Description:
Whether it's chain-rattling apparitions on the stairs of old English estates, weeping statues of the Virgin Mary, or urban legends like the Phantom Hitchhiker -- history shows that living and breathing human beings have been as intent on seeking out the undead as they've been on seeking out us! The Complete Idiot's Guide to Ghosts and Hauntings is a fun and fascinating chronicle of that mutual love affair through the centuries, with famous afterlife stories in: ancient Greece and Rome; the Far East; the Middle Ages in Europe; the spooky castles of England and Scotland; and incredible contemporary tales in North America. The book even delves into today's real-life ghostbusters who are aided by high-tech photography and audio recording. Along the way, readers learn about all things ghoulish and ghostly in literature, theater, film, and elsewhere, with plenty, of shrieking skulls, haunted castles, table-tipping, and disembodied voices thrown in for good measure. There's even a section where readers can learn how to put together their own sure-to-scare haunted house!
