A Brief Guide to Ghost Hunting

Not since the founding of The Ghost Club in 1862 has ghost hunting been so
popular . . .

In this comprehensive guide, Dr Leo Ruickbie explains in compelling detail how to hunt ghosts: from evaluating an initial report and choosing the right equipment to investigating and correctly identifying the phenomena. He reveals the best places to look for ghosts, different methods for contacting the spirit world, and how paranormal activity may be explained - also, crucially, how to survive an encounter.

Drawing on 130 years of research, he uncovers the most intriguing ghost stories, while also discovering the views, motivations and experiences of contemporary ghost hunters in the first survey of its kind. He analyses close to 1, 000 reported phenomena from hundreds of locations and looks at the results of over 700 investigations into hauntings.
