Historic Ghosts and Ghost Hunters
Author: Henry Bruce
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781540397928
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 164
Book Description
"The present book is a collection of fascinating and strange stories relating to famous mysteries....Such a volume could hardly fail to be readable, and the author has been successful in putting his narratives into a semi-fictional form which has spirit and entertainment. Mr. Bruce expresses in his preface the belief that while the last word has not been said with regard to such enigmas as are here discussed, we have in the last quarter-century by investigations reached at least approximately correct solutions." -New Outlook "Will attract attention alike from the student of psychic phenomena and from the mystery pure and simple. The collection is worth reading from more than one point of view." -Chicago Record-Herald "The ghost stories he has told us are interesting and not easily available." -Independent "The author has done his work extremely well." -New York Times "In this collection of famous events in which discarnate spirits were said to have played a large part, Mr. Bruce has given us a volume as interesting as romance....The theory of telepathy and the subliminal self has been brought in and most ingeniously used to explain happenings which seemed clearly to indicate to those concerned that the spirits of the dead had returned and communicated with them." -The Arena "The inference is, that as these historic ghosts of the past disappear before the advancing knowledge of man's natural abilities, so will the so-called supernatural manifestations of the present yield to the knowledge of the morrow. In the last chapter we find an appreciative estimate of the work of the Society for Psychical Research. The writer claims very properly that it is a mistake to count the work of this society a failure because they still lack a scientific demonstration of the spiritual world. He calls attention to the fact that the exposure of the fraudulent claims of the demonstrators of supernaturalism - the stimulus given to the study of the psychical and abnormal mental conditions - the revelation of the powers of mind over body - the clearer light shed on educational and reformatory processes and methods by this society - all testify to the worth of the work being done by the 'ghost hunters of today.'" -The Western Christian Advocate "Eleven historic ghost stories by the author of 'The Riddle of Personality.' Mr. Bruce, who is a well-known investigator of psychological phenomena and an accomplished historian of the various lines of investigation which have culminated in the developments of today, has carefully studied all the recorded facts bearing upon each of the celebrated ghost stories he here relates, and follows each carefully stated story with a carefully considered modern explanation." -Publishers Weekly CONTENTS Preface I. The Devils of Loudun II. The Drummer of Tedworth III. The Haunting of the Wesleys IV. The Visions of Emanuel Swedenborg V. The Cock Lane Ghost VI. The Ghost Seen by Lord Brougham VII. The Seeress of Prevorst VIII. The Mysterious Mr. Home IX. The Watseka Wonder X. A Medieval Ghost Hunter XI. Ghost Hunters of Yesterday and To-Day

Pages : 207
Book Description
"In Ghosthunters, John Kachuba explores some of America's great haunts while he introduces us to the people who actually go searching for ghosts. His writing takes the reader on a haunted journey—it's like riding shotgun with him while he creeps through haunted asylums, abandoned farmhouses, and historic battlefields, and speaks with some of the biggest names in this field of study. If something goes bump in the night, have no fear—John Kachuba won't be far behind." —Jeff Belanger, founder of Ghostvillage.com and author of The World's Most Haunted Places Why do ghosts fascinate so many people? To answer that question, writer and paranormal researcher John Kachuba aka “The Ghosthunter” investigates haunted locations throughout the country and interviews scores of people who have had paranormal encounters. The author discovers a growing interest in ghosts today, which has spurred an American pop culture phenomenon based on the supernatural. Combining his case reports of actual hauntings, discussions with leading figures in the paranormal world, and stories about related subjects–buying ghosts on eBay, buying and selling haunted houses, ghost tourism–Ghosthunters presents an intriguing and witty look at America’s paranormal world. Set off down the trail of the paranormal and read about: A ghost hunt in a Connecticut coffee shop with lay religious demonologist David Considine. Spending the night with the ghost of Miss Lily at St. Augustine, Florida’s historic St. Francis Inn. Spiritualist minister Rev. Rose Vanden Eynden’s abilities to talk with the dead. The search for the headless inmate on a ghost hunt at West Virginia’s Moundsville State Penitentiary.

The Victorian Ghost Hunter's Casebook
Author: Charles Dickens
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781948084079
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 218
Book Description
Untraceable whispering voices.Gnome-like spirits who walk through walls.A room that glows with an eerie, life-draining light.Disembodied footsteps that climb stairs but never descend.A house with doors that open by themselves-even when locked.After a period of strong skepticism among writers and intellects regarding the reality of ghosts, the Victorian era (1837-1901) revitalized interest in seriously exploring houses and other locations alleged to be haunted. The paranormal investigators, including Charles Dickens and Arthur Conan Doyle, chronicled their methods and discoveries. Equipped with little more than candles, patience, and perhaps a flask of brandy, these men and women laid a foundation for the ghost hunters of today.The Victorian Ghost Hunter's Casebook presents some of the most intriguing, most frightening, and most charming of the chronicles left behind. Ghostlore scholar Tim Prasil provides an Introduction about what motivated the Victorians to investigate spectral manifestations, along with the history of ghost hunters that preceded them. He also provides enlightening details on twelve ghostly cases located in Britain, and an Appendix with two more ghost hunts held in the United States during the Victorian era.
