 Welcome back to Weird Books, the podcast that delves into the peculiar, the obscure, and the downright strange corners of literature. This is Episode 47, and today we're tackling a book that's perhaps less "weird" in its subject matter for its time, but certainly fascinating given its author: "The History of Spiritualism" by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Yes, the creator of the hyper-rational Sherlock Holmes was a fervent believer in communicating with the dead, and this two-volume work, published in 1926, is his comprehensive, impassioned account of the Spiritualist movement.Conan Doyle wasn't just a casual observer; he was a dedicated advocate, attending séances, investigating mediums, and compiling evidence he believed unequivocally proved the reality of life after death and communication with the spirit world. From the Fox sisters to Eusapia Palladino, Doyle covers the key figures, events, and scientific investigations (or what passed for them at the time) that shaped Spiritualism from its mid-19th century origins through the early 20th century.Why is this a weird book for us? Because it offers a unique lens into the beliefs of a brilliant mind grappling with grief and the mysteries beyond the veil. It’s a blend of historical record, personal conviction, and earnest, sometimes credulous, examination of phenomena that continue to spark debate. Join us as we explore Conan Doyle's deep dive into the world of spirits and question what drives us to seek answers in the unknown.
