Interesting to see one of my photos at 2:17 perhaps it would be nice to ask for permission or at least add some attribution at the end?

I didn't get the photo from you or I would have, but I have no problem with adding whatever information you provide. Just send it to me.

WHAT IS ECTOPLASM????

[EVPClassABC]

Ectoplasm is a supposed physical substance that manifests as a result of spiritual energy or psychic phenomenon. It is a seemingly lifelike substance, solid or vaporous in nature, that allegedly exudes from the body of the medium and can be transformed into materialized limbs, faces and even the entire bodies of spirits. Ectoplasm often appears to be milky white in color and smells like ozone, according to most reports.

You know for a fact, huh? Don't make me laugh. True, there are a lot of fakers and con-artists out there, but there are people who really did this stuff. Look up D.D. Home, the greatest physical medium of the age. There are people who do it still, today. Don't close your mind to the infinite possibilities and mysteries of life.

Science cannot explain everything though.

[MistaSpookie]

Amazing

[BadPsychicsTV]

@ThePoliticalMusician Thats correct. But science can and does explain most things. Religion and spiritualism does not explain anything at all. Just telling stories with no proof. At least science tries to show how something works, spiritualism just says "this is what happens, believe it cause i say so"

[BadPsychicsTV]

@TheFireInHeaven I know about DD Home. He levitated out of one window then back in through another! You gotta be pretty dumb to believe that story. Magicians do TRICKS like this all the time.

[BadPsychicsTV]

@bluesfashion Usually cheesecloth or chiffon sometimes muslin. It is packed up tightly and placed inside the mediums vagina or anus (hence the smells people report being like human fluids). Helen Duncan actually swallowed the material and then regurgitated it during the seance!

During the seance the medium removes the material and manipulates it to fool gullible sitters.

@EVPClassABC Hi! May I use an image featured on here at 1.07 for an art project about Victoriana? It's entitled 'Curious Pursuits' and I'm doing a paiting inspired by ectoplasm. Cheers!

@ThePoliticalMusician no science can't explain everything but that does not mean that what it cant explain at the moment is supernatural in any way. To say that something is supernatural just because we cant explain it right know is what people did in the dark ages

[heavytom89]

@TheFireInHeaven and by the way what makes you belive D.D Home was the real deal??? There is NO proof what so ever, he could be just as fake as these people.

[heavytom89]

@TheFireInHeaven base your life on things that can be proven don't believe everything you read or hear. People can say anything and people will belive them, get some evidence and then i will be more open minded but so far all i have seen are FAKE

love the music. very creepy lol

[BadPsychicsTV]

@SlowUrRoll212 Actually most of the world believes in a God of some sort! Humans in general need to believe in something. Atheists are probably the closest to the next evolution of human kind that do not need false beliefs to deal with day to day life.
