Teresa Helena Higginson (27 May 1844 – 15 February 1905) was a British Roman Catholic mystic.
Higginson was born in Holywell, Flintshire, United Kingdom in 1844 where her parents were staying whilst on pilgrimage to the shrine of St. Winefride.[1] Her father Robert Francis Higginson was a Catholic and his wife was a convert. Higginson went to a convent school in Nottingham, and became a schoolteacher at Bootle.[2]
During her life Higginson's hands and feet bled in a way known as stigmata,[1] she went into prayer trances that lasted days, and she "violently re-enacted" the scenes in the Stations of the Cross.[3]
Higginson died in Chudleigh and was declared a Servant of God in 1937.[4] She was discussed as a possible candidate for beatification in 1928.[5] Many letters written by Higginson are in the archives at St Augustine's Abbey, Ramsgate, with duplicates at the Metropolitan Cathedral of Christ the King Liverpool.[6]
