Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I let the fear aside, I faced the ghosts that I loaded for many years, I got brave going over the major and complicated passages of my life from childhood until my first experiences of encounters with older age, I wanted to transfer to paper everything that brought me back memories, before my eyes get tired more than are now and before my memory refuses to remember and my conscience distorts the reality. In these pages is no intention of any teaching, I personally learned from my own stories, of my own achievements and failures but it was also necessary to mix my memories with experience over the years that life has given me. Obviously there are situations that I would not repeat and others that I would like to have the opportunity to return to the past to remedy them, as it is impossible to do one or the other I should accept my past as it is and without regrets. Passages that I rescued and snatch not exempt of consequences from the depths of my heart and conscience, passages that I wanted and promised a day to forget, what obviously I did not, perhaps for good. Not everything on these pages is full of joy or total sadness, it is simply life. Thanks to those who are and also, were part of my memories and experiences. Writing those passages I wanted to also involve my wife and my children, mainly in gratitude for all the happiness, help, understanding, passion and tolerance that I have received from them. For my own sanity I have been cautious not to distort reality, I only mixed objectivity with some touches of fantasy by the simple fact of protecting people who were and are close to me, to avoid running over to those who cannot defend themselves and they will never know that they are part of a story, my story. They will have to respond or be answered, each one according to their own actions, I have not tried to judge or be judged either accuser or accused. My intention has been to just remember and stamping my comments for the moment lived, stage by stage with the mentality of the passing of the years. Evidently not everything regarding my life is here, it would have been tedious, slow and tiring adventures to write and full of secrets that I would have not wanted to share. I do not seek advice on what I should have done or I should stop doing nor giving advice to any of the people named here, the reason why these pages do not contain proper names with the exception of a couple of them. We are all loaded up with secrets and sins and facing them is the true value of life. Forgiveness, when it exists, must be sincere and without conditions. I hope, a day be forgiven by those with whom I acted unjustly.

Book excerpt: ...... perhaps I never sensed everything that we had really lost because we always looked around us, there were many who had lost more than us, there were many who had lost everything and others who had lost nothing but were no longer among us ...... my head was spinning again, I felt a very strong knock at the back of my head, again lights spun incessantly around me and the tires squeal against the pavement but now with a smell very strange, a warm smell of rubber and blood. Minutes, seconds or fractions of seconds, I don't know, it seemed an eternity and from one moment to another everything was calm, just the smell was still in the air .....

For Dubric Bryerly, head of security at Castle Faldorrah, saving lives has become a matter of saving his sanity. A silent killer is afoot, savagely mutilating servant girls and leaving behind no clues and no witnesses—except the gruesome ghosts of the victims. Ghosts that only Dubric can see. Caught in the eye of the grisly storm is Nella, a linen maid working to free herself from a dark past—if she can survive an invisible killer’ s rampage. But with the death toll rising and Nella under the protective wing of a man who may be a prime suspect, Dubric must resort to unconventional methods. With the future of Faldorrah and countless lives at stake, including his own, he can’t afford to be wrong. And if he’s right, the entire kingdom could be thrust into war.

Book excerpt: WINNER OF THE 2015 BRAM STOKER AWARD FOR SUPERIOR ACHIEVEMENT IN A NOVEL A chilling thriller that brilliantly blends psychological suspense and supernatural horror, reminiscent of Stephen King's The Shining, Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House, and William Peter Blatty's The Exorcist. The lives of the Barretts, a normal suburban New England family, are torn apart when fourteen-year-old Marjorie begins to display signs of acute schizophrenia. To her parents’ despair, the doctors are unable to stop Marjorie’s descent into madness. As their stable home devolves into a house of horrors, they reluctantly turn to a local Catholic priest for help. Father Wanderly suggests an exorcism; he believes the vulnerable teenager is the victim of demonic possession. He also contacts a production company that is eager to document the Barretts’ plight. With John, Marjorie’s father, out of work for more than a year and the medical bills looming, the family agrees to be filmed, and soon find themselves the unwitting stars of The Possession, a hit reality television show. When events in the Barrett household explode in tragedy, the show and the shocking incidents it captures become the stuff of urban legend. Fifteen years later, a bestselling writer interviews Marjorie’s younger sister, Merry. As she recalls those long ago events that took place when she was just eight years old, long-buried secrets and painful memories that clash with what was broadcast on television begin to surface—and a mind-bending tale of psychological horror is unleashed, raising vexing questions about memory and reality, science and religion, and the very nature of evil.

Book Synopsis The Science of Ghosts by : Joe Nickell
Download or read book The Science of Ghosts written by Joe Nickell and published by Prometheus Books. This book was released on 2012-07-03 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Noyes makes history accessible and irresistible . . . Excellent.”* A century ago, the curious idea that spirits not only survive death but can be contacted on the “other side” was widespread. Psychic mediums led countless séances, claiming to connect the grieving with their lost relations through everything from frenzied trance writing to sticky expulsions of ectoplasm. The craze caught Harry Houdini’s attention. Well-known by then as most renowned magician and escape artist, he began to investigate these spiritual phenomena. Are ghosts real? Can we communicate with them? Catch them in photographs? Or are all mediums “flim-flammers,” employing tricks and illusions like Houdini himself? Peopled with odd and fascinating characters, Houdini’s gripping quest will excite readers’ universal wonderment with life, death, and the possibility of the Beyond. *School Library Journal, starred review of Ten Days a Madwoman

Book Synopsis Ghost in the Stalks by : Kimberly Nguyen
Download or read book Ghost in the Stalks written by Kimberly Nguyen and published by . This book was released on 2019-11-04 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In her new earth-shattering poetry collection, Kimberly boldly confronts identity, history, politics, and language at the intersections of colonialism, intergenerational trauma, and conflict. The poems are both visually stunning and form-defying, breathing life into language that is delightfully haunting and becomes the "ghosts in the stalks". The poems' etymological focus and brave willingness to return to the source of trauma redefines and re-appropriates what it means to return to one's roots and forces the dead past into a painful present.
