The
Ghost Club is the oldest organisation in the world associated with psychical
research. It was founded in 1862 but has its roots in Cambridge University where,
in 1855, fellows at Trinity College began to discuss ghosts and psychic
phenomena.
Past members include Charles Dickens, Siegfried Sassoon, Harry Price, Donald
Campbell, Peter Cushing, Peter Underwood, Maurice Grosse, Sir Shane Leslie and
Eric Maple.
Today the Ghost Club is a non-profit, social club run by an elected Council
of volunteers and its purpose remains true to its roots; the Ghost
Club offers open-minded, curious individuals the opportunity to debate,
explore and investigate unexplained phenomena with like-minded people and
record the results for posterity.
