Ghostly Flickerings was composed in 2006, originally as part of John Carbon's third opera Out of this World (2007). The opera, with a libretto by Dorothy Louise, centers on the debate that Doyle and Houdini had about life beyond the grave. Other images and characters, including the ghost of Queen Victoria, and a shell-shocked soldier from World War I, are projected as 'ghostly flickerings' at the very close of the opera. The undulating arpeggiations allude to the ocean music used at the beginning of Act II, which sets the scene at the boardwalk in Atlantic City.
