After-Death Communications

After-Death Communications is a book by L. M. Bazett, first published in 1920, that explores the phenomenon of after-death communications (ADCs) — usually described as automatic writings, dreams, visions, and signs received from those who have crossed over. Drawing on her personal experiences between 1916 and 1918 and a wider range of testimonies, Bazett presents a collection of what she terms “strictly accurate” spirit messages. Written with a researcher’s objectivity and a psychologist’s insight, the book delves into the spiritual and scientific dimensions of ADCs.

It aims to document and analyse these experiences — while acknowledging their profound emotional and healing effects on individuals coping with grief. As one of the early 20th-century works in spiritualist literature, it influenced later investigations into the survival of consciousness, offering a thoughtful, balanced account that straddles anecdotal evidence and analytical reflection.
