The Enigma of Borley Rectory

by Ivan Banks

Was the haunting of Borley Rectory caused by fraud? Did the late Harry Price, one of Britain's leading psychic researchers, really fake phenomena? Who was murdered in the Rectory, and is the mysterious ghostly nun connected with one of England's leading families? Ten years' research reveals fascinating, intriguing and controversial new material relating to the identity of the phantoms in the house, the connection with Marianne Foyster and the disastrous fire which destroyed Britain's Most Haunted House. "... one of the most compelling historical and investigative books about Borley yet."

The best book so far I have read so far on the matter, the late Ivan Banks researched everything down to the last letter the diagrams and floorplans are also the best I have seen .

Very well researched and extremely thorough but seems to suffer from a curiously archaic writing style coupled with a great deal of conjecture about the identities of the ghosts. I particularly found the habit of including multiple lists throughout a bit odd. It is also arranged in quite a peculiar way. It made an interesting read though.

This is the GO-TO book for all research on the Borley Rectory haunting, a famous case in England. A must have for the paranormal book collectors. Technical but still very frightening because it all happened!!

Hokum. But interesting hokum. What really happened? I doubt we will ever know.
