FEATURED BOOK
Ghosted!
Exploring the Haunting Reality of Paranormal Encounters
Brian Laythe, James Houran, Neil Dagnall, Kenneth Drinkwater, and Ciaran O’Keeffe
Ghosted! brings years of academic research on hauntings and ghostly experiences into an accessible examination of one of humanity’s most persistent mysteries.
Written by an international team of researchers with perspectives spanning psychology, parapsychology, and anomalous-experience research, the book explores who reports haunting experiences, why these episodes unfold as they do, and what they may tell us about the interaction between people, places, beliefs, and anomalous phenomena.
THE BOOK
A Research-Based Exploration of Hauntings
Ghosted! examines haunting experiences through the lens of the research program that developed the concept of Haunted People Syndrome—a framework for understanding recurrent ghostly episodes as complex experiences shaped by multiple interacting factors...including paranormal ones. Rather than asking readers to choose between simple belief and disbelief, the book examines the evidence, competing interpretations, and recurring patterns found across reports of haunting phenomena.
Research-Based
Grounded in peer-reviewed research examining the psychological, social, environmental, and anomalous dimensions of ghostly experiences.
Accessible
Written for general readers, paranormal investigators, experiencers, and researchers without requiring specialized academic training.
Open Inquiry
Explores conventional and potentially anomalous explanations without assuming in advance what haunting experiences ultimately represent.
