What is seance fiction?

One popular seance - related book is 'The Turn of the Screw' by Henry James. It has elements of seance fiction as it deals with the supernatural and the idea of hauntings which are often associated with seances in a way.

In a seance horror story, a young woman participated in a seance to reach her dead sister. At first, it seemed normal, but then she saw a vision of her sister's face contorted in pain. The room became freezing cold. Objects started flying around the room as if thrown by an angry spirit. She was so scared that she vowed never to take part in a seance again.

One seance ghost story is about the famous 'Amityville Horror'. Supposedly, during seances held in the house, people claimed to have contacted malevolent spirits. There were reports of strange noises, objects moving on their own, and apparitions. Another story involves a seance in an old Victorian mansion. The participants said they felt cold spots and heard disembodied voices. It was as if the ghosts of the former inhabitants were trying to communicate through the seance.

No. Many seance stories can be explained rationally. For example, people might be influenced by the atmosphere and their own beliefs, causing them to misinterpret normal events as supernatural. Wind can make things move, and our minds can create illusions in the dim light often used in seances.

One common element is the presence of a medium. They are the ones who supposedly connect with the spirits. Another is the use of candles that often flicker or go out unexpectedly. Strange noises like moaning or knocking are also common.

Some seance horror stories might be based on real experiences. People who have participated in seances and had strange or terrifying events occur could be sharing their true stories. However, it's also possible that some are just made - up for the sake of horror and entertainment.

Seance ghost stories are mostly fictional in nature. When people gather for a seance, the atmosphere is often filled with anticipation and a sense of the supernatural. This can lead to misinterpretations of normal events. For example, a creaking floorboard might be mistaken for a ghostly presence. Also, many seance stories have been passed down and embellished over time, losing any connection to possible real events and becoming pure fiction.

Sure. There was a seance where people were trying to contact a dead relative. As the medium started to go into a trance, the room got freezing cold suddenly. Then, strange noises like scratching on the walls could be heard. Everyone was terrified and the seance ended abruptly.

One real seance story is about a family who held a seance in their old farmhouse. They claimed to have contacted their deceased grandmother. The table started to move on its own, and they heard faint whispers. They believed it was her presence. However, it could also be explained by psychological factors like the power of suggestion among the family members.

In my opinion, the Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling could be part of this so - called 'best fiction fiction'. It has created a magical world that has captured the imaginations of millions around the world, with great character development and an epic battle between good and evil.
