Reviews

[Debs]

Beautiful illustrations by Luis Rey! Useful how each case is constrained to a single or double page. Again, frustrating to find so few statistics on hauntings and the predominant focus on the English-speaking Western world, which itself would culturally limit the range of responses to hauntings or at least their reportings. First published in 1997, so understandably little mention of scientific investigation or noetic sciences. Good little reference book to keep in one’s library, suitable for all ages! Remember, the preternatural is just science we haven’t understood yet.
