 Basic Book for Beginners... September 17, 2008
As a person very interested in the paranormal field, I really enjoyed reading this book. In fact, I have now read it twice.
The ghost stories scattered through out kept the book exciting as the technical jargon would get a little tiresome if that was the only element of the book.
I was disappointed that more space and detail was not devoted to the actual equipment. It would be interesting to know more about why certain pieces worked well in spirit investigations by explaining more of the scientific side. Also, I would have liked to have seen more equipment discussed (or dismissed and the reasons why) such as the EMF K2 meter and thermal imaging cameras.
As a person that leans heavily to the side of scientific investigations and totally dismisses the physic "impression" aspect, I would be interested in hearing an actual physicist's take on what type of equipment might be utilized although I doubt that a physicist would place their name and reputation beside such an endeavor.
Anyway, all in all, this is a good book written by a true believer. I highly recommend it. Michael L. Gooch, Author of Wingtips with Spurs
 Very Informative ghosthunting guide April 1, 2008
This is a great book,especially for the beginner, but also some good information overlooked sometimes by the advanced. It is clear, straightforward, and easy to understand and put into practice. If you are interested in the paranormal I recommend it as a starting place.

A very basic book, seems to be a promotional tool for certain tours, if this type of book is your first read it will serve a purpose.

I bought several books at once on this subject. This is by far the best in the bunch. It is one I can use at a later date for reference and the detailed pages/checkilsts in the back are an added bonus. Thanks!
Just what it says... July 16, 2007

A slim book, easy to carry, with all the basic information and tips you need to investigate hauntings and ghosts. What to ask at interviews, what to bring, how to use the equipment, what language and terms to use, when to stay, and when to fold and run. This is as basic and bare bones as it can get, folks. Within the 118 pages Richard Southall tells you the facts of what you need, what you may wish to have and what resources are out there to help you. Then you are on your own folks, like it or not.
An amazing book, even if you don't plan to hunt ghosts or not.
