"There is No Death" by Florence Marryat is a deep exploration into Spiritualism and the idea of life after death, shared through the author's own observations and supernatural experiences. Marryat aims to present valid stories of communication with spirits, basing her writing on the remarkable events she has personally witnessed. Opening with her intention to document her experiences with the supernatural, she emphasizes her family's background with ghostly events. The narrative shares her father's convictions regarding spirits, and the author's own unexplainable experiences, like seeing ghosts, and sensing the deaths of others. She recounts stories such as her father's experience seeing his dead brother before news of his death arrived, establishing the groundwork for her study of Spiritualism and encouraging readers to consider existence beyond the tangible.
