Frank Podmore

Frank Podmore () adalah seorang pengarang Inggris dan anggota pendiri Fabian Society. Ia dikenal sebagai anggota berpengaruh dari Society for Psychical Research dan tulisan-tulisan skeptisnya terhadap spiritualisme.Hazelgrove, Jenny (2000). Spiritualism and British Society Between the Wars. Manchester University Press. p. 3.   "He developed a deeply sceptical attitude towards spiritualist phenomena. His strict criteria for proof soon became legendary at the SPR, and he was known as the Society's 'sceptic in chief' – an epithet not always applied in good humour. The title was well earned, for in his history of mediumship, The New Spiritualism (1910), not one medium passed his exacting tests, and most were dismissed as charlatans."
