Irina Spalko, the family's most prominent member, in 1957
The Spalko family was a Russian family of which Irina Spalko was part. Family members included:
- Irina Spalko's mother - Apparent matriarch
- Irina Spalko – Colonel, Doctor, KGB agent and Soviet Union official
The Spalkos lived in a small mountain village in the eastern regions of Ukraine, then part of the Soviet Socialist Republic. However, they were all ostracized when Irina began to manifest apparent psychic powers, prompting the superstitious villagers to shun Irina and her relatives, who left her to herself, prompting Spalko to flee from them[1] for good in her quest for knowledge.[2]
