The text analyzes Serbian periodicals popularizing spiritualist ideas in the late 19th and early 20th-century. The first part gives an overview of prominent spiritualist journals in the US and the most important European cultures (English, French, Italian, Spanish and Russian), in order to move on to the description of relevant serials in our community (Dositiy, Two Worlds, Voice of Truth, Spiritual World, Spiritual Life). The final part of the paper analyzes the presence of spiritualistic themes in non-specialized periodicals (Belgrade Daily, Time, Evening Time).
