challenging
dark
mysterious
reflective
3.5
Review would be higher but ebook formatting was terrible and made it extremely difficult to read
the story of the fox sisters and the effect they left on america
starting in march of 1848, they have an supernatural experience leading them to believe they are able to communicate with spirits beyond us
they become prominent in the media by becoming famous mediums doing public exhibitions and celebrity seances
after the civil war, solider deaths are 1/4 people and the sisters are contacted by desperate families
the media starts to question whether they are fake feeding off the hurt people or if its the female stigma of living in a mans world (SHES A WITCH BURN HER)
