Australian Psychic Research Society

Record summary

Australian psychical-research groups operated during the interwar period, investigating mediums, apparitions, telepathy, and survival claims through lectures, sittings, and published reports. A researcher can use society records and contemporary newspapers to identify particular séances or controversies rather than relying on generic claims about Australian spiritualism. The material matters for comparing occult practice with emerging experimental standards. Exact organizational names, dates, and archives vary, so this lead should be narrowed through library catalogues and periodical indexes before treating any reported result as evidence.
