    About this ebook

    Ghost encounters are happening everyday to people everywhere, and the events prove that we are not alone. When people encounter what they perceive to be a ghost or spirit, their lives are forever changed. The ultimate question—Is there life after death?—has just been answered for them. Ghosts cross every culture and continent, and the belief in their existence is on the rise.

    Our Haunted Lives features the stories of dozens of people who have witnessed the supernatural firsthand in their homes, at work, and in numerous other locations and explores the profound nature of ghosts and spirits. Through personal interviews, the author captures the many different facets of the experience—the touching, where people come in contact with a loved one who's passed on; the funny, where pranks are played or peculiar disembodied sounds are heard; and the frightening, where people still feel shaken by what they saw, heard, and felt. Ghosts are unbiased—they appear to people from all walks of life, ages, cultures, and religious backgrounds.

    Our Haunted Lives features accounts from famous hauntings, such as an extensive interview with George Lutz—the man whose experiences with the paranormal in Amityville, Long Island, launched debates, books, and movies. You'll hear from police officers who were the first on the scene after a homeowner reported a break-in, only to find the disturbance wasn’t caused by someone living. Doctors who had a brush with the supernatural after losing a patient on the operating table will speak about the very emotional and profound events they witnessed. No, we are not alone.

      This was a real good collection of true paranormal stories. It was a different type of paranormal read as the author interviews the people and they give their account of what happened to them. I really enjoyed all the stories and some of them are a bit creepy. The stories cover just about everything from ghost sightings to out of body experiences. Giving it four stars for keeping me entertained.

      Collection of haunted house and ghost stories. This is different than most others that you'll find on the market now days. This is all interviews with the people that have had encounters with the supernatural. Broken into a few different parts; haunted houses, ghosts of people we know, ghosts on the job, haunted public locations and a section on ghost hunters.
