Vampires: All Together Dead by Charlaine Harris.
Werewolves: From Dead to Worse by Charlaine Harris.
Ghosts or Wizards/Witches: Charlie St. Cloud by Ben Sherwood
Although the blurb on the Charlie St Cloud homepage doesn't say so, there are some ghosts in the book.
Optional: What's your favorite paranormal creature? Why is it your favorite?
Werewolves are my favourite. In all the books I have read that have werewolves, they are always tall, dark and handsome. Far sexier than the vamps. lol

That can be debated. But you are right. All the 'wolves I've read about have been pretty good looking.. I'll have to compare the two soon :)
hahaha Maybe its just that tall, dark and handsome have always been my type of guy and the movie casting is always like that for the wolves.I will have to say Eric the Viking in the Sookie books and TV show is very handomse but I'd take Alcide or Sam over him anyday.
Yeah it is now that I think about it!And I've only read the first book of that series, so I won't make a comment yet haha.
Ive read 8 so far and seen up to Season 4.Im now onto watching Vampire diaries and getting the books from the library soon.
Cools! I don't watch the TV show, because I just never have time to even look at my TV. But I do want to read the VD series sometime soon.
