Haunted Encounters: Ghost Stories from Around the World is an excellent book consisting of many true personal accounts of ghost encounters. Some stories are actually rather humorous, some feature ghosts that can be considered as benevolent, and some are just plain freaky.

There are tons of people (Some have writing experience, most don't) that contributed to this book. As a result, there are stories about different sorts of ghost encounters. For example, I see few similarities between The Silent Man and Ghost Walk!

Most of the stories aren't that frightening. One of them, however, is pure nightmare material: The Green Lady.

This is, overall, a great book to read, though children should not read it, as it would be quite horrific for young people to read.

But if you're old enough and have an interest in the paranormal, definitely give it a try!

I must admit to being a little biased, in this review, as one of my own encounters of realms beyond the tangible, is included in this book. (My story tells of buying a house,on the beautiful coast of Cornwall... complete with a Curse, at no extra charge).
But this recently published,compilation of stories, is gathered from "regular" peoples experiencies with supernatural or un-explained events.
The stories describe how they encountered , dealt with and incorporated another dimension into their lives.

Some of the stories are slightly humourous. All of the storytellers challenge our perceptions of what is normal and rational.

The stories are gathered from all over the world and from people who are not traditional "ghosthunters."
Hopefully this book will absorb and entrance you...As there is currently, far too much black and white reality in todays world.
This book will be a welcome introduction to a different dimension . No conspiracies or cover ups here!
