Summary "True Tales of the Weird: A Record of Personal Experiences of the Supernatural" by Sidney Dickinson is a collection of supernatural accounts written in the early 20th century. This work explores various eerie and unexplained phenomena, including ghostly visitations and uncanny occurrences that challenge the boundaries of reality. The narratives, all purportedly true, aim to present the author's firsthand experiences with the supernatural, inviting readers to ponder the mysteries that lie beyond the ordinary world. The opening of the book provides an intriguing introduction to Dickinson's exploration of the supernatural. It begins with a brief preface highlighting Dickinson's credibility and the validation of his experiences by the American Society for Psychical Research. The author immediately captivates readers with a story recounting a transformative journey across continents, during which he collected flowers that later mysteriously appeared at his wife's bedside in Boston after he sent a letter detailing his adventures. This bizarre occurrence sets the stage for Dickinson's exploration of supernatural events that intertwine personal experience with the otherworldly, suggesting a depth and complexity that invites readers to consider the influences of the unseen on their reality.
