SPIRITUALISM IN THE FOURTH CORNER
Summary
In this episode we explore Spiritualism and how it manifested in the Fourth Corner of the U.S.A. Spiritualism took the country by storm in the 1840s after three teenage girls in New York claimed to have communicated with a ghost. This strange incident started an entire religious movement and popular pastime, that spread right along with westward expansion. From “Psychic Temples” to vaudeville stages, find out where, how and why we were communicating with the spirits right here in Bellingham and beyond.
