The Aztec death whistle is one of the most enigmatic and haunting musical artifacts of the ancient world. It is a small, ceramic whistle shaped like a human skull or a decapitated head, with intricate carvings and details. When blown, it produces a sound that resembles the scream of a dying person, a howling wind, or a wailing animal.

The whistle was first discovered in the 20th century during archaeological excavations in Mexico, primarily within the sites associated with the Aztec civilization (1345-1521 CE). However, its origin, purpose, and use remain largely unknown and debated by scholars and enthusiasts.

The Scole afterlife study was a series of experiments conducted by a group of mediums and researchers in the 1990s, aiming to establish evidence for the existence of life after death. The experiments involved various forms of physical phenomena, such as lights, sounds, images, and objects appearing or moving in a sealed basement room. The study claimed to have received messages and images from deceased personalities, as well as information about the nature of the afterlife and the origin of the universe.

The study was led by Robin and Sandra Foy, who invited two mediums, Alan and Diana Bennett, to join them in their home in Scole, Norfolk, England. They formed the Scole Experimental Group, which later expanded to include other members and guests. The group conducted over 500 sessions in five years and invited several independent observers and investigators to witness and document the phenomena. Some of the observers included Montague Keen, Arthur Ellison, and David Fontana, who were members of the Society for Psychical Research (SPR), and Professor Archie Roy, a physicist, and astronomer from Glasgow University.
