Proof From The Beyond? Did Raymond Lodge Communicate with His Family From Beyond The Grave?

Sir Oliver Lodge, Raymond’s father and one of Britain’s most prominent scientists, claimed that his son was regular communication with him from beyond the grave. Did Raymond communicate with his family from beyond the grave? Although the spirits Raymond did seem to have intimate knowledge of parts of his life, he was surprisingly vague about many important details. And skeptics point out that the incident of the photograph may have been no more than the result of a couple of lucky guesses on the part of the medium.

From The Grave: A week after Raymond Lodge died in 1915; his spirit allegedly began to communicate with his family. On one occasion, the spirit was able to tell his mother of existence of a photograph (above) that was unknown to her. (Raymond is in the front row, second from right.) Raymond also pointed out an error on his memorial plaque (right): he had died on a Tuesday, not a Wednesday.

Raymond Lodge became more famous after his death than he had ever been in life. In a best-selling book published in 1916, Sir Oliver Lodge, Raymond’s father and one of Britain’s most prominent scientists, claimed that his son was regular communication with him from beyond the grave.

Raymond Lodge was Sir Oliver’s youngest son. He enlisted in the British Army in September 1914, soon after the outbreak of World War I, A little more than a year later; the 25-year-old officer was dead, killed by a shell fragment in the front line trenches in Belgium.

Yet within days Raymond, who had been close to his family and sent home many letters from the front, was apparently in touch with his grief stricken parents. But this time his communications were through mediums: men and women who profess to be able to communicate with the dead.

    An interesting article. I suppose it could be possible to receive messages fom the grave. It probably depends on how receptive a person is. Good work.

    Fascinating article and pictures. As for myself, i don’t think those who have passed on can communicate from the grave. Well done friend.

    Very interesting subject and we can never be sure although I have no faith in mediums. the one thing that makes me wonder is about wearing clothess and living in a brick house. I think spirits would have no need for such frills.

    Wow, Mr Ghaz! I clicked three articles in the “Popular Articles” list of Socyberty because they seemed to be very interesting… and guess what? You wrote them all three!

    And even better news: they not only “seemed” interesting, they also were “a good read”!

    This is one of them!

    Your meticulous attention to detail in article research is inspiring. In fact it leaves me somewhat breathless because I know what it takes to produce this type of article.
