Product Description
Dare to Hunt Ghosts!If you know nothing about ghost hunting, this is the book where you can start.Instead of merely compiling personal experiences, humorous anecdotes, and ghost stories, Jaeson delivers a body of procedural how-to knowledge that will allow the budding Ghost Hunter to have their own experiences, and discover their own stories. Written in an academic textbook style in over 300 pages, it provides a technical and detailed foundation of knowledge needed for the novice Ghost Hunter to scientifically investigate claims of ghost sightings. It also provides an invaluable reference in one book for more experienced Ghost Hunters. Jaeson has been actively Ghost Hunting since 1997.www.jaesonjrakman.com ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Covers a lot. Finally a truely scientific look.
A great and very heavy read. I am a professional ghost hunter and I enjoyed the book. I agree it may be a little heavy for beginners. I have lent it to some friends wanting to read on the subject and they didn't make it past the first thirty pages.

For the beginner I recommend: How To Hunt Ghosts by Joshua Warren.

For the informed ghost hunter or patient enthusiast, I recommend this book.

3-0 out of 5 stars Book review
The book is a serious approach to the subject, some very good information. Bad side is quite a few wasted pages as spacers and with just a small amount of info on a entire page. Plus a section of "movies about ghosts" with Amityville Horror, that was pretty well debunked.

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent Book!
This book is extremely well written.The beginning chapters give you a very in-depth look into the science behind ghost hunting and the equipment used.I have read many good ghost hunting books and this is definitely one of the best ones out there.Everything you can think of is included in this how-to.It is written like a text, but does not bore.Great for beginners and seasoned investigators, alike.

5-0 out of 5 stars Don't miss this one...
I have read alot of books on the subject of ghosts and ghost hunting and I think this may just be the best of them all. At first I wasn't sure when the author got in to the brain stuff but it really makes you think, and it was very interesting. I like how he goes over so many different paranormal subjects, and he makes you think about all the possible reasons for activity. He's not trying to make you believe one way or the other,(which I find a refreshing change) but rather gives you all the options to consider so you'll take more time to review things. I think this book is a must for beginners. It's well written in simple language so you don't get lost in all the technical talk. Experienced investigators can benefit from this book too. There are good books on the subject out there but if you're looking for one you can refer to time and time again this is the one.

5-0 out of 5 stars "The Art of Ghost Hunting"
"The Art of Ghost Hunting" by Jaeson Jrakman begins with the author arguing the validity of the field as a scientific pursuit. He says: "Anything that exists can be studied and understood. Therefore, it boils down to whether or not you believe that life after death is a real possibility. If you say that it is silly superstitious nonsense than by your own admission you are saying that you do not believe that you will survive your own physical death. If on the other hand you are willing to entertain this possibility, than certainly it may exist, so why not study it? If something as life after death exists, than it must have a physics by which it works. For the scientific community to say that such things cannot exist with absolute certainty they ignore their own axiom, 'you can not prove a negative.'

"The scientific community will also repeatedly state that extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof. And they are absolutely correct. And most certainly there has never been the sort of concrete evidence brought forth to the scientific community to this date, which without a doubt proves the existence of life after death. But if science refuses to even investigate, this extraordinary proof will never be found, or brought forward. While orthodox science is extremely adept at analyzing and studying things that are readily known, it is very poor at keeping an open mind. History is replete with proclamations from the orthodox scientific establishment, and those like-minded, decreeing that a thing cannot be done, only later to watch that very thing being accomplished before the entire world."

The author then spends the next fifty pages talking about, not ghosts, but the brain and how it works: "Understanding the human brain and how it functions may help us to comprehend two things. First, it will teach us how the synaptic functions of the brain may help a witness to perceive, or cause to mentally fabricate the vision of a ghost. Second, how the software contained within the brain identified as self may one day become a ghost. But understand it as one might try; the brain remains a scientific enigma. Homo Sapiens have walked upon the Earth for at least 3,500,000 years, yet the bulk of mankind's knowledge of the brain has been attained only in the last 20 years. In fact, humans have known the location of the brain in the body for only the last 500 years. Thus we are logically forced to conclude that the sum total of the knowledge we have acquired today regarding the human brain is most probably less than 1% of what there is to know. When one particular experiment proves the brain works a certain way, another experiment comes along to make the previous experiment meaningless. Therefore it may be no surprise that a human may either have an illness or condition that causes a person to see delusions of ghosts, or may very well have an ability to see a working aspect of the universe which is normally closed off to those without the appropriate brain functions."

By the time he finally gets to talking about ghosts, it's established that this is someone with a brain. I know Jaeson and have been on a few investigations with him. I'm always impressed by his knowledge and he's very professional. One time on an investigation he drove over eighty miles just to sit in a bar and pretend to be in real estate so he could ask some locals a couple questions.

The first book I ever read about ghost hunting was "How To Be A Ghost Hunter" by Richard Southall. If you've never seen a season of Ghost Hunters and know NOTHING about ghost hunting, that book will teach you the basics, but I wanted more. This was the second book about ghost hunting that I read, and I think it may be a little too dense for some beginners but the addition of a physics glossary at the back of the book helps. I also read "The Ghost Hunter's Bible" by Troy Taylor, and I found that was a little easier, but it didn't go into the science as much. If you're having difficulty (and most people with a college education won't), I recommend starting with "The Ghost Hunter's Bible" and then reading "The Art of Ghost Hunting".

This isn't just another book to teach you how to conduct your own ghost hunt, though it does that very well. It teaches you how to be a ghost hunter. What I mean by that is, it takes more than just watching every episode of Ghost Hunters and knowing what a residual haunting is. You have to do your OWN research. You can start by learninghow the brain works and some of the theories out there of what consciousness is. This book can start you on the path to learning some of that.

The problem with many ghost hunters is that they base all their knowledge off of things they've heard on TV and heard everyone else say, but they don't do their own research, like how you hear everywhere how apparitions have to draw energy from the environment to manifest. If you actually do some research for yourself, many people believe consciousness might BE some kind of energy. A ghost wouldn't need to draw energy from batteries, appliances, etc. because it IS energy. Battery drainage might just be a reaction to its energy. (They often go dead on investigations, but then as soon as you leave the site they're mysteriously recharged again.) Temperature change might be something like the Peltier Effect. Standard EMF meters are only designed to detect the kind of EMFs that technology produces - they may not even work for detecting a ghost! (There could also be a reaction between the ghost's energy and the EMF of the environment.) The point is, just because everyone says it doesn't make it true!

The book is 291 pages without the appendices and is written in a text book style. It also covers the history of ghost hunting and parapsychology, the different types of hauntings, various natural and metaphysical phenomena, what kind of equipment to buy, how to get a group started, and it takes you through the steps of conducting an investigation. There are samples of legal forms that you can photocopy and use, environmental logs, samples of letters to send out to people to request an investigation, and samples of EVP questions you can ask. It also gives you an example for how to map out a house, and there's a section for false positives.

The part that I thought was the most useful was his advice for how to start your own group. This is the second edition of this book, I had the first edition when I was getting my first group started, and this would have helped me then. The first thing to do before you strike at it alone is to contact an existing group in your area and ask if you can shadow them on a couple investigations just to learn the ropes. Jaeson actually took 10 months of classes before he ever went on an investigation. When you think you're ready, try to find a few other people to join your group. This is easier said than done. You have to be careful and you shouldn't just take anybody and everybody who's interested. You could end up with someone who has completely different methods or beliefs than your own, someone who has a clashing personality, someone who seems really nice in person but as soon as you take them out on an investigation they can't keep quiet, someone who'll get bored with it after a couple investigations when they realize it isn't non-stop action, someone who just wants to get on TV, or someone with an unhinged personality. Give them an application first, talk to them, then meet them. Maybe give them a trial period before you tell them they're in the group. Also, have a group of no more than four or five. The more people you have, the greater the risk of conflicting methods or personalities. It also takes longer to decide things and to set up dates for investigations that everybody can make. You can also only have so many people at an investigation site at one time, and if there are too many people in your group then you're going to have to rotate who gets to go.

The next thing to do is to get a website up and start getting your name out. Meet up with other ghost hunting groups and get networked. They might invite you along on some of their investigations, and you can see their different methods. Don't expect the cases to come jumping out of the woodwork, it takes time. Put out some fliers. You can send letters to people asking to do an investigation when you're starting out, but later wait for them to come to you. When you've been doing this for at least a year, you can contact a local paper about doing an article so you can get more cases. But getting in the paper or on TV shouldn't be your ultimate goal.

5-0 out of 5 stars Tales Of The Undead
This book had a lot of scary stories in here, and all were about ghosts, most were good and scary, however, a few were boring, but overall kept my attention. One of the stories was called "How He Left The Hotel" which is about a lady who worked in a hotel, she worked the passenger lift, which is now called a elevator and no one has to work it now like they did in the old days. Well anyway, she worked the passenger lift and one day a Colonel came to stay at the hotel who always used the lift at a certain time, but for a while, he didn't come, so she went in the Colonel's room. He was there, but he was very sick, he said he needed to rest so she left. The next day he came out of his room without saying a word almost as if he was gliding into the lift by himself. Right after he left, a bunch of people and doctors came who were crying and holding a funeral basket, they went in the Colonel's room. I don't want to be a spoiler, so you can guess what happened to the Colonel and why he didn't say a word and seemed like he was floating. There are about 42 other stories, so if you want to hear the rest of them, and how the story with the Colonel ends, then get the book and read it.

5-0 out of 5 stars Enlightening!
Wow!I read this book on a recommendation from a close friend and I was amazed!I loved this book!!!

5-0 out of 5 stars Facinating and Enlightening
This is an intriguing story about a highly sensitive woman who is able to easily journey into dimensions and worlds on the other side of mundane life. Because of this, she gains many insights about the dynamics of life behind the scenes and has fascinating experiences in aspects of reality beyond convention. As I read the book, I felt like I was expanding, or growing as she systematically put many pieces of life's mysteries together, weaving all that exists into an insightful picture that is enlightening and beautiful. It had a strangely healing affect on me! I highly recommend it for anyone searching for--more.

5-0 out of 5 stars A Powerful Personal Journey
The most fascinating thing about this story is that it doesn't focus on any point of view but rather has a way of encompassing all views. I felt myself releasing small and almost repressive ways of thinking that I didn't even know I had. I was able to glimpse the overview of all of life, even beyond what we call life. Yet at the same time I felt myself getting very centered, to such a point that I was having revelations of my own. This is a powerful read that helped me rise above what is beyond all the belief systems out there--like seeing the big picture. I feel uplifted and enlightened, pretty much like a big weight has been lifted off my shoulders.

5-0 out of 5 stars Check out this book!!!
Wow!Another enlightening book by one of my favorite authors.I was hooked in with the first book, The Other Side of God, and I have been eagerly awaiting the next book.Reading The Other side of Life has also changed my life in a positive way!It is full of adventure, metaphysics and spiritual healing.I especially like the advise/inspiration the author gives at the end of each chapter.Her knowledge as an experienced psychologist really shines through and would often make me smile while I was reading.I recommend this book to anyone who is in search of themselves, a new thought process, or just an escape from the mundane!This book will expand your perspective when you gaze upon the stars in the sky! ...

4-0 out of 5 stars Eyewitness excursions into the realms of the supernatural
The author has witnessed a few ghosts of his own and his experiences are included in "Ghosts and Hauntings", along with hundreds of other eye-witness accounts that he solicited through newspaper and radio ads (primarily in Great Britain).This book was originally published in 1965, and several of the stories are of pre-war and World War II vintage.Bardens also includes several often-published stories such as the ghostly bear in the Tower of London, Lord Soulis and his pact with the Devil, and the haunting of Borley Rectory. He tries to stick to accounts that had two or more witnesses who were willing to corroborate each other.For some of his chosen hauntings, there were a hundred or more witnesses, and for others, the story was too good to omit even if only one person had seen or heard the ghost.

Haunted ships are well represented in "Ghosts and Hauntings", although Bardens' 'Flying Dutchman' doesn't resemble the 'Flying Dutchman' I'd heard about from other sources (What plague?What pirates?).If you were frightened by that horrid little ghost story, "The Upper Berth", then this book's seafaring ghosts will really raise the hair on the back of your neck.I swear I'll never go on another cruise!

One minor problem I had with "Ghosts and Hauntings" was that the author kept interjecting his theories on the origins of supernatural phenomena into the stories.I think his writing would have been even more eerie and interesting if he had simply reported the hauntings, and kept his theories of cerebral electricity for another publication.

Definitely read Barden's book if you enjoy excursions into the realm of true hauntings. Just go quickly over the parts about electricity in the brain. ... Read more

Summery

This paper, written by Metaphysicist and Bestselling Author Dr. Theresa M. Kelly expresses the need for Para Ethics to protect non-threatening spirits from harm that can be the result of paranormal investigative equipment and “ghost busting” methodology. The author explains her reasoning, based on years of first hand experience, why it is unethical to exorcise non-threatening spirits due to the harm that can come from removing a spirit from its space. She also lists many everyday objects and activities that can be detrimental to a spirit. The author includes a brief description of different types of spirits including poltergeists and explains how to tell the difference between types and whether it is unethical to exorcise that type of spirit. In this paper the author proposes that the spirit of a deceased human being does qualify under the definition of conscious and therefore all spirits should be treated as though they are living entities entitled to rights and laws.

Topics

* Para Ethics
* Conscious and Alive
* Why Para Ethics and Laws are Crucial
* How you Affect Spirits
* Types of Spirits
* Life Span

Excerpt: "As spirits decay they become less active and therefore less of an annoyance or threat.Spirits in a highly advanced state of decay are harmless, but can inadvertently cause physical effects, such as chills, or emotional effects, such a mood swings, when in the direct vicinity of this type of spirit, especially walking through them. Spirits of many types can cause “cold spots,” but cold spots are not a determinate of paranormal activity as cold spots can be caused by natural temperature variances such humidity."

4-0 out of 5 stars ghosts that follow you home
The value of this book lies in recognizing what is there as much as what one sees. A very respected friend recommended it and I bought it on her word. One the surface is has some issues that might be dealt with in a second edition should it ever get there. The "price of admission" reference in the intro sent up flags of the suggestion one was getting tickets to a sideshow rather than something real. The first third of the book is a bio of the author. Interesting as background, but not terribly relevant to the book. The second third is a fascinating jumble of science and art. Lots of gems and ideas get presented in the array. The regret is that it is not very well tied together. With development this section could be great. As it is the homework is left to the reader with little direction. A few areas tend to be somewhat contradictory. As an example, the paragraph on talismans. amulets, and cures, tells us these are considered superstitions but that feng shui uses them as visual aids. This either undercuts feng shui with the suggestion that it is a shallow, somewhat cynical, art form, or that there is a lack of grasp/scope in the appreciation of the spiritual value of these areas. Again, the section suffers from lack of development so we don't know for sure. Another is the suggestion of the I Ching as a binary computer system. Interesting concept, but given the layers of consciousness with which it is in contact one has the concern that perhaps more of this very complex area could be reduced to ones and zeroes. Not true and not tied together. All this said it the substance is quite useful for further work by the reader. Where the book shines is the last third. While residual spirits from people dying at home doesn't happen so much in North America, one does have a more significant related situation to which this section is relevant. In the course of daily modern life one tends to come in contact with lots of residual spiritual energy from the people with whom we come in contact whether we know them or not. The "clearing" section is of tremendous value for implementation of feng shui for every reader. Clearing the spiritual entities that one carries home and thus allowing one to rest, recover, relax, recreate, and grow, make this book worth working through and reading again from time-to-time.

5-0 out of 5 stars Hugely Beneficial
Dr. Anna Maria Prezio, author of Confessions of a Feng Shui Ghost Buster, has this natural and easy manner of introducing herself and her family to you. She pulls us right into her natural world of seeing our living environments as being rich with opportunities for joy or grief. She describes, using an easy recipe format, how to assess your living environment and clear whatever is disturbing your harmony. Dr. Prezio explains how to create a loving and spacious surrounding thatenhances physical, emotional, psychological, and relationship health.I have used several of her remedies in my own home; and friends enter stating that my living environment feels livelier, fresher and more intimate. If you want to learn more about how to empower your place into a sweet, peaceful, and harmonious setting-- this book is a must read. It is also a superb gift for those you wish to support to joyously empower themselves and their living environments. Thank-you Dr. Prezio.

okay so the title is quirky....this author filled up fully ONE HALF of this book in what can be summed up in one sentence: "Grandpa told me ghost stories when I was a kid....and I liked them" big deal. The author even thoughtfully included SNAP SHOTS of her family. Good grief. How much money did I waste on this? The second half of the book was random feng shui tips...random being the operative word here. There is no clue on how to tie those together into any sort of cohesive whole or how they might apply to your particular situation. Please...do not buy this book. You would be better served in your feng shui search to google "feng shui" and see what comes up. Truly you will not learn anything whatsoever in this book...it is not even slightly amusing either...unless you somehow enjoy looking at old black and white pictures of people you don't know.

Product Description
Many philosophies and religions believe that each individual living being has a unique inner essence, a unique personality, known as the soul. This belief dates back to Ancient Egypt, to at least about 3150 B.C. Many cultures also believe that the soul is immortal. Spiritualists have this same belief; we call this unique inner essence spirit.

Spiritualism is the belief that the body dies but the soul lives on as a spirit. It is the belief that the living can communicate with those who have passed. In this book, you will learn about different ways to communicate with those in spirit. You will learn about Spiritual gifts and how to discover and use your gifts. You will learn about the power of the mind, that thoughts are things, and that we create and destroy with our minds and our mouths. You will learn about Numerology, that numbers have meaning.

Through Spiritualism, you will learn to understand Natural Law, that what you give out comes back to you, that if you plant roses, you do not get carnations. Natural Law is very specific. You harvest what you plant. You reap what you sow. The Bible tells us; Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. (Galatians 6:7)

At Memorial Spiritual Christian Church we make Spiritualism a religion. To that end I have included Bible verses as they relate to the topics discussed. If you have never been a fan of the Bible, please do not be put off by them. I was never a fan, but in writing this book I found that the Bible is full of wondrous stories, bits of wisdom, poetry and songs. The Bible verses shown, unless noted, are from the King James Version.

This book is about Spiritualism as Reverend Karen Hill teaches it at Memorial Spiritual Christian Church in Cleveland, Ohio.

Our church is a memorial to the Collinwood School Fire of 1908, a fire that took the lives of 172 children and 3 adults. The parents of one of the children lost in the fire donated the land for our church. This is the story of how their donation has changed the course of history for many people. Every one of us who worships regularly at Memorial Spiritual Christian Church will tell you how our lives have changed because of what we have learned here. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Esoterica
If you enjoy scaring yourself silly, this is the book for you!The author, Harry Price, sets out to convince the world of the reality of poltergeists, & tries his darndest to sound logical & scientific in his approach to the subject.Some of the stories are obvious fillers which are not treated seriously, like those abt the alleged "haunted" houses in London.However, most of the rest, especially the story about the Borley rectory hauntings are hair-raisingly scary.Price is most convincing when he simply narrates the "evidence," as opposed to trying to weigh & draw conclusions from them.This is because Price's arguments are poorly constructed, and Price relies on antiquated class snobbery to shore up the credibility of his witnesses.For example, Price has to mention that the family who got insurance money to cover some of the damages from a poltergeist are "ofcourse upper middle class and cultured," and he notes for the benefit of the reader that it is "a professional man" who sent him a report about that particular case.Price really seems to believe that people of a high enough income bracket & certain background are incapable of an ulterior motive.When Price has to rely on a witness from a lower socio-economic background, he condescendingly describes the man as "a good old sort."This sort of fossilized approach to class initially made me think the book was written in the 1800's.As I read on, much to my surprise, Price was writing this book in the mid 1940's. Price's class snobbery & his obsequeous deference toward prominent persons, such as a barrister who once reviewed one of Price's books, is off-putting.However, they are interesting as obvious signs of Price's insecurities about his own position in society.I was intrigued enough from reading his book to google him, & it turns out that Price was a social climber from a poor working-class background who lied about his own antecedents after marrying an heiress.Altogether this book is a fascinating read for the weird & scary tales it offers, and the interesting glimpses of a complicated man who collected them. ...

4-0 out of 5 stars A Roadmap to Britain's Haunted Buildings
I wish that we'd owned a copy of "This Haunted Isle" when we toured Great Britain.It would have been either the high-point or low-point of our trip if we'd actually caught sight of a long-departed Lord or Lady. It bothers me to realize that we visited the Tower of London without a clue as to what we really might have seen.

However, your trip doesn't need to be spoiled by that same oversight, because Peter Underwood, President of the Ghost Club has published a paranormal tour guide to the haunted historic buildings of Great Britain.His book was first published back in 1984, but I don't imagine that it has gone out-of-date.What do the Grey Ladies, Phantom Hounds, and assorted ghostly prisoners in their dungeons care about the passage of time?According to the author, some of them have been haunting the same spot for several hundred years.

Of course, the phantoms may have been exorcised if they frightened too many tourists, so you are still advised to call in advance of your visit.The author even warns potential visitors, "it is not suggested that all these places [in his book] are still haunted..."

"This Haunted Isle" is arranged alphabetically, starting with Abbey House, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, and ending with Woburn Abbey, Woburn, Bedfordshire.Many of the stories begin as follows:"At X we were met by the Duke and Duchess...and in a delightfully informal way they told us of the many unexplained happenings at beautiful and dignified X..."The Ghost Society's visits to haunted sites are as much social outings as they are investigations of paranormal phenomenon.

Nevertheless, a reading of this book will send many delightful frissons down the spine with its evocative black-and-white photos and stories of violent deaths and equally violent hauntings.

If you enjoyed the stories in "This Haunted Isle," author Marc Anderson has also published a ghostly quartet of books on the same subject:"Haunted Castles;" "Haunted Inns;" "Haunted Churches & Abbeys of Britain;" and "Phantom Britain."I have a slight preference for Marc Anderson over Peter Underwood because of the color he adds to his narratives.Underwood, alas believes that ghosts "are no longer creatures of the darkness that strike terror into the hearts of those who see them; rather they are gentle shades who return for a variety of reasons...Ghosts have become respectable."

Hah!Phooey!Respectable, indeed!
