Edison’s Electric Pen

Here’s Edison’s electric pen that Dr. Charles Brunson modified and used on Evelyn Barker in Thomas Edison: RESURRECTOR.

Brunson’s pen was modified to probe areas of the brain, specifically pain and pleasure areas. Edison was shocked that his invention was used for such dark purposes. Brunson uses the pen on Evelyn in the chapter, The House on Ridge Avenue and Notebook #10.

Edison’s electric pen was a commercial flop but it found new life as the go to device for tattoos.
