Download or read book A Century of Ghost Stories written by Richard Sugg and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-03-31 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents one hundred real-life stories from the nineteenth century press. Along with accounts of ghosts, poltergeists, and haunted houses, we meet extraordinary reports of the dying appearing hundreds or thousands of miles from the sight of their death, and living people who quite literally appear in two places at once. Analysing and interpreting these stories in the light of modern paranormal events and scientific findings, Century aims to show that ghosts and poltergeists certainly do exist. It offers a range of persuasive theories about what they really are and what they mean, and screws the microscope down on the details of ghost sightings and poltergeist incidents. Why are some ghosts grey or vague, and others able to pass as living people? Can ghosts speak? How do ghosts or poltergeists use human energy, and particularly the energy of the young or the traumatised? How do such phenomena relate to light, to electromagnetism, and even the body's circadian rhythms? This is a book about ghosts and poltergeists by someone who never expected to take them seriously. It is a book inspired by the strange experience of continually hearing such stories from people who kept them hidden until they were prompted to speak. It aims to help those who have suffered from the trauma of poltergeists, and to bring back into the open experiences which, in the developed world, have become a new kind of taboo. It is a book for anyone interested in the extraordinary effects of human emotion; the fringes of biology and physics; and the possible survival of human consciousness after death.

Download or read book The Poltergeist Prince of London written by James Clark and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It began with a key. One afternoon in 1956, in the home of the Hitchings family in Battersea, south London, a small silver key appeared on Shirley Hitchings' bed. This seemingly insignificant event heralded the beginning of one of the most terrifying, incredible and mysterious hauntings in British history. The spirit, who quickly became known as 'Donald', began to communicate, initially via tapping sounds, but over time - and with the encouragement of psychical researcher Harold Chibbett, whose case-files appear here – by learning to write. Soon, the spirit had begun to make simply incredible claims about his identity, insisting that he was one of the most famous figures in world history – but what was the truth? Here, for the first time, is the full story, told by the woman right at the heart of it all – Shirley herself.

Book excerpt: The stories that rationalizing and excuses can't solve... Have you ever had the feeling of being watched in an empty room? Or jumped at a fleeting shadow you saw in the corner of your eye? Did you tell yourself it was only your imagination? We all know a ghost story or two. You may have heard them at campfires or sleepovers, or maybe you can recall the experience of someone you know. Some of these are easy to explain away, fading from your memory over time. But there are always a few which linger, unexplainable and waiting to be remembered the next time you find yourself home alone. These stories are different because there's evidence that is difficult to ignore. These are not "I heard from a friend of a friend..." stories, but events and individuals whose existence can be proven. We look to professionals to challenge such claims--but what happens when doctors and lawyers acknowledge and defend possessions and hauntings? The dividing line between science and the paranormal suddenly seems less certain... When hauntings are used as legal evidence, and possessions are reported by renowned physicians, the only logical choice is to be open to the possibilities. We can no longer deny that terrifying things do happen, whether we're looking for them or not. Step into the chilling histories of events even the most stubborn skeptics cannot explain--tales which sound stranger than fiction, but are frighteningly true. In Ghost Stories, you will find cases that stump skeptics and span the globe. Inside, you will discover: 30+ chilling tales of ghosts and demons that will have you leaving on your lights next time you go to sleep at night The dark histories behind well-known stories like Dracula, Snow White, and more How hauntings have evolved in the digital age The story behind the sprawling Winchester house and its staircases leading to nowhere The asylum where thousands of patients were tortured, leaving nothing but an echo of its past Why you should never try to explore the Paris catacombs unless you're wanting an unpleasant surprise The history of the real-life doll that inspired Chucky How a Ouija board affected an entire town And much more. If you find yourself scoffing at the idea of demons and ghosts, hold your judgment until you've read the compelling research presented. We try to define our world in clear, rational terms. But time and time again, experiences teach us that the world is not rational, and that denying the unexplainable won't make it go away. If you're ready to discover what lurks in the shadows and stalks in the night, then scroll up and click the "Add to Cart" button right now. Be sure to leave your nightlight on.
Download or read book Ghosts and Poltergeists in History written by Anita Croy and published by The Rosen Publishing Group, Inc. This book was released on 2019-07-15 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One reason why supernatural ghost films are so terrifying is simple: ghosts may actually exist. Ghosts pop up everywhere in popular culture, but the ideology behind them has its roots deep in history. The belief in life beyond death and hauntings started in ancient Mesopotamia and Egypt, then grew over time, as did ghost traditions and superstitions around the world. It's difficult to ignore the numerous accounts of ghost and poltergeist sightings, so readers beware: some of these tales may seem a bit too realistic for comfort.
