What happens when we die? Ghost stories have always offered one possible answer to that question. Tales of encounters with the dead go back centuries, and possess too many common characteristics to dismiss. Similar accounts of phantom ships, poltergeists and haunted houses recur again and again, as do a variety of spirits, some without bodies, others hurling objects, and still more with multiple personalities. You might reconsider whether death really is the end of consciousness. 176 pages, 10 b/w illus., 5 1/8 x 7 3/4.

Don't let this book fool you with its catchy title and fascinating stories: Colin Wilson has done some excellent academic research into the nature of ghosts. The ghosts are mostly British, with some American tales as well, but you'll enjoy the professional insights Mr. Wilson provides, as much as the page-turning stories.
