausibility, the midnight lamp will burn throughout Christendom, till its capabilities and subserviency to man's actual wants are unfolded. No! The tempter knows his game.
