The Scole Experiment and Project Alice

The Scole Experiment, conducted in Norfolk, England during the 1990s, is detailed as a landmark case in physical mediumship. Led by Robin Foy, the group claimed to receive technical blueprints from the spirit of Thomas Edison to build a "spirit telephone." Using a "double psychomantium" device involving mirrors, they produced "Project Alice" videos showing interdimensional landscapes and beings. The experiment resulted in anomalous images on unexposed Kodachrome film and floating lights that baffled parapsychological investigators.
