Historic Ghosts and Ghost Hunters (Illustrated)

By: H Addington Bruce

Fully illustrated. From the famed Devils of Loudon to the workings of John Dee, and from Lurancy Vennum to Swedenborg, "Historic Ghosts and Ghost Hunters" is a fine collection of strange lore related to spirits, hauntings, strange legal cases, and spiritual dabbling. It is a skeptical work, and relates these cases in their historical context with great accuracy, with the writer attempting at times to debunk the tales being told and their prior explanations, which of course tended towards the superstitious. It mixes this with a semi-rationalized endorsement of investigations into the supermundane, by various methods, especially within the realm of psychology and the application of hypnotism, telepathy, and so forth, within a scientific context. It is a truly valuable collection of paranormal tales for the folklore lover.
