Professor Pepper’s Ghosts
May 4, 2009
Professor Pepper’s Ghosts, c. 1885.
From a page of old theatrical posters. A poster from the Egyptian Hall in London, home to regular performances by celebrated conjuror John Nevil Maskelyne, appears in the background of my Nyarlathotep picture.
For a contemporary explanation of Pepper’s Ghost, look here. Thanks to Thom for the tip!
