Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
The author of the Oxford Illustrated History of Witchcraft and Magic unveils the history of witches in one of southwest England’s most spiritual sites. The belief in witchcraft and magic was widespread in nineteenth-century Somerset. Witches were blamed for causing the ill health and death of people and their animals.

Astrologers and fortune-tellers were also widely consulted. This ebook is a fascinating exploration of the lives of all those who were caught up in the world of magic witches and their victims, and occult practitioners and their clients. It will appeal to anyone with a general interest in witchcraft, rural history, folklore or the history of Somerset. A People Bewitched is part of The Paranormal, a series that resurrects rare titles, classic publications, and out-of-print texts, as well as publishes new supernatural and otherworldly ebooks for the digital age.

Science and the Paranormal
Author: Arthur J. Ellison
Publisher: David & Charles
ISBN: 1446357805
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 339
Book Description
“Ellison was . . . a dedicated paranormal researcher who believed the science was too narrow to account for things like out-of-body experiences” (io9). In facts, not fiction, this book presents the case for the paranormal. Changing the way we look at the universe is not easy, and requires a true openness to exploration and experiment. Professor Ellison suggests that most of us are conditioned by our Western science-based education to think that the universe is much simpler and ‘material’ than it really is. He argues that we should recognize the limits of the current scientific worldview that fails to account for genuine paranormal experiences, including phenomena such as out-of-body experiences (OBE), reliably reported by thousands of people. Science and the Paranormal is part of The Paranormal, a series that resurrects rare titles, classic publications, and out-of-print texts, as well as publishes new supernatural and otherworldly ebooks for the digital age. The series includes a range of paranormal subjects from angels, fairies, and UFOs to near-death experiences, vampires, ghosts, and witchcraft. “A most valuable work and a lasting testimony to the author’s remarkable contribution to the field.” —Bernard Carr, Scientific and Medical Network Review “Written for the lay person in down-to-earth language . . . this book is for those who want a broad-brush of matters like the evidence for telepathy, near death experiences, survival research etc. without having to plough through a century-high stack of scientific papers. A welcome introduction to human nature’s further reaches.” —Christian Parapsychologist

Apparitions
Author: G. N. M Tyrell
Publisher: David & Charles
ISBN: 1446358267
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
An influential ghost reference book from “a pioneer of paranormal research who developed theories still relevant today” (The Spook Isles). Apparitions delves into G.N.M Tyrrell’s ghost classification method, an interesting and thought-provoking system that is still in use today. Tyrrell’s four categories include experiments, crisis, post-mortem and ghosts. Tyrrell develops the idea that the apparition may be a way for the unconscious part of the mind to bring to consciousness information that has been paranormally acquired—in crisis cases, for example. He introduces an evocative metaphor of a mental ‘stage-carpenter,’ behind the scenes in the unconscious part of the mind, and constructing the quasi-perceptual experience that eventually appears on the stage of consciousness, so that it embodies paranormal information in a symbolic way. Tyrrell first introduced the term out-of-body-experience in this book. Apparitions is part of The Paranormal, a series that resurrects rare titles, classic publications, and out-of-print texts, as well as publishes new supernatural and otherworldly ebooks for the digital age. The series includes a range of paranormal subjects from angels, fairies, and UFOs to near-death experiences, vampires, ghosts, and witchcraft.

The Ghosts of Borley
Author: Wesley H. Downes
Publisher: David & Charles
ISBN: 1446357880
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 78
Book Description
A paranormal investigation into the haunting of the infamous Borley Rectory and other chilling lore of England. Built in 1863, the Gothic-style parish in the Essex village of Borley gained a nerve-jangling notoriety. Claims of apparitions, unexplained footsteps, and a phantom carriage that rode the grounds after dark, made the mansion as forbidding to locals as it was a draw to ghost hunters. Even after it was destroyed, the unexplainable terrors of what was known as “the most haunted house in England” continued. Borley House is just one of the legends featured in this compendium of the supernatural phenomena occurring for centuries on the Essex/Suffolk border. Psychic investigator Wesley Downes also explores the mysterious “Sweeps Boy” of Dedham; the vanishing island off Manningtree; the ghosts of Thorington Hall and the White Hart Hotel in Nayland; the strange visitations in Capel St. Mary; and the restless spirit of Matthew Hopkins, the sadistic 17th century Witchfinder General who still haunt the countryside. And many more. The Ghosts of Borley is part of The Paranormal, a series that resurrects rare titles, classic publications, and out-of-print texts, as well as publishes new supernatural and otherworldly ebooks for the digital age. The series includes a range of paranormal subjects from angels, fairies, and UFOs to near-death experiences, vampires, ghosts, and witchcraft.
