beyond the veil

Where spirits dwell

Beyond the veil means in the realm of the dead or the unknown afterlife.

The veil is an imagined barrier separating the living from whatever lies after death: She wondered if her grandmother could see her from beyond the veil.

The phrase sometimes extends to any hidden or mysterious realm beyond ordinary perception.
