Spectralites: New Web Series Explores the Roots of Spiritualism

/in /by

New occult web series from photographer Rik Garrett explores the beginnings of spiritualism with the story of the Fox Sisters.

Photographer Rik Garrett is exploring the “historical exchange between art, science and the occult” in his new web series Spectralites. Episode zero begins fittingly with the story of the Fox Sisters, Leah and Margaret, whose supposed ability to communicate with the dead kicked off the spiritualism movement in the 1800s.
