Roma Lister, c. 1918

Roma Lister was a folklorist and occult writer who was mostly active in the early 20th century. Her literary associates and spiritual collaborators included a number of widely-published journalists, including Charles G. Leland,[1] Lilian Whiting, and W.T. Stead.[2]

In her memoirs, Reminiscences: Social and Political (1926) and Further Reminiscences: Occult and Social (1927), Lister wrote extensively about her encounters with mediumistic phenomena[3] and ghostlore.[4]

Arild Rosenkrantz, the noted Danish painter and Anthroposophist, was her first cousin.[5]
