"Strange Visitors" by Henry J. Horn is a compilation of writings from the Spiritualist movement, featuring unique papers that claim to be authored by the spirits of famous deceased writers and thinkers like Washington Irving and Charlotte Brontë, who spoke through a clairvoyant in a trance. Covering a wide range of subjects from philosophy and science to religion and the arts, these writings seek to explore profound questions about life, death, and the spiritual world, beginning with an introduction by the editor that sets the stage for these spiritual communications and inviting readers to ponder life's biggest mysteries alongside voices from beyond the grave.
