Originally published in 1865 as Spectropia, this curious Victorian book invited readers to summon "ghosts everywhere, and of any colour" using nothing but paper, light, and the mechanics of the human eye. Author J. H. Brown hoped his illusions would dispel superstition, showing that ghosts were tricks of perception rather than spirits of the dead.
In this restored edition-How to See Ghosts Everywhere-the original illustrations have been reproduced in full color, alongside Brown's instructions for creating spectral afterimages. With a foreword by Michelle Newman, creator of the podcast Tell Me a Ghost Story, this edition re-frames Brown's skeptical science as both a parlor amusement and a celebration of the imagination.
Equal parts science, spectacle, and supernatural play, How to See Ghosts Everywhere is a perfect companion for lovers of the occult, curious historians, and anyone drawn to the blurred boundary between reason and belief.
