TV-Interview with Dr. Walter of Lucadou in German


23:59´ to 24:17´Minute
“I was there part of the time, for example as the stones flew through the air. One case, which I described in my book, was a man who had just finished making a soup and suddenly a stone flew over his back and dropped into the soup pot. No one else was in the kitchen.” (Quelle: ARD)

Chapter: Further records of scientifically interested participants

Page 129: “After the medium was in the state of trance, the first phenomenon clearly observed was the elevation and the floating around of a table bell, which stood on the ground. The medium was held by hands and feet during this phenomenon. Similar processes of movement phenomena were repeated several times – in a different form. The possibility of self-deception by means of autosuggestion, or by the suggestive effect of alien influences (comments of other persons), I consider to be excluded, since I had usually perceived the phenomena before a remark of another person was made.

In the second half of the session I saw in the immediate vicinity, under the same illumination, the lifting of a handkerchief lying on the floor, as well as the appearance of an arm-like, cloudy, translucent “object” evidently connected with the movements of the handkerchief. The sudden appearance, dissolution, change in shape, and movement of this “arm” was extremely striking – I cannot compare this phenomenon to any experienced since.

An explanation of the phenomena would probably be possible in a very different way – here I would like to mention only one: the suggestion of the phenomena by the medium – without words – similar to the experiments of the Indian Fakirs. Another explanation would be the expression of a force or energy in a new form, that is an energy transfer without changing the energy law of physics.

Chapter: Telekinesises and Apports
Page 28: “The levitation of the medium herself took place occasionally. I have seen it happen about 10-12 times, twice under the most rigorous conditions. The medium is in deep trance (she always falls into deep trance first) and then she gets up from the chair and stands at her place – her hands are still controlled. The medium begins to moan and gasp, as if she is being choked sounding like a woman in labor. Her feet leave the floor now, the chair is free and pushed backwards. Her hands are lifted off the table. After 2-3 minutes the medium fells slowly back and wakes up very gradually, feeling exhausted, the session must be cancelled. She suffers from a sleepless night and a headache. The next day as well as tightness and pain in all of her extremities. On some occasions other participants and/or myself had placed our hand under her feet; in one case they were about 30 cm above the ground.”

Chapter: Zöllner’s experiments with Slade

Page 85: “In the session of the following day – the morning of the 6th of May 11:15 a.m. In the bright sunshine I should get to witness, unexpectedly and unprepared, a much more fantastic appearance of this kind.

As usual I took a seat with Slade at the gaming table. Opposite me stood a small round table near the gaming table, as in other experiments had often been the case, exactly in the same position, as the experiments to be described below on Diagram V,   attempted to faithfully reproduce photographically. The round table is 77 centimetres high, the diameter of the table top is 46 centimetres, it is made of birch wood and weighs 4,5 kilograms.

Maybe one minute after Slade and I had sat down and had put our hands on top of each other, the round table started to sway slowly. We could both see this very clearly by watching the round table top peeking out from below the gaming table. I could not see its bottom part because the top of the gaming table was blocking it.

The movements soon got more and the whole table approached the gaming table. Then it lay itself under the gaming table – three feet pointing in my direction. Neither I – and by the looks of it – nor Mr. Slade knew how this phenomenon would develop, because for a period of one minute nothing happened.

Slade was about to make use of his board with slate writing to ask his “spirits” if we would be seeing more when I decided to investigate the position of the round table which, I presumed, was still under the gaming table. But to Slade’s and my great surprise the area under the gaming table was completely empty. We could not find the table in the whole room even though it had been perceptible to our senses just one minute ago. We seated ourselves again at the gaming table, expecting the round table to reappear. Slade sat closely at my side, at very table edge which was opposite to the one at which the round table had been standing nearby before. For about 5-6 minutes we sat full of anticipation that things would happen when suddenly Slade thought he was able to see light sparks in the air. Although I could not see anything, as usual, my eyes involuntarily followed the direction in which Slade inclined his head. All the time we kept our hands firmly on top of each other on the table top. Almost all the time, under the table, the left leg touched to its whole extent the right leg of Slade. This was due to the closeness of our seats at the same edge of the table. Slade looked in different directions in the air and asked me, more and more fearfully and astonished, if I could now notice the big light appearances.  While I emphatically denied his question, I tilted my head to the ceiling behind by back, always following Slade’s gaze. Suddenly I saw the vanished table floating with its legs in the air approx. 5 feet high and it glided down very quickly onto the top of the gaming table. Although we instinctively moved our heads sideways, Slade to the left and I to the right, so we wouldn’t get hurt by the falling table, we still got struck on the side of our heads rather violently before the round table laid down on the top of the gaming table. The impact was so strong that I could still feel the pain on the left side of my head for full four hours after this phenomenon, which took place at approx. 11:30.” Continue reading
