Book Description
That unexpected thud in the middle of the night, that lone blinking light, the sudden hiss in the eerie quiet, when goosebumps spike and a chill runs down your spine … is the fear unnecessary or should we be scared … very, very scared? Spirits, hauntings, ghosts, demons—some believe in them, some don’t. Some have even experienced them, some have safeguarded themselves with science. But whichever category you may fall into, one thing is certain—none of us fully understand the concept. Shishir Kumar, founder president and lead investigator of Team Pentacle, India’s most sought-after paranormal research organization, brings to you a handbook with the key to sense, recognize, grasp and accept the unknown. Using a blended approach of scientific methods and religious beliefs, this book explains the true nature of spirits and types of sightings. Departing from the tradition of myths and chants, this book intelligently humanizes the concept and arms the reader with the requisite knowledge to unravel sounds and shadows which seem to have no source. It utilizes New Age tools like Electronic Voice Phenomena and digital cameras for identifying and resolving spirit possessions and familiar sources like Ouija boards for communicating with them. The author provides a comprehensive, engaging and easy-to-follow guidebook for quenching those chills we are all too familiar with but so far have been unequipped to deal with. The book bridges the gap between the human and the ethereal which helps in driving out the fear, and brings into focus the need to act confidently and fearlessly. So, spooked or stoked, let’s unravel the mystery!

Dark World, 2nd Edition
Author: Zak Bagans
Publisher: Victory Belt Publishing
ISBN: 1628601698
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
It's easy to say ghosts exist or don't exist. Anyone can do that. Trying to figure out the why or what is a different story. Paranormal investigator Zak Bagans, host of the popular Travel Channel series Ghost Adventures, pulls from his years of experience with paranormal activities and unexplained phenomena to provide an evenhanded look at a divisive subject. In Dark World, Zak does his best to find and share answers to the phenomena that people encounter. He wants you to experience a haunting through his eyes: to feel what it's like to be scared, freaked out, pushed, cold, sluggish, whispered-at, and touched by an ethereal being or attacked by a demonic spirit. But beyond simply experiencing these events, Zak is looking for the reasons behind them, searching for answers to the unanswered questions. Addressing all the major issues and theories of the field in an impartial way, Dark World is a must read for paranormal enthusiasts, those who don't believe, and anyone who's ever wondered about things that go bump in the night.

Pages : 0
Book Description
Apparitions, Hauntings and Poltergeists - Ghosts - Have Fascinated philosophers and scientists for millennia. Parapsychologists have made significant inroads into understanding what is really going on. Hauntings seem to be a kind of recording that becomes attached to a place or object and keeps replaying. Poltergeist is a kind of paranormal stress relief valve. Dubbed noisy ghosts, poltergeists are actually the manifestation of rage or another intense emotion of an "agent" who is often, but not always, a teenager.

ESP, Hauntings and Poltergeists
Author: Loyd Auerbach
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781539131663
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 348
Book Description
This is a 30th Anniversary reprinting of a book that has been lauded by Newsweek and cited by numerous people -- from students of parapsychology to ghost hunters to celebrity paranormal investigators -- as the book that got them first interested and started on their paranormal journeys and studies. ESP, Hauntings and Poltergeists, first published in 1986, is reprinted with minor changes and minimal updates [Note that the authors subsequent books have much of the update material already]. Writing the book during the height of the (now-defunct) accredited Master's degree program at John F. Kennedy University in the San Francisco Bay Area, parapsychologist Loyd Auerbach put together a true handbook for those interested in all forms of psychic phenomena and experiences, with a eye towards investigation of the paranormal (apparitions, hauntings and poltergeists). The material is presented in four sections with appendices. Section One is a "handbook" providing basic foundation knowledge of parapsychology and psychical research, psychic phenomena and experiences, and even the skeptical viewpoint. Section Two takes a look at Pop Culture -- from TV and film to science fiction and comic books -- and news and reality TV coverage of the topics. Section Three is a casebook of sorts, covering famous cases of hauntings (including an expose of the Amityville Horror case) as well as cases investigated by some of Auerbach's colleagues (and his own very first case). Section Four is the handbook for the would-be paranormal investigator / ghost hunter. It's a step by step manual that contradicts so much of what has been altered by television producers for reality TV. Coming from the 100+ years of field investigation of the paranormal by his predecessors, colleagues, and his own experience, this common sense guide will enable people to truly investigate, understand, and generally resolve ghostly issues. Honest and direct, even if you think you know how to investigate, this section alone will enlighten you in ways you may not have imagined. Finally, the Appendices provide resources for any and all interested in the topics covered by the book. There are tools for the investigator in Appendix A. Appendix B provides an updated (2016) list of organizations and resources, a "Who Ya Gonna Call?" directory, as well as the questions you should ask to make sure the ghost hunters or parapsychologists you contact actually are trained or educated and know what they're talking about (and know what they're doing). Additional suggestions for furthering your education in Parapsychology and the paranormal is included in this section. Appendix C provides a long list of suggested reading materials. There have been a few additional more recent titles added to this appendix (2016) as a starting point for the 21st century. Once you read this book, you'll have a real understanding of what the real scientific researchers and investigators have been doing since the 19th century start of the field, how the best investigations are conducted, what parapsychologists generally think of apparitions, hauntings, and poltergeists, and so much more!
