This book is the first and only book that I have aquired about the non fiction aspect of the paranormal. I thought the writing was great and it opened up so many doors to learning and identifying different paranormal aspects in this world. Its great to have in a book collection just as what it is... a reference book. (

This is one of those definitive texts for all paranormal enthusiasts. While not all entries are in-depth, and there is a certain level of bias in some...its definitely an informative tome with lots of great information. Anyone from a paranormal novice to a seasoned researcher can find something of value within. And of course, anything by Rosemary Ellen Guiley is sure to be well-researched and interesting!

If you thought you knew everything about Ghosts and Spirits, read this first. Good read on long trips. Ghosts & Spirits from A to Z. Very informative. (

I read this book cover to cover and found that, although it was passable, it wasn't great. The book is overly simplistic and has a definite bias. It's obvious, for example, that Ms. Guiley believes the Lutzes of Amityville Horror fame to be cheap con-artists out to make a quick buck. This is probably true, but an encyclopedia that dresses up the author's personal opinion as fact is not worthy of the name. There was plenty of good information here and I would recommend it to any ghost-hunter/enthusiast, but don't believe everything Guilley says. ;) (
