Summary: Fluffy but fun.
Comment: If you are looking for ghost investigations, haunted sites to inspect, stories with a lot of depth, or just some really frightening ghost stories, this is not the book for you. These are stories submitted to USA Today by its readers and they have crammed 100 stories into a little over 200 pages so it is obvious that most of these stories are less than two pages long. For the most part these are "When I was a little girl..." or, "One night when I was alone in the house..." stories. In other words, the stories are short and sweet and straight to the point. A few of these writers had indeed done some research and found out just why the ghost might have been there or who it might have been, but not many.
On the other hand this is a fun book and I enjoyed it immensely. The stories generally come straight from the eyewitnesses and have the definite sound of truth. Most of the stories try to be scary, but aren't really, except for the story of the secret door. That one was indeed rather eerie and the best chapter by far is the one titled Hauntings, which contained the secret door story. Some of the stories never tried to be scary but were quite touching. They say love never dies and some of these stories bring that to mind. You really won't learn much from this book but you will have a blast reading it. For the serious student of the paranormal this book will be a let down but for the rest of us who like good ghost stories it's a winner.

Summary: I see dead people...yes!
Comment: After reading many books by several empowering authors such as Betty Eadie, John Edward, Sylvia Browne, and Tiffany Snow, that I am still reading, my life has opened up to me in such a compelling and wonderful way. This new book is well written, and thought provoking. There are great transforming authors, who shift the consciousness of humankind in a way never known before, and have the courage to reveal their paranormal experiences. "I never believed" is one of these.

Summary: Haunting, but not Scary
Comment: This book was one that I had seen advertised for quite a while, so I finally decided to order it. When i received it, I thought that I would be getting a collection of terrifying stories and encounters. What I got instead was a collection on normal citizens encounters, in their own words. This was much more than I was expecting.
Some of the stories left me looking over my shoulder at each sound, while some of them left me a little disappointed. All in all, this was a great book, and I recommend it to everyone. The fact that there were this many people that were willing to come forward to a nationwide publication and tell their story made me feel that the world of the unknown will someday be more widely accepted.
