An excellent read from the paranormal research fictions of the 60s and 70s. Great book with spooky bits, detective bits and a happy ending. I was glad to have a chance to read this again after so long.l
For those looking for a "light" ghost story

Our 'Hero' investigates hauntings and in this book he gets plenty to look into, including self-playing harps, dematerializing nuns and a house full of people on edge. The book is written in a light, airy manner, and is not for readers looking for spine-chilling horror. But it is fun and an easy read.
A great, fun read

I remember reading this book when I was in high school and just falling in love with it. It's not a gory thriller and it's not a deep psychological thriller. What it is is an engaging tale of a psychic investigator trying to sort out the many ghosts - both earthly and unearthly? - haunting Paradine Hall. Paul Gallico has a magic to his writing and it's very apparent here. The characters are engaging, infuriating, and every emotion in between. This is a great read if you're looking for something enjoyable yet with a little suspense and mystery. Wonderful tale.
