Psychology of A Haunting

By Ashley Beene

Psychology of a Haunting

What does it mean to live haunted - not only by spirits, but by silence, disbelief, and doubt?

In this groundbreaking blend of memoir and psychology, Ashley Beene - drawing from both her personal haunting experiences and her background in psychology - explores the hidden cost of living with the unseen. Building on her earlier works When the Devil Knocks, Through Shattered Glass, and My Demon & I, she shows how hauntings leave marks not only on the spirit, but also on the mind and body.

From the fears of psychic children dismissed as "imaginative," to adults ridiculed, institutionalized, or labeled "crazy" for what they see, Beene reveals how disbelief can wound as deeply as the haunting itself. With compassion and clarity, she examines anxiety, PTSD, sleep paralysis, and somatization - reframing them not as weakness, but as survival responses.

Each chapter weaves lived experience with clinical insight, then closes with reflections, journaling prompts, and affirmations - turning the book into both a companion and a guide.

Psychology of a Haunting is not proof or disproof. It is a survival manual. A lens of compassion for every child, adult, or soul who has ever whispered their truth into the dark and been met with silence.

The haunting may wound you. But it can also awaken you.
