Title: Hauntings & Poltergeists: A Ghost Hunter's Guide
Author: Loyd Auerbach
Published Year: 2004
Pages: 191
Genre: Metaphysics/Unexplained Phenomena
After reading this book, I do agree with it being a starter ghost hunter's guide. Just a step in the right direction on ghost hunting, but definitely not a source for all things ghost hunting. The author takes the reader through a series of chapters that explain different aspects of ghosts. Developing a foundation with this information should be extremely important just as any other subject you may decide to pursue. He relates personal stories of ghost hunting as well so it is not too much of a technical book. I always have liked educational books that include actual examples in real life, it brings the material to life and makes it more believable.
In addition to the classifications of ghosts and to a lesser extent poltergeists he also brings in good information on what a ghost hunter should take with them as well as what types of things to look for and ask about to witnesses.
Like I mentioned earlier, it is a good starting point for someone just starting out in ghost hunting, but as you become more experienced and more technical, other sources will be more helpful in that aspect.
