The Ghost Files

Very good and interesting book, I believe if you are interested in this kind of subject matter, you will love this book.

Åmazing!

Jeff's done it again. I totally disagree with Brenda. It seems she might of been having a bad day. Then again, we all have our opinions. . . I for one, found this book to be fascinating! The heading says it all, encounters, discussion, and research should give you a clue as to the content of this book. Once again, Jeff delivers! By the way, I really enjoyed the chapter on the Dibbuk box. Terrifying! Keep up the good work. I look forward to purchasing your next one! Ghosty girl

Ghostly new book from a great author

This is one of my favorite books by Jeff. It's got a bunch of ghost encounters from people all over the place, plus he explores some of the more fascinating aspects of ghosts -- like possession, animal ghosts, and psychics. I especially appreciated the section on skeptics. He isn't afraid to point out that sometimes it isn't a ghost at all. Some of his other books talk about where to find ghostly legends, this is more about the how and why of encounters from the mouths of some of the leading experts in the field of paranormal research.
