Book excerpt: Following a formative childhood meeting with the soul of her recently deceased grandmother, Natalie Osborne-Thomason's consuming interest has been to research and write about ghosts. As a natural psychic, she is blessed with the gift of being able to deepen this quest beyond the capacities of most ghost hunters, allowing her to sense, perceive and experience what many cannot. Following on from her acclaimed Ghost Hunting Case Book, Psychic Quest features Osborne-Thomason's many personal experiences of ghosts and her own search for answers. Interlaced with autobiographical glimpses, Osborne-Thomason tells of psychic episodes and ghostly encounters, including her meeting with the ghost of Pengersick Castle and the haunting spirit of Woodford church. She also tells of clairvoyant intuitions in Jerusalem, how she prevented a car crash, her opportunity to read the U.S. President's palm, the delights of overnight vigils in musty locations and much more. In her thoughtful conclusion, the author suggests a solution to the mystery of ghosts, and indicates how ghosts might manifest. She also gives a list of ghostly locations for would-be ghost hunters.
