Spiritualists

In this week's Flightless Bird, David Farrier sets out to the “psychic capital of America”, Cassadaga. On the way he comes across his first Big Tent Revival, so stops to find out what’s going on. Eventually winding his way to Cassadaga, Farrier encounters a group of Americans who not only believe in life on the other side of death, but the fact that you can communicate with those who have crossed over. David discovers Spiritualism, a religion that once boasted 8 million followers in America - amongst them, a former president! David visits a seance room, and comes face to face with a lot of cats - because this sleepy village has also become the unofficial home of hundreds of stray felines.
