An Illustrated History of Ghosts cover

A bump in the night, the crack of floorboards and the uneasy coldness of a room...Signs we might attribute to a ghostly presence.

Through the decades, investigators and mediums have dedicated themselves to the task of reaching through the veil and contacting the other side. Whether ghosts are the souls of the dead, windows in time or interdimensional beings, cultures through the ages have responded with fear and fascination to their horrific haunts and eerie appearances. This illustrative study will take you through the history and culture of ghosts.

A charmingly illustrated introduction to all things ghostly and unexplained. * Jen Vos and Cate Reed of This Podcast is Haunted *
Really beautiful illustrations, some ghosty info I didn't know and it's so funny too. -- Cressida Mclaughlin, author of The Cornish Cream Tea Holiday series
An Illustrated History would make an excellent late (or early) Christmas present with which to indoctrinate the young into fortean ways (.) an excellent "all ages" work of reference. -- The Fortean Times
