Wonders of the Invisible World was a book published in 1693 by Cotton Mather, defending both belief in witchcraft as an evil magical power, and Mather's own role in the witchhunt conducted in Salem, Massachusetts.
Its arguments are largely derivative of Sadducismus Triumphatus by Joseph Glanvill.
A copy of Glanvill's book was in Mather's library when he died.

There is no first hand account of the poltergeist, except for Joseph Glanvil, who describes it in Sadducismus Triumphatus (1668).
Although Glanvil is the only authority for this the happenings, what he declare to have witnessed certainly is not marvelous, but only descriptions of scratches and pantings heard in the vicinity of the children's beds.

The drummer, under­stood to be the cause of the trouble, was transported, when peace once more reigned in the afflicted household ; but ere long he managed to return, when the disturbances broke out with renewed vigour.
There is no first-hand account of this poltergeist, save that of Joseph Glanvil--Sadducismus Triumphatus, 1668--and though Glanvil is our authority for the whole story, that part of it which he himself declares to have witnessed is certainty not the most marvellous, but describes scratchings and pantings heard in the vicinity of the childrens' beds.
