Includes a Ghost-Hunter's Guide to Haunted Sites in Britain.
'The Ghost Handbook' is the ultimate guide to ghosts and hauntings. It examines all the ghostly phenomena, including timeslips, poltergeists, phantom hitchhikers and screaming skulls, and engages in an exciting and original debate about their viability.
Best-selling authors John and Anne Spencer look at whether people have really been able to go through 'doorways' into other times. They ask whether so-called 'ghosts with a purpose' - those who impart information which the recipient is unlikely to have been able to obtain from a 'normal source' - have solved their own murders, and whether relatives who are said to appear and 'say goodbye' at the time of their death are really there.
Are ghosts real or imagined? You can now discover for yourself, because this book uniquely includes a comprehensive listing of haunted sites in the UK. With restaurants, pubs, and hotels all given entries, you can eat, drink and sleep in haunted locations - if you dare.
