THOMAS EDISON, DEVIL WORSHIPPER

This conspiracy theory is articulated in a blog curated by Trevor Alden. This blog advances the unsubstantiated theory that Thomas Edison trafficked with demons through his phonograph invention. While it is true that Edison was a member of the occult-inclined Theosophical Society, there is no evidence that he had any interest in demon conjuring or worship. The cases of Edison-inspired possession listed here cannot be corroborated.
