P1 | How and Why NHI Communicator "Varenheeric" Shut Down The Scole Experiment

By Grant Solomon & Jane Solomon

Curator Post Reference: CP-00001

A Commanding NHI Communicator Called "Varrenheeric" Shut Down The Scole Experiment | Session 464

During Session 464, the Scole Experiment was abruptly shut down by an authoritative communicator presenting as a high-level non-human intelligence (NHI) and identifying as "Varrenheeric".

Varrenheeric was apparently giving the human participants—the four members of the Scole Experimental Group (the Group)—no choice in the matter.

The Scole "Vortex" Has "Attracted Experimenters from Your Future"

Jarhadwe. Jarhadwe Scole. This is Varrenheeric calling you. I hope you can hear me.

Your experimental work with your spirit team has created a vortex, or doorway. It is this vortex that has attracted experimenters from your future.

This means that every time your four spiritual energies are together, and you try to re-establish communication with your team, the future time experimenters try to make their own links with your time.

This interference cannot be allowed to continue.

We ask that you co-operate by not attempting to contact your spirit team.

We must tell you that all the work at Scole was very important.

The links that were made have already enabled interdimensional energies and wisdom to assist the changes to future earth consciousness.

Therefore, this final mission is to seal the doorway that has been created, and to end ALL communications - I repeat - to end ALL communications.

I would like to thank you for co-operating with us.

This is Varrenheeric and I must end this last communication with you now.

Jarhadwe. Vit dew tic. Tac tic tar jar.

Peace to you all, now and in your future.

Jarhadwe. Vit dew tic.

The Scole-Edison Trans-Dimensional Communication (TDC) Device | "Germanium Receptor"

Varrenheeric's audio communication was made possible by the Scole-Edison trans-dimensional communication (TDC) device, also known as the "Germanium Receptor" due to the crystalline semi-conductor material used in its construction.

This powerless device, incorporating a germanium crystal "cube" under screw-pressure and two tightly wound copper coils, had a connecting wire and jack to the microphone input socket of a battery-powered magnetic cassette tape player-recorder (tape machine) of the type commercially available in the 1990s.

The tape player-recorder "amplifier" and video camera

For the Project Alice experiments, the microphone on the tape machine had been removed so that it could not pick up ambient sound or conventional signals such as radio.

The machine functioned as an amplifier of sounds facilitated by the TDC device.

For this particular experimental session, the tape machine was also connected, via a second wire, to the external microphone input socket of a video camera.

The human engineers

The TDC device had been constructed by the Scole Group in association with two distinguished engineers, also Scole participants, Professor Emeritus Arthur Ellison of England and Dr. Walter Schnittger of Germany.

Professor Ellison later co-wrote The Scole Report, a scholarly, 300-page, peer-reviewed, refereed Proceedings of the SPR, and Dr. Schnittger participated in 30 Scole experiment sessions—assisting, observing, and recording.

Who Designed the Scole-Edison TDC Device?

The Group and engineers were guided to make changes to their construction and usage of the TDC device by a circuit diagram and explanatory text instructions.

How were the circuit diagram and text provided?

The diagram and instructions were "transmitted" onto a 35 mm Polaroid film roll.

This was still in its factory-sealed, light-proof container when it was placed, at the start of the session, on the central, circular table around which the experimenting group sat.

"Many minds" had worked together to direct their thoughts, with the stated intention of rearranging the atoms and molecules on the film to communicate a message.

Complex imagery was "received" on the film roll, this time in a "panoramic" format along the length of the film rather than in individual frames.

Did Thomas Alva Edison Sign and Send the T A E film?

The originating communicator of the diagram and instructions had also left a three-letter signature, "T A E", on the right-hand end of the image on the film.

This communicator self-identified as a deceased-human intelligence (DHI), formerly known when living as the prolific American inventor, Thomas Alva Edison.

Was the T A E film anomalous?

Photography means "drawing with light".

In traditional photography, chemical film "catches" photons bouncing off a subject.

Without photons hitting the film, the image stays completely dark in normal circumstances.

Since the experimental room was in complete darkness at the time of the "transmission", imagery of any kind on the film was considered to be anomalous phenomena by the Scole Group.

Did the living Edison have an interest in instrumental communication with the Afterlife?

It is a matter of historical record that Thomas Edison said he was building a device for communicating with the Afterlife when he was alive.

The American Magazine | October 1920

In an interview conducted by B.C. Forbes for the October 1920 issue of The American Magazine, Edison stated that he was working on an apparatus to test whether human personalities that have left Earth could communicate with the living using scientific instruments rather than human instruments or "mediums".

Scientific American | October 1920

Following intense media interest, Edison gave a follow-up interview to Scientific American later that month to clarify his hypothesis: he believed life consists of indestructible microscopic "units" that scatter after bodily death and might produce subtle physical vibrations detectable by delicate apparatus.

No known records of Edison's 1920s apparatus

There are no known plans, notes, or equipment relating to the apparatus the inventor said he was working on during his lifetime.

"The Realms Beyond"

However, when Edison’s memoirs were published in 1948, seventeen years after his death, they included a chapter titled "The Realms Beyond" in which he described his ideas on using technology to communicate with spirits.

Who Were the Scole "Communicator Team"? | Cooperating DHI and NHI

Five years and hundreds of experiments across six countries earlier, regular contact between the Group and their Communicator Team (the Team) had been established during the early sessions.

Deceased-human intelligences | DHI

The Team's representatives said the Team was made up of "many minds" who continued to exist in a variety of Afterlife environments and conditions following their physical deaths after a life, or in some cases "many lives", on Earth

Most of of the Team–"thousands" of them–remained in the background and did not communicate directly or identify themselves.

Whilst these communicators from the Afterlife have traditionally been referred to as "spirits", the Team said they wanted to move away from the old names towards words more suitable for the new "Spiritual Science" they were introducing at Scole (see below).

We therefore refer to this type of communicator in the Scole Archive–whether they lived on Earth a long time ago or more recently–as "deceased-human intelligences" or "DHI", to distinguish them from the other category of Team members.

Non-human intelligences | NHI

During later sessions, when conditions were right and both sides were "ready", the Group had been introduced to these other members of the Team.

They identified as non-human intelligences (NHI).

"Extraterrestrial" and "Interdimensional" NHI

Based on our understanding of the data thus far, some NHI could be defined as "extraterrestrial", whilst others might be described as "interdimensional".

Some NHI, whether presenting as extraterrestrial or interdimensional, had a physical body with what we humans would understand as limbs and sense organs when they physically joined the Group in the experimental room at Scole.

Others had an apparently simpler "container" for their consciousness, with one, "Sharness Darti", describing "himself" (they had "male and female for balance and harmony" in their "society") as a an empty cell, like a bubble within a structure that makes up a whole.

Is "Thought" a highly efficient means of communication between diverse intelligent beings?

The practical means of contact and communication between bodied and non-bodied entities across vast distances of space and time—and "dimensions"—raises questions about means, methods, and procedures.

"Thought" may be the most efficient and fastest means of contact and communication between diverse intelligent, conscious beings in these many environments of existence since thoughts can instantly travel to and "be" anywhere and anytime in a single universe or multiple universes.

Did "Telepathy" play a part in the Scole Experiment?

Telepathy and the general relevance of minds, thoughts, and dreams are common themes in the Scole Archive data for both DHI and NHI communicators.

There has been considerable data on telepathy collected by human researchers and we will be referring to this in more detail as the archive expands.

Project Alice "Video Camera and Mirror" Experiments | A "Modern Psychomanteum"?

The Scole Group had for some time been coordinating with the Team on a "modern psychomanteum".

A psychomanteum is a mirror-gazing method originally used by ancient Greeks to contact the dead.

Psi Encyclopaedia confirms that shamanic mirror-gazing traditions are found as far apart as Siberia, Madagascar, North America, and areas of Africa.

The version proposed by the Team to the Group at Scole incorporated either one or two angled mirrors and a video camera on a tripod intended to be an artificial eye for the mirror-gazing function.

The Group were also asked by the Team to spend varying amounts of time at the beginning of the Project Alice sessions sitting in front of the mirror and gazing into it in a state of meditation, prior to the video camera taking over the mirror-gazing function,

A New "Spiritual Science" and a New "Creative Energy" to Power It

The Team had, during the early sessions, explained to the Scole Group that a new form of "creative energy" was being employed at Scole to facilitate and "power" experiments in "Spiritual Science".

Spiritual Science was explained to the Group as "the science of Life and the Afterlife", the methods and results of which could help humanity considerably if learned and correctly employed.

The right conditions had to be created during Scole experimental sessions for the contact, communication, and related anomalous phenomena facilitated by the methods of spiritual science to work.

Sound vibrations

"Helpful" sound vibrations were provided by Albinoni's Adagio in G Minor, a tune referred to by the Team as "spiritually inspired".

Classical elements

Cardinally aligned crystals, ambient air, a single lighted candle, and water in a bowl created the "four classical elements" (earth, air, fire, and water), which the Team said helped facilitate contact and communication with "far distant dimensions".

How did Varenheeric communicate?

During Session 464, when the Scole-Edison TDC device was connected by a wire to the microphone-less tape machine acting as an amplifier, and the machine was in turn connected to the video camera, this setup enabled Varrenheeric to transmit messages that synchronised his lip movements on the video tape with the words he was saying on the audio tape .

What Was the Interference by "Experimenters from Your Future"?

Varrenheeric had previously explained that the vortex, portal, or unique interdimensional doorway created by the Scole experiment sessions had attracted "experimenters from your future who are exploring time".

A "crystalline time probe"

The interference was identified as an interdimensional time-wave pattern generated by a "crystalline time probe".

These were "early" experiments in time by "genetically modified" humans in the future of "your timeline".

Through perfectly synchronised audio and video, Varrenheeric said the future experimenters were using the Scole vortex to try and make their own links.

The Scole portal has been opened too wide

This situation could not be allowed to continue as it was too far ahead in time.

The original intention had been to open the portal a few years ahead of the 1990s.

The portal had unintentionally been opened far beyond that.

All parties to Scole were experimenting, not just the humans

This illustrates the Team's often-made point that The Scole Experiment was experimental for all parties: human, deceased human, and non-human.

As such, all parties were learning and all experiments were subject to the usual trial and error which accompanies experimentation everywhere.

Miscalculations and other mistakes had been made, and the Scole Experiment sessions therefore had to end to avoid further consequences.

When Did The Scole Experiment End?

The Scole Group had to make the ultimate sacrifice when complying with Varrenheeric's instruction to seal the doorway he called a "vortex".

After five years and 464 sessions, with that final "Jarhadwe" sign-off, The Scole Experiment was at an end.

The date was 6 November 1998.

The four members of the Scole Group were devastated to lose contact with the Communicator Team who had become "like family" to them.

We Invite You to Join Us on Our Journey Exploring the Scole Archive Data

Our aim in collecting and sharing the Scole Archive is to show and tell the story of the Scole Experiment from Session 1 on 4 October 1993 to Session 464 in 1998, by publishing as much of the data as possible.

A data-driven approach

Our approach is data-driven.

We try not to dismiss anything so that we are less likely to miss anything.

We are discovering new things all the time and are open to changing our minds.

Sharing "Introductory", "Guided", and "Raw" data formats

By curating and universally sharing all the archive data in three formats (introductory, guided, and raw), our aim is that others will have an opportunity to study all the data for themselves and form their own opinions.

As new data is revealed, in accordance with the requirements of the scientific method, if we do express an opinion on it, we are fully prepared to be wrong today and righter tomorrow.

We accept that interpretations of, and opinions on, the data may vary

We accept that others may have different interpretations and opinions about the implications of the data.

Scole Curator Rules of Engagement

However, our specific requirement for engagement with us is that all interpretations, opinions, and comments are informed by a close study of the Scole Archive data.

See our "Scole Curator Rules of Engagement" page (linked in the "Cross-References & Links" section below) for more detail.

Please accept our invitation to join us on the journey

This first Curator Post serves as an invitation to everyone to join us on our journey of exploration into the Scole Archive.

We look forward to sharing the data with you.

ScoleTV

Our ScoleTV channel will be a major platform for sharing the Scole Archive data with as wide an audience as possible.

We are currently preparing and organising the content for long form and short form videos.

We will provide updates here and elsewhere when we're ready to launch ScoleTV.

Support Scole Archive

Curating and freely sharing a massive digital archive is not actually free.

Since 1998, we have given our unconditional support to this project. 

However, an estimated ten-fold increase in archival data between 2023 and 2025 means we now regularly dedicate 80 hours a week between us to digitising, indexing, and formatting these records.

In 2026 alone, we have invested over £5,000 from our personal savings to upgrade our computer systems to process this content, alongside further significant expenses for ScoleTV videography equipment, hosting, digital subscriptions, audio-cleaning, travel, and other costs.

We do not wish to rely on conditional funding from institutional or private donors.

We believe the data from The Scole Experiment is too important for outside influence or paywalls, and that it must remain freely accessible for future generations.

If you value this archive and our commitment to open access, and would like to help sustain this work without strings attached, any contribution you can make will be gratefully received and deeply appreciated.

DIARY TEXT:

Session 250.

Saturday 9th November 1996.

This Saturday, Monty Keen, Arthur Ellison, and David Fontana arrived at Scole for their scheduled experimental session. Arthur had brought some germanium with him and was thanked by Manu for bringing it. The new lockable wooden box we had had made was used at this session for the very first time. Before sitting, Monty chose a Polaroid 35 mm colour film at random from the two we had left. He took it out of the shop-sealed outer box (which also contained a cassette of chemicals for developing it) still in its lightproof plastic tub and quickly placed it in the new wooden box, which he then locked with a new padlock he had bought. Monty also brought a Kodachrome 35 mm slide film with him, leaving it in its shop-sealed cardboard box and plastic tub. This was put downstairs in the cellar for the spirit team to evaluate. The sealed wooden box containing the Polaroid film was placed on the central table during the session.

A "new" communicator (whom we assumed at the time to be a spirit scientist, though it was later revealed he was channeling the communications of the actual scientists in the Spirit Team) spoke to Arthur and asked for the germanium to be placed between two screws to create some specialist equipment for - he explained - a brand-new type of voice communication. It was explained that we would also need an amplifier, providing us with some equipment similar to a "cat’s whisker" radio. [Later, during Session 252, the Scole Group would agree to call him by a pseudonym, "Edwin"]. 

This session with the scientists was not short of phenomena. There were lights in the second dome and several attempts at showing spirit faces to our visitors. The figures who tried to show their faces also attempted to speak to us in their own energy voices. There were several shafts of light which occurred spontaneously, illuminating areas of floor around the feet of sitters, as well as a small light source of greenish-yellow, which appeared at the top of the central dome before beaming down on to the bottom of the dome. There were a number of "hooded" spirit lights which everybody witnessed and, once again, some two-foot-tall angelic beings that built up in the centre of the room then floated around the group and allowed Sandra and me - together with the scientists - to feel the material of their robes over our hands.

The Pyrex bowl was moved. At first it was turned upside down and was then illuminated by a bright spirit light from within. Everybody saw a number of quite different animated spirit hands in the light from the upturned bowl. It was not just a case of seeing the hands, because everyone also felt spirit hands touching them. Each time one of the visiting SPR scientists requested it, a spirit hand touched him again - immediately and unerringly in the darkness! The Pyrex bowl was finally turned the right way up once more, with the amazing crystal experiment of two days previously being repeated. Just as we thought it might do, this evidential experiment impressed all three of the scientists greatly and provided a lasting memory in each and every one of them of their sessions with the Scole Group.

For extra security, Arthur Ellison thrust his chin almost into the bowl as all three scientists viewed the illuminated large crystal point in the bowl and then picked it up one by one. The crystal remained clearly visible throughout the experiment. Then, moments later, the scientists were invited to pick the crystal up again. One by one, they tried - and failed - as their hands went straight through the visible crystal. Shortly afterwards, the spirit team asked the scientists once again to pick up the crystal, which we could all quite clearly still see. This time, it was once again solid! Nobody could possibly explain such an impressive experiment away, and all felt it to be 100% genuine.

The Kodachrome film was removed by the spirit team from its cardboard box and handed briefly to Sandra (still in its lightproof plastic pot), before being taken back by a spirit person and handed to David Fontana. As he had previously requested, Monty Keen was given a "book test" by Emily B. She spoke of Myers’ Human Personality book - Volume 1 - and mentioned page 250 (or 252), she was not quite sure. Nevertheless, she said that some French wording would be found on the relevant page, and this information later proved to be 100% correct, just as we expected it would be! Mrs B [Emily] had never let us down before!

David Fontana was asked to take the locked wooden box containing the 35 mm Polaroid film away with him (still locked) and retain the key. He was requested to bring the box back to Scole again for his (and Ingrid Slack's) sitting with us on the following Monday [Session 251], as the spirit team hoped to produce something for him on this film.

The new communicator [Edwin] mentioned Edinburgh University (which he was apparently not supposed to do), and then spoke to Professor Arthur Ellison in "electric speak". This involved technical electrical jargon about "envelopes" and "grids" that Arthur understood well, although the rest of us there hadn’t a clue what it was all about. This electric speak was a follow-on to his previous comments regarding a new piece of germanium-based equipment, that he wanted Arthur to build so that the spirit team could perfect a new form of direct communication. He spoke of the "piezo effect" on a germanium crystal.

At the end of the session, it was discovered that the new, locked wooden film box was sitting in front of me on the table, with the new type of film (35 mm Kodachrome) - now back in its cardboard carton and still in its plastic lightproof tub - sitting on top of it. David Fontana took the locked box (still containing the film originally locked into it) away with him as the spirit team had requested.

DIARY TEXT:

Session 218.

Saturday 13th July 1996.

This was another sitting with the scientists. This time, David Fontana was not able to be present so our visitors were just Monty Keen, Professor Arthur Ellison, and Professor Archie Roy. Archie Roy had travelled down from Scotland for this specific sitting. My diary reminds me that it was, nevertheless, quite an excellent session, full of good results, and that it went on for two hours twenty-five minutes.

Monty brought with him a number of Polaroid 35 mm Polachrome colour films, still in their unopened parcel from the supplier. Professor Roy chose to open the parcel under test conditions. He then selected one of these films at random, took out the light-proof plastic pot containing the film and stuck a luminous tab on it. This he kept in his personal possession until he placed it on the central table in the cellar at the North point, as we had been instructed. Arthur Ellison then put luminous tabs on three empty film pots and placed those at the South, East, and West points of the table. The central bowl on the table was empty and the four crystals were aligned with the cardinal points of the compass. The Scole Group fixed their luminous armbands with Velcro fastening.

Manu opened, welcoming Archie Roy to his first Scole session. The sitting got off to a quiet start whilst the energy built up. Spirit communications, through the two mediums’ trance state, came mainly from Mrs Bradshaw and the new spirit scientist, who told us (in response to a question from Monty), that - in fact - his true identity may never be known to us, as he was not permitted to tell us what it was. He explained that he was considered to be controversial in his methods, but that he usually got the desired results through using these methods. We could if we wished - he told us - refer to him as "Albert" - or "Al" - for convenience sake.

This communicator proved to be extremely knowledgeable; even carrying out a lengthy technical conversation with Archie Roy on the subject of astronomy and speaking of a particular experiment (well known to Archie but not to us) that was underway at that time, and which was still considered to be very confidential. We all just sat and listened to the animated two-way conversation, totally ignorant of everything that was being spoken about.

Joseph popped in a little later just to say, "Hello", but - unusually for him - he had little to say on this occasion. Gradually, the spirit lights built up in frequency and intensity. These performed excellent circles and ellipses of light, indulging in all sorts of aerobatics. One or more spirit lights touched all the conscious sitters and visitors at various times during the session. As was now the norm, the spirit light performed its "party piece" when it went into my body. Archie Roy was asked if he would like to experience that too and, upon his assenting, the light went into him as well.

The light demonstrated its ability to pass through the table, plus table and bowl, in both the silent mode, and with a loud rap when hitting the table or bowl as it passed through them. I was touched several times by what felt like energy structures - on my right arm, left arm, plus right hand and knuckles. Mrs Bradshaw told me that a spirit person was standing very close to me, and this was confirmed when my chair was bumped and moved slightly a few times. Significantly, we did not experience any energy voices at this session. We speculated about that later and wondered if their production had been prevented because the glass dome had been removed from the table. Perhaps it may also have been due to the fact that the available energies were required for other phenomena on this occasion.

All of the other sitters (including me), were also touched several times by lights and by energy structures. Sandra was touched by a materialised spirit person and the back of her chair was whacked a few times to prove that teleported spirit entities were still present. At different times in the sitting, it was noticed that the position of the film pots moved around, and sounds were heard coming from the bowl or from the table. As requested by the spirit team at the previous session - with the exception of Monty’s colour film - we did not touch anything for just over an hour after we closed the session.

When the film was developed jointly by ourselves and by the scientists, we discovered that it contained a Latin phrase, written along the whole length of the film. Subsequently we learned that this was a quotation from Homer. When the full hour had elapsed, we examined the apports in detail. The bowl contained a small piece of paper, in which were wrapped three small mollusc shells, looking rather like the real-life version of tiny ammonites (not fossilised). There was also a small amount of what looked like a brownish/grey ash. The edges of the paper were uneven (almost like an old-fashioned paper’s deckle edge). Several parts of the paper, including the edges, were singed or burnt. In addition, the paper had some pencilled writing on it - which included symbols, a possible signature, and a date: 1881.

The three plastic 35 mm (previously empty) film container pots had fascinating apports in them. The container situated at the south point of the table was about one third full of a clear water-like liquid (this was yet another first-time physical phenomenon we had experienced - the apportation of a liquid). To the east, there was a greyish ash-like substance in the container, whilst the film pot at the west point was seen to contain a greenish-blue crystalline substance. We had been asked by the spirit team to ensure that these apported objects and substances did not leave the Scole premises so, regrettably, we could not furnish the scientists with samples.

DIARY TEXT:

Session 138.

Monday 21st August 1995.

This session took place on Sandra's birthday; we were back to just the usual six group members at our sitting. After Manu had said a few words, Sandra received an apport for her birthday. This was in the form of a tiny crystal ball of rose quartz (about the size of a marble) and she was told that this would help her if she held it whilst meditating.

The spirit lights we witnessed at this sitting were stunning to see as they flew around the room; they created the effect of Catherine wheels and ellipses in mid-air by their movement. It was almost like attending a pyrotechnic display! The lights also fell through the central table and - in a new development - they also passed several times through Sandra's body and hand! The rest of us were touched by the lights too, as well as by the teleported spirit people who were present at our session. At one stage it seemed as though Sandra was going to be given a haircut. She was patted several times on the head as if her hair was being attended to, and we could all clearly hear the sound of a pair of scissors opening and shutting in the air close to her, and the sound of a comb being drawn along a chair back. It is interesting to note, however, that there were no real scissors and no real comb in the room at all, either before or after the sitting!

Patrick and Mrs Bradshaw were "in situ" through their respective mediums for most of the session. We were given the go-ahead for the PRISM and SPR members - Monty Keen, Professor Arthur Ellison, and Ralph Noyes - to join us for an experimental session on Monday 2 October 1995. William and Joseph - the two scientific members of our spirit team - also spoke to us on this occasion, with a special request for us to build a couple of new pieces of apparatus for use in future experiments, so that they could demonstrate some different aspects of the spirit lights. The first of these was to be a glass or Perspex tube, about six to eight inches in diameter and about twelve to fourteen inches long. We were asked to mount this lengthways on a wooden plinth. The actual experiment which the team had in mind regarding this apparatus just involved a spirit light entering the tube at one end, and then visibly changing in the middle of the tube (due to a different atmosphere) before exiting the tube at the other end.

Secondly, we were asked to provide an oblong box of glass or clear plastic (some eighteen inches long) with square ends between six and ten inches. The box, when made, should be closed along three sides but open along the fourth side. The open side was to be placed face down on a wooden base or on the table. As requested, we did provide both these pieces of equipment (expertly made by Ken) at a later date, with the glass box being affectionally known as our "fish tank".

Finally, at this session, the central table moved bodily away from its original position by a few feet and we were addressed briefly by a number of energy voice communicators. This time, they were "John", "Edward", and another person who spoke very well at his first attempt, introducing himself as "Lawrence". This last spirit visitor was by far the most proficient of all the energy voice speakers so far to converse with us in this way and he was eventually to become the one main regular demonstrator of the energy voice phenomena. We discovered later that "Lawrence" was actually his surname and that his Christian name was "Reg". In his lifetime he had been an engineer. Just before the session ended, Mrs Bradshaw asked us to provide a Ping-Pong ball at our next sitting, when we were again expecting guests.
