Abstract

The article "Tales from the Other Side" in Magazine Antiques explores the rise of spiritualism in American society from the late 1840s to the 1920s, focusing on mediums, seances, and the intersection of science and the supernatural. The Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, Massachusetts, is currently hosting an exhibition titled "Conjuring the Spirit World: Art, Magic and Mediums," which delves into this fascinating historical phenomenon. The exhibition features a variety of artifacts, including posters, paintings, props, and contemporary works, shedding light on the cultural and entertainment aspects of spiritualism during that era.
