Ghosts from Our Past: Both Literally and Figuratively: The Study of the Paranormal

Â· The childhood experiences that inspired Erin and Abbyâ€™s lifelong passion for the scientific study of the paranormal;
Â· The history of ghosts and other supernatural entities, the science that explains their existence, and profiles of the groundbreaking paranormal researchers who have investigated them;
Â· An illustrated guide to Class I through Class VII ghosts;
Â· Helpful sidebars likeÂ â€œA Ghost by Any Other Nameâ€ and â€œEctoplasm Cleanup Tipsâ€;
Â· Updates including â€œThe Ghostbustersâ€™ Arsenalâ€ by Jillian Holtzmann and â€œHaunted Historyâ€ by Patty Tolan;
Â· A new Ghostbusting Resources appendix, featuring the â€œParanormal Quickstart Guideâ€, â€œIs It a Ghost? A Handy Quizâ€, â€œA Supernatural Stakeout Journalâ€, â€œThe Devilâ€™s Dictionary: Paraterminology You Need to Knowâ€; and more.
