Customer Reviews

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

I recommend this book to anyone who is interested in learning about parnormal people. THis book contains many topics on several people. It tells about Harry Houdini, Aleister Crowley and many others. I recommend to anyone intrested in sprits and paranormality.

A Rational and Entertaining Look at the Paranormal

Considering the large volume of material available on the paranormal, I found this book somewhat refreshing. Rather being simply another list of the same old paranormal stories, this author has tried to clear away some of the myth and rumour that has grown up around the paranormal and has had some success. Using good old fashioned research, he has managed to find new and unusual stories about strange happenings and has put a sparkle on some familiar stories which have clearly gathered a good deal of untruth about them over the years. I would recommend this book to anybody who has an interest in understanding the paranormal, rather than those who fancy Agent Scully!
