Hampton Court Ghost by Jeremy Tyrrell Pdf

Necessity forces us all to make uncomfortable choices. The Professor, operating in such a fringe discipline as Paranormology, bore a greater burden than most. Every decision held the potential to bring his work, and the budding field, into disrepute. Our investigation at Hampton Court taught me that there is more to ghost hunting than simply recording and observing; a proper grasp of politics is just as necessary as the ability to read a thermometer.

Hauntings by Peter Underwood Pdf

In this fascinating account of the best-attested cases of haunting - Hampton Court, the demon drummer of Bedworth, the Wesley ghost, Glamis, Borley Rectory and many others - Britain's foremost ghost-hunter has brought to light a wealth of valuable new evidence. Using the results of his many years of research and personal investigation into ghosts and hauntings, and providing detailed plans and original photographs, Peter Underwood puts forward some exciting and startling theories which will radically change our ideas about these hauntings.Many hauntings can be explained without resorting to the supernatural or the paranormal. The author shows indisputable evidence of 'colouring' in the story of the seventeenth-century drummer of Bedworth, for instance, while the famous visions of Versailles are probed carefully in the light of a startling recent discovery which may be the key to the mystery. Other strange happenings may be attributed to psychosomatic disorders or disturbed personalities, as in the classic Amherst case in Nova Scotia, with its frightening wall-writing threats and curious body-swelling, or the poltergeist-like disturbances at Epworth Parsonage.But there are also some cases of haunting which transcend all known laws, with evidence that tragic and violent happenings, such as those at Hampton Court and Glamis, can leave behind 'something' that is perceived through one of the five senses by certain people days, years, even centuries later. In the best true ghost stories, fact is indeed stranger than fiction.

Haunted Heritage by Michele Hanks Pdf

Haunted Heritage is a fascinating scholarly examination of the dynamics of ghost or paranormal tourism. Michele Hanks explores how this phenomenon allows for the re-articulation and re-configuring of ideas of heritage, epistemic authority, nation, and belonging. Drawing on long-term ethnographic fieldwork, Hanks delves into the anthropological, sociological, political, historical, and cultural factors that drive this burgeoning business. Using York, England, said to be “the most haunted city in the world,” as the base for her research, Hanks focuses on three forms of ghost tourism: ghost walks, commercial ghost hunts, and non-profit ghost hunts and paranormal investigations, comparing the experience of York with other sites of ghost tourism globally. This book will appeal to scholars interested in tourism, heritage, the paranormal, visual cultural, British studies, or popular religion.
