Vernon George Wentworth Harrison (March 14, 1912 in Warwickshire, October 14, 2001) was a former president of the Royal Photographic Society, a member of the Society for Psychical Research (SPR), and a professional "research worker of disputed documents".

In 1984 Harrison studied the various documents related to the "Hodgson Report". On May 8, 1986, the SPR published his research, J'Accuse: An Examination of the Hodgson Report of 1885 (revised by Harrison in 1997 after more research). Harrison ultimately concluded that the Hodgson Report was not scientifically sound, but was "flawed and untrustworthy," and "should be read with great caution, if not disregarded."
