In 1883, twelve-year-old Benjamin Ashworth from Bolton, Lancashire, lost his shadow at midnight—and then began disappearing from physical reality. This documented Victorian medical mystery challenged everything scientists understood about light, matter, and human existence.

Thirty-two witnesses, including physicians, physicists, and photographers, confirmed the impossible: Benjamin cast no shadow under any light source. As weeks passed, he lost weight, his reflection faded, and he gained prophetic abilities—all while slowly vanishing from our world.

This is the true story of the shadowless boy, preserved in Manchester Medical Society archives and suppressed for sixty years. Discover how Benjamin reached the threshold between existence and non-existence, what happened at midnight on New Year's Eve 1884, and why he never cast a shadow again.
