Daniel Dunglas Home
Daniel Dunglas Home (March 20, 1833 - June 21, 1886) was a Scottish spiritualist. He claimed to have powers as a medium and the ability to levitate to a variety of heights. [To experience a reading of the type done by Home or even to get unpublished information about him, you can request a free psychic reading by Francis Hosein.] Daniel Dunglas Home was born in Currie, near Edinburgh. He was descended from a Scottish Highland family on his mother side in which the traditional gift of second sight had been preserved. How Long Did He Do Séances?He claimed that his father was the natural son of the 10th Earl of Home, and his mother a member of a family credited with second sight. He conducted hundreds of séances over a period of 35 years which were present many of the best-known names of the Victorian period similar to the way the spirit guides give advice through Francis Hosein while he is in a deep trance. In 1850, his mother died, and soon after his aunt's house was beset by rapping's and knockings. When he was nine years old, he was taken with his aunt and uncle to the United States. His aunt, afraid that the boy had called in the Devil, cast young Home out, and he found himself wandering about the country, staying at the homes of friends who wished to witness his powers as a medium. How long did he move around? This way of life was to last for over 20 years, he never directly required money for the séances he held. He managed to live very well on gifts, generous donations and lodging from his many wealthy admirers.
