The true history of the ghost

and all about metempsychosis

"Pepper's ghost" is an illusionary technique by which a mirror and a piece of glass are used to create the appearance of ghostlike figures or objects, which can seem, to the viewer, to appear and disappear, or to spontaneous change shape. This book contains a detailed explanation of the process of creating and carrying out this illusion.
