Misty figures disappear, disembodied voices speak, and a creeping uneasiness accosts visitors to the Holy City.

Come explore the shadow world of supernatural Texas with William Edward Syers, one of the Southwest's premier storytellers, whose collection of the Lone Star State's fifty most intriguing tales consumed two full years of on-the-ground research. Originally published as Ghost Stories of Texas, this out-of-print regional classic has been completely revised and updated for a new generation of readers. Come encounter the "The Headless Horseman," "The Phantom on the Mountain," and "The Hounds of Orozimbo." Explore "Terror's Lake," the haunted "McDow Hole," and "Ghosty Branch." Venture within "The Gate" or "The Crypts of Old Waverly" or, for that matter, any of the other chilling tales. Supernatural Texas was the first statewide exploration of dimensions beyond normal comprehension. Its content ranges from centuries-old legends to the here-and-now. You'll encounter specters whose motivations vary as widely as those of everyday folk--to save or warn, to disclose, to prove or disprove something long past, to do penance. And, of course, to seek vengeance! These last are the things to avoid ...except, of course, within the covers of this book. Perhaps you can shrug them off. Perhaps you can discount all fifty awaiting you here. Perhaps. But you won't forget them.
Wales is said to be the most haunted country in the world. Restless spirits roam the ancient land, from the lofty peaks of Snowdonia to the dark depths of the abandoned mines. In Paranormal Wales author Mark Rees takes the reader on a spine-chilling journey to dozens of these locations, which include well-known tourist landmarks and more secluded spots well off the beaten track. These accounts of disembodied voices, supernatural mists and pesky poltergeists range from centuries-old legends to modern-day sightings. Visit the 'oldest pub' in Wales, where more than 180 people are claimed to have been sentenced to death by hanging. Explore the majestic opera house built by a world-famous soprano, who some say continues to perform on her beloved stage from beyond the grave. Spend the night in a seemingly idyllic manor house, where the presence of a Victorian housekeeper is said to reduce unsuspecting guests to tears. Or step back in time at one of the many ivy-strewn castles, where ladies in white patrol the Gothic battlements as tortured screams ring out from the dungeons below. Some of these stories might be familiar, others less so, but they all have one thing in common - they will make you think twice about turning off the light at night. Illustrated throughout, Paranormal Wales will be of spine-tingling interest to those wanting to discover more about the country's haunted and hidden heritage.
Life is a cycle of transitions that many fear and dread. If one is not equipped to handle what's ahead the potential to live a stagnated life is inevitable. This is why "The Road of Transition" was written; to assist the reader in preparing for life's cycle of events, good and bad. The goal is twofold: encourage believers to build their faith by studying the Word of God as well as give the reader a glimpse into what God has in store for them if they are willing and obedient to His Word. The insight contained on the pages of this book will destroy the chains of fear that are the foundation for the stress, anxiety and depression that many believers struggle with when they arrive at the crossroads of change. "The Road of Transition" will teach the reader "How to Make the Transition for Happiness, Peace and Prosperity."
Long considered the best single introduction to the Qabalah for magicians, the third edition of Israel Regardie's A Garden of Pomegranates is now better than ever, thanks to the extensive annotations and new material by Chic Cicero and Sandra Tabatha Cicero. Their work has made A Garden of Pomegranates easier to understand, more complete, and up to date. It now includes over 300 pages of never-before-published information from two Senior Adepts of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn. --Expands Regardie's definitive text into a practical manual for Qabalistic magic --Includes pathworkings and guided visualizations for the 32 Paths of Wisdom --Suggests a course of study for learning the Qabalah and incorporating its teachings into daily life --Shows how to create your own personal Qabalistic mantra using gematria or Hebrew numerology --Includes a technique for Rising on the Planes, so you can explore different Qabalistic worlds --Features a Middle Pillar-style exercise for exploring and activating different parts of the soul --Written by one of the most influential magical teachers of modern times and two of his personal students The Qabalah is the ancient system of Hebrew mysticism that is the foundation of Western magical and esoteric studies. Its primary symbol is the Tree of Life, a diagram that can aid in the study of the nature of the Universe, the essence of God, and the human mind, spirit, and soul. A Garden of Pomegranates is the clearest introductory guide on this subject. When Israel Regardie wrote A Garden of Pomegranates in 1932, he designed it to be a simple yet comprehensive guidebook outlining the complex system of the Qabalah and providing a key to its symbolism. Since then, it has achieved the status of a classic among texts on the Qabalah. The full annotations, critical commentary, and explanatory notes now make this book the ultimate single resource on the subject. The new material, including pathworkings, exercises, daily affirmations, rituals, meditations, and more, not only complement the original, full text included in this edition, but also make A Garden of Pomegranates indispensable for modern magicians.

'People are emotionally drawn to the supernatural. They actively want weird, spooky things to be true . . . Wiseman shows us a higher joy as he deftly skewers the paranormal charlatans, blows away the psychic fog and lets in the clear light of reason.' Richard Dawkins Professor Richard Wiseman is clear about one thing: paranormal phenomena don't exist. But in the same way that the science of space travel transforms our everyday lives, so research into telepathy, fortune-telling and out-of-body experiences produces remarkable insights into our brains, behaviour and beliefs. Paranormality embarks on a wild ghost chase into this new science of the supernatural and is packed with activities that allow you to experience the impossible. So throw away your crystals, ditch your lucky charms and cancel your subscription to Reincarnation Weekly. It is time to discover the real secrets of the paranormal.
