The Spectral Arctic
A History of Dreams and Ghosts in Polar Exploration
Shane McCorristine (Author)
Visitors to the Arctic enter places that have been traditionally imagined as otherworldly. This strangeness fascinated audiences in nineteenth-century Britain when the idea of the heroic explorer voyaging through unmapped zones reached its zenith. The Spectral Arctic re-thinks our understanding of Arctic exploration by paying attention to the importance of dreams and ghosts in the quest for the Northwest Passage.
The narratives of Arctic exploration that we are all familiar with today are just the tip of the iceberg: they disguise a great mass of mysterious and dimly lit stories beneath the surface. In contrast to oft-told tales of heroism and disaster, this book reveals the hidden stories of dreaming and haunted explorers, of frozen mummies, of rescue balloons, visits to Inuit shamans, and of the entranced female clairvoyants who travelled to the Arctic in search of John Franklin’s lost expedition. Through new readings of archival documents, exploration narratives, and fictional texts, these spectral stories reflect the complex ways that men and women actually thought about the far North in the past. This revisionist historical account allows us to make sense of current cultural and political concerns in the Canadian Arctic about the location of Franklin’s ships.

Visitors to the Arctic enter places that have been traditionally imagined as otherworldly. This strangeness fascinated audiences in nineteenth-century Britain when the idea of the heroic explorer voyaging through unmapped zones reached its zenith. The Spectral Arctic re-thinks our understanding of Arctic exploration by paying attention to the importance of dreams and ghosts in the quest for the Northwest Passage.
The narratives of Arctic exploration that we are all familiar with today are just the tip of the iceberg: they disguise a great mass of mysterious and dimly lit stories beneath the surface. In contrast to oft-told tales of heroism and disaster, this book reveals the hidden stories of dreaming and haunted explorers, of frozen mummies, of rescue balloons, visits to Inuit shamans, and of the entranced female clairvoyants who travelled to the Arctic in search of John Franklin’s lost expedition. Through new readings of archival documents, exploration narratives, and fictional texts, these spectral stories reflect the complex ways that men and women actually thought about the far North in the past. This revisionist historical account allows us to make sense of current cultural and political concerns in the Canadian Arctic about the location of Franklin’s ships.
‘[The Spectral Arctic] is a book I can only strongly recommend – a book that is both a fascinating and page-turning read, as well as a thorough scholarly engagement with historical, cultural, and political geographies. And, given its open access availability by UCL Press, I have no doubt it will reach a wide readership. Or, in my case, it will become a book I will return to again; this is a history that is still unfolding.’
ANTIPODE
‘McCorrestine’s is an impressive and often enjoyable study of the supernatural in 19th-century Britain and the Dominions; of Arctic exploration (with many pages on the neglected Inuit); and of mechanisms by which the penny press transmitted news of both to an attentive nation.’
Times Higher Education (THE)
‘McCorristine opens avenues of analysis relevant to our contemporary understanding of the Arctic and he ends with a call to reorientate the way we think about polar explorers, emphasizing the significance they hold for us today.’
Times Literary Supplement
‘A deeply interesting work on the psychology of adventurers, The Spectral Arctic is a sound addition to the canon of Arctic exploration literature.’
Foreword Reviews
‘This is a thought-provoking, inspiring book, important in its approach to the study of the supernatural, and timely in its challenge of polar exploration and cultural encounters in the Arctic.’
Reviews in History
‘There is so much… worth discussing in this book – from the power of dreams through to indigenous shamanism – but given it is available as a free PDF download, I simply recommend that you grab a copy and read through it yourself – it’s absolutely fascinating.’
Daily Grail
‘Shades of Freud, Benjamin and Derrida help shape Shane McCorristine’s overarching claim that no history of British modernity is complete without a comprehensive revelation of its spectral dimensions.’
Polar Research
‘There are many things to say about The Spectral Arctic. The most important message that I would like to convey to the readers of Polar Record is that this book is extremely relevant for different disciplines. It inspires self-reflection, opens up new views on Arctic exploration and makes the psychological effects for explorers and their peers ever more understandable. Needless to say that this book is a highly recommended read.’
The Polar Record
‘What distinguishes The Spectral Arctic is the unfolding of more esoteric, anthropological and psychological discourses within the factual accounts… A title for the psycho-geographer, historian and fortean alike as the ground covered is extensive. Academic but highly readable and entertaining, the text is supported by excellent notes, an extensive bibliography, illustrations and index.’
The Fortean Times
‘…Readers with a background in the field of history, geography or psychology can enjoy an in-depth examination of the far north, presented from an original perspective. It is highly recommended to any researcher interested in the captivating spectral geography of this place.’
The Polar Journal
‘The Spectral Arctic… privileges voices silenced by the standard narrative of polar exploration… and builds on a growing field of humanities research dedicated to histories of the uncanny and the unexplainable.’
Magic, Ritual, and Witchcraft
‘The Spectral Arctic closes with a deft and compelling reflection on the recent discoveries of the locations of the Franklin expedition’s two ships, lost for over 160 years; the finds have implications both for contemporary and historical Indigenous communities and for the Anglo-American Arctic imagination.’
Victorian Studies
‘… Open[s] up new ways of viewing how the search for the Northwest Passage and the loss of Franklin and his men had profound spiritual impacts on British society, and which goes into greater detail than most books of the ways that spiritualist fads during an era of rapid modernization affected the search for the missing ships.’
Anchorage Daily News
‘The failed Franklin expedition was a major event in the history of British polar exploration that still haunts the Canadian Arctic as the historian Shane McCorristine tells us in his well-written narrative…The book concludes with an interesting chapter on how archeological expeditions conducted by the Canadian governmental agency, Parks Canada, undertaken in the 2010s finally managed to find and claim the wrecks of Franklin’s expedition vessels, the Terror and the Erebus.’
