Ectoplasm (paranormal)
In spiritualism, ectoplasm, also known as simply ecto, is a substance or spiritual energy "exteriorized" by physical mediums. It was coined in 1894 by psychical researcher Charles Richet. Although the term is widespread in popular culture, there is no scientific evidence that ectoplasm exists and many purported examples were exposed as hoaxes fashioned from cheesecloth, gauze or other natural substances. The term comes from the Ancient Greek words ἐκτός ''ektos'', "outside" and πλάσμα ''plasma'', "anything formed". Phenomenon In Spiritualism, ectoplasm is said to be formed by physical mediums when in a trance state.

Some accounts claim that ectoplasm begins clear and almost invisible, but darkens and becomes visible as the psychic ene ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
