The season for spooky mysteries is upon us, and while many of you may know more famous ghosts like Casper or Bloody Mary, there’s another lesser-known apparition that was found with the use of radio waves. In 1982, research engineer, George W. Meek of the METAscience Foundation invented a device called the Spiricom. It was with this device that he claimed he had many hours of two-way conversation with an American Scientist named George Jeffries Mueller who had died 14 years earlier from a heart attack. Do you think this was real or a hoax? Proceed if you dare to find out more…
About George W. Meek
Meek was a retired business man who was made wealthy by a number of patented air conditioning systems and parts. He had always been fascinated by what life after death would look like, and became obsessed after attending a séance. At the séance, he claims to have made contact with the ghost of a scientist who gave him the idea for how to construct the Spiricom in order to allow two-way conversation with the deceased via radio waves. The ghost Meek claims to have made contact with was American scientist George Jeffries Mueller.
The Myth of the Spiricom
It became Meek’s mission afterward to create the Spiricom and find a way to satiate his curiosity about life after death. Meek became a pioneer in the field of paranormal communication after his invention of the Spiricom device, which consisted of a high frequency RF generator, a foot-long antenna, a demodulator, a preamplifier, a microphone, and a tape recorder.
Besides the physical components of the device, perhaps the most important piece was the bioplasmic. A bioplasmic is the input of high energy from an operator who was considered to have a propensity for detecting or attracting electromagnetic energy outside of our present knowledge. Or, in other words, a medium that can detect the presence of a paranormal being. To obtain this part of the equation, Meek partnered with William (Bill) O’Neil, an electronics engineer and self-professed medium, to provide the bioplasmic energy needed to complete the system of the Spiricom.
The device went through several iterations, undergoing upgrades the two claimed were suggested to them by the ghosts they contacted, who were always scientists or engineers including Dr. William Frances Gray Swann, who had died in 1962. It was also noted that the most common contact they were able to connect with was Mueller on several occasions. While the recordings on the device were too poor to relay the conversation with much clarity, there isn’t any significant proof to argue either way.
What do you think happened all those years ago with the Spiricom and two men of science who wished to learn more about what lies beyond our world?
