John Murray Spear

Level 1 – Surface Web

John Murray Spear was a 19th-century spiritualist who claimed to have received divine instructions to create a “Mechanical Messiah,” a machine that would bring about a utopian society. Some conspiracy theorists believe that Spear’s invention was more than just a mechanical device and that it had the potential to tap into otherworldly powers. His failure and subsequent obscurity are attributed to a cover-up by religious or political authorities who feared the implications of his work.
