Staceyinfo Posted April 28, 2009 #2 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Hmmm...my first reply did not go through. Let me try this again- I said that a really informative yet funny book is Will Storr vs. The Supernatural. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leah G. Posted April 30, 2009 #3 Share Posted April 30, 2009 I just read a good book, Personally Haunted. It's availble on line at various book stores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senator Palpatine Posted May 3, 2009 #5 Share Posted May 3, 2009 Perhaps not specifically 'ghost book' I'd say, but worth a look; * Dimensions - Jacques Vallee * The Trickster and The Paranormal - George Hansen * Daimonic Reality - Patrick Harpur 'Dimensions' is mostly a UFO book, but the author connects UFO's to ghosts, poltergeists, cryptids and so on. The same could be said with the other two, 'The Trickster' focusing on psionics and 'Daimonic Reality' on psychology. Worth a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus Aurelius Posted May 8, 2009 #6 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Read Ghost Hunter: William James and the Search for Scientific Proof of Life After Death. I cannot recomend this book enough. Anyone interested in paranormal research and investigation should check it out, because it will give you a historic point of view on the field. It chronicles the psychologist and philosopher William James in the 1800s and his involvement with ASPR...the american society for psychical research...and their investigation of the spiritualist movement, mediums, hauntings....it is a great read.

Paranormalcy Posted May 8, 2009 #7 Share Posted May 8, 2009 I suggest Harry Price, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's spiritualism stuff, maybe some books on poltergeists too, Nandor Fodor, William G. Roll. If yu want to go back a bit, anything by members of the SPR like Lodge, Sedgewick, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalton O. M. Sihite~ Posted May 8, 2009 #10 Share Posted May 8, 2009 THe Weird 100 (Steven Spignesi) Unexplained! Strange Sightings, Incredible Occurrences & and Puzzling Physical Phenomenon (Jerome Clark) Both books are on all sorts of paranormal stuff - and they have specific chapters and sections dedicated to ghosts, demons, poltergeists, and possessions. Both are great books two, I've read The Weird 100 at least twice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
