Download or read book A Brief Guide to Ghost Hunting written by Leo Ruickbie and published by Robinson. This book was released on 2013-08-15 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has been an upsurge in books, television programmes, films and websites exploring the reality or otherwise of the spirit world. Not since the founding of The Ghost Club in 1862 and the Society for Psychical Research in 1882 has ghost hunting been so popular. Television and the internet, in particular, have fueled this new level of interest, creating a modern media phenomenon that spans the globe. But while the demand for information is high, good information remains scarce. A Brief Guide to Ghost Hunting leads us through the process of ghost hunting, from initially weighing the first report, to choosing equipment, and investigating and identifying the phenomena, with an analysis of the best places to go looking, methods of contacting the spirit world, how to explain paranormal activity and, crucially, how to survive the encounter. However, it is also a book about ghost hunting itself, drawing on 130 years of research in the cavernous archives of the Society for Psychical Research and even older history to find the earliest ghost stories. A Ghost Hunting Survey makes use of interviews with those billing themselves as ghost hunters to find out their views, motivations and experiences. New and original research makes use of statistics to map the nebulous world of apparitions while a Preliminary Survey of Hauntings offers an analysis of 923 reported phenomena from 263 locations across the UK. This is, as far as possible, an objective presentation of ghosts and ghost hunting. It is no wonder that mainstream science largely refuses to deal with the subject: it is too complicated. Without trying to convince you of any viewpoint, this book is intended to help you understand more.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “If ever any isles deserved the name Magic Islands, it is Britain.” Great Britain, home of haunted castles, famous specters and time-shrouded ruins, is a natural habitat for Professor Hans Holzer, ghost hunter extraordinaire. With the skill and dedication that have made him famous in parapsychology, he has traced the fascinating paths of some remarkable ghosts through Britain and Scotland. In these pages Holzer introduces us to the ancient halls of Longleat, Blanchland, and Leith Hall, each distinctively eerie and all populated by most unusual inhabitants. Through him and skilled mediums working with him, we encounter the ghosts of famous queens—Anne Boleyn, Catherine Howard, Mary Queen of Scots and Katherine Parr. And we travel the English and Scottish countryside in search of engrossing psychic experiences. Holzer also takes us on an eventful tour through the home of Robert Louis Stevenson, who still seems to haunt his former residence. He even investigates the appearance of a monk—an apparition seen by several people—on an English television program. A most entertaining and thoroughly researched trip into that other world, The Great British Ghost Hunt is an exciting journey led by one of this world’s most renowned psychic researchers.

Download or read book Ghost Hunter s Casebook written by Bowen Pearse and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2011-10-24 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For 60 years Andrew Green was one of Britain's most active and best-known ghost-hunters. The Daily Telegraph famously christened him “the Specter Inspector.” He investigated hundreds of reported hauntings during his career, from famous cases such as “the poltergeist girl of Battersea” to cases where a client had simply taken the wrong medication before bed. His interest in the supernatural began on a summer's day in 1944. As he explored the roof of a haunted house, a compulsion suddenly gripped him— “Walk over the edge.” Only his father's intervention saved him; he later discovered that several other visitors had not been as fortunate. This experience resulted in a life-long fascination with the paranormal, and the most important cases from his lifetime of research are collected together in this volume alongside new research and many reports that have never previously been published. This is an essential guide to the career of Britain's most famous ghost-hunter.
