Adventurings in the Psychical is a book by H. Addington Bruce, first published in 1914. Bruce was a prominent American journalist and psychical researcher known for his skeptical yet open-minded approach to the study of paranormal phenomena. In this work, he explores various accounts of psychical experiences, including séances, telepathy, apparitions, and other phenomena that challenged the scientific understanding of his time. The book provides a critical but fair examination of psychic research during the early 20th century, reflecting both the curiosity and the controversies surrounding spiritualism and psychical studies. Bruce's writings helped shape public discourse on the paranormal by emphasizing careful investigation over gullibility, which made his work influential among both believers and skeptics. This book is an important historical document for those interested in the roots of modern parapsychology and the cultural fascination with the supernatural during the Edwardian era.
