The Mediumship of Ethel Post-Parrish
 
 

Ethel Post-Parrish became a prominent American physical medium. Her phases of direct voice and materialization attracted world-wide attention. She was also a splendid clairvoyant and an outstanding platform message bearer.

In 1927 Ethel Post-Parrish opened a church and established a school for the education of Spiritualist ministers and the development of mediums in Miami, Florida. To escape the intense heat and humidity of Florida’s summers, in 1932, she opened a summer camp and school for mediumship in Ephrata, Pennsylvania. This is called Camp Silver Belle so named for Mrs. Parrish's Indian guide Silver Belle.

 

While she submitted to many tests in order to prove the truth of her splendid manifestations of physical mediumship, her real desire was to bring comfort and happiness to humanity, through her wonderful gift.

Silver Belle Materialization Séance

Epharata, Pennsylvania

1953

 
 

Ethel Post-Parrish, Medium

Jack Edwards, Infra-Red Photographer

 
     
  These pictures were taken in 50 second intervals, using infra-red film. Eighty-one people witnessed this seance, and some of them even walked arm in arm with Silver Belle, the materialized Spirit.  
     
   
 
1.  The white, smoky ectoplasm is being drawn from medium, sitting inside of the cabinet (the curtained enclosure).
 
     
   
 
2. The ectoplasm coming from the medium’s body forms a “Pillar of Cloud” from the ground upwards.
 
     
   
 
3.  This type of phenomena is how Moses spoke to God face to face in Exodus 33:7-11.
 
     
   
 
4.  Slowly Silver Belle sculpts her features into the column of ectoplasm.
 
     
   
 
5. More of Silver Belle’s features form in the column of ectoplasm.
 
     
   
 
6.  The fully formed Silver Belle is now able to speak with the people attending the séance.
 
     
   
 
7.  Unfortunately, Mr. Edwards had to change film between pictures 6 & 7. At this point, Silver Belle blesses the people. Her ectoplasmic form is breaking up. The ectoplasm will retract back into the medium’s body, however, not all of it will return; leaving the medium very exhausted. This is why Joshua did not leave the tent in Exodus 33:11. Joshua was the medium for Jehovah to materialize and “speak with Moses face to face.”
