The Ghost Hunter's Strangest Cases


Book Description

A famed ghost hunter shares real-life stories of people across America sharing their homes with ghosts and other supernatural encounters. This fascinating collection contains more than twenty astounding yet true stories about psychic occurrences and uncanny phenomena. With the aid of reputable psychics, famed “ghost hunter” Hans Holzer has researched these cases, interviewing numerous ordinary people who share their days and nights with spectral visitors, both friendly and hostile. In The Ghost Hunter’s Strangest Cases, Dr. Holzer reopens his files to unfold the most striking cases of people in various walks of life who suddenly, without warning, crossed paths with the Unknown. Before their paranormal encounters, most of the witnesses interviewed herein knew little or nothing about ghosts; none of them sought out these strange visitations. The true stories in this book come from all corners of this country—from New England, to our nation’s capital, to deep in the heart of the South, and all the way to California—these inquiring people went to Holzer for advice, often because they could not obtain satisfactory counsel from ordinary sources, such as psychologists or psychiatrists.
