Are ghosts real? Are there truly haunted places, only haunted people, or both? And how can we know? Taking neither a credulous nor a dismissive approach, this first-of-its-kind book solves those perplexing mysteries and more--even answering the question of why we care so very much.
Putting aside purely romantic tales, this book examines the actual evidence for ghosts--from eyewitness accounts to mediumistic productions (such as diaphanous forms materializing in dim light), spirit photographs, ghost-detection phenomena, and even CSI-type trace evidence. Offering numerous exciting case studies, this book engages in serious investigation rather than breathless mystifying. Pseudoscience, folk legends, and outright hoaxes are challenged and exposed, while the historical, cultural, and scientific aspects of ghost experiences and haunting reports are carefully explored.
The author--the world's only professional paranormal investigator--brings his skills as a stage magician, private detective, folklorist, and forensic science writer to bear on a topic that demands serious study.

Ghosts, psychics, communicating with the dead, UFOs, angels, ESP, astrology: These and other astounding phenomena are accepted as valid by a substantial proportion of the public.

And what does expressing such beliefs mean for the lives of those who do? Unlike many books on the paranormal, which are focused on debunking or verifying such beliefs, this author is interested in explaining paranormal belief as a sociological phenomenon: Who believes, why, and with what consequences?

At a young age, Heather saw things that the human eyes had learned to overlook. One night over dinner at the tender age of five, she was telling her family about a man she had seen in her room the night before. Her father informed her that this was not just any man, but her grandfather who had died some thirty years earlier. These visits from the other side became the norm in the coming years. She soon learned her grandfather had the gift of being a psychic/medium and that they would share this gift. In A Bang into Gentleness, Heather discusses how she was introduced and gradually developed her intuition and ability to connect with spirits on the other side. She talks about following her own path to becoming a medium, intuitive counselor, and reiki master. Heathers journey was not always an easy one, and this book takes the reader through the ups and downs of growing up psychic, and reaching her own enlightenment; learning about mindfulness, compassion, and appreciation, and most importantly finding the divine power within.
