Oh my! The book Spirit-Rapping Unveiled (1855, see below for the long and potentially boring and extensive title1) in the midst of much dizzying introductions and elucidations, refutations and condemnation, praise and pain, is this almost one-of-a-kind map, showing the descent of the dead onto the Earth.

I say “almost” because there is also this highly unlikely image-though-not-map which I wrote about in a 2008 post with the hyperbolic title “Extra-Earth Humano-Alien Souls From Outer Space Repopulate Earth-Hell!!(??), in which the title accurately tells the contents of its text and the front cover depicts the descending alien dead: 
So there are at least two such map/images depicting Earth-bound dead descenders, and both are magnificent in their own _________ way.
The text of Spirit-Rapping explains the deathly cosmogram:
“In accordance with the theory already described and illustrated, it is assumed by our modern necromancers that the spirits of the dead descend to the earth or ” rudimental sphere” at pleasure, and thus communicate from time to time, and in various ways, with certain favored mortals called ” mediums.” At the same time they belong each to his own sphere, respectively, according to the time he has been ” progressing,” and his head is large or small according to the sphere to which he has attained. Indeed the earth, seen in the center of the cut, is a small affair compared with the heads of some of the sixth and seventh sphere progressives.” —from page 21
WHo would/could or want to say more?
