  • Katie King was the name given by Spiritualists in the 1870s to what they believed to be a materialized spirit. The question of whether the spirit was real or a fraud was a notable public controversy of the mid-1870s. The spirit was said to have appeared first between 1871 and 1874 in séances conducted by Florence Cook in London, and later in 1874–1875 in New York in séances held by the mediums and her husband . Katie King was believed by Spiritualists to be the daughter of John King, a spirit control of the 1850s through the 1870s that appeared in many séances involving materialized spirits. A spirit control is a powerful and communicative spirit that organizes the appearance of other spirits at a séance. John King claimed to be the spirit of Henry Morgan, the buccaneer (Doyle 1926: volume 1, 241, 277). (en)
  • Katie King es el nombre dado por la espiritista Florence Cook a una supuesta materialización de un ectoplasma que en sus apariciones tomaba forma humana. Entre 1871 y 1874 William Crookes estudió una curiosa materialización que decía llamarse Katie King, que surgía a instancias de una médium de corta edad llamada Florence Cook. Durante 3 años se llevaron a cabo sesiones de materialización, en condiciones de laboratorio. Según afirmaba este espíritu era hija de John King, otro espíritu que presidía muchas sesiones por aquellos días. En un principio el espíritu de Katie King se materializaba parcialmente, pero con el tiempo fueron tomando consistencia y haciéndose más reales, hasta que llegó un momento en el que se materializó por completo tomando aspecto de persona viva con blancos ropajes. La aparición andaba y hablaba con libertad, incluso William Crookes pudo fotografiarla en diferentes ocasiones, consiguiendo 44 fotografías. Un día Katie se despidió, había cumplido su misión de demostrar a todos la existencia del mundo espiritual y había llegado el momento de elevarse a un grado más superior. En la actualidad muchos investigadores piensan que Katie King no era más que una burda farsa, ya que tanto Katie como Florence eran muy parecidas, y no hay fotos fiables de ambas juntas.Finalmente una investigación más a fondo reveló que la figura de Katy King, no era más que una persona contratada para la gira, que tenían programada alrededor del mundo, esta fue cancelada y la falsa médium detenida.
