Lastly, the Parapsychological Theory presupposes that some paranormal activities are involved. Sometimes, witnesses to apparitions acquire knowledge about a particular location that they could not have otherwise known or perceived. The theory also suggests that reported sounds are sometimes genuine. The book has numerous pictures depicting both humans and spooky shadows of ghosts in the background.

There are a number of theories about ghosts. For instance, ghosts are earthbound spirits of the deceased. We know from the first law of thermodynamics that energy does not cease to exist rather it changes form from system to system, i.e. changes form from human to an aura. Buddhism explains various levels of the aura and this concept makes sense for the afterlife.

Another theory suggests that ghosts and apparitions are created from electricity or electromagnetic radiation. Similarly, ghosts can be a playback of energy or stored human emotion that was once present at the location. For instance, Gettysburg is the scene of one of the greatest battles in history with thousands of casualties and dismemberments. The Farnsworth House Inn in Gettysburg is said to be haunted by no fewer than 14 ghosts, making it the seventh most haunted inn here in the United States.

to formulate a more reasoned opinion on whether or not ghosts exist in any realm. There are plenty of spooky pictures throughout. The presentation is engaging with all sorts of theories espoused, with each having a rational explanation. Choose the best explanation for your own domain of experience. Some of us have experienced encounters with the dead, like a deep chill passing through our bodies at the time of death of a loved one.

“Life is infinitely stranger than anything which the mind of man could invent. We would not dare to conceive the things which are really mere commonplaces of existence. If we could fly out of that window hand in hand, hover over this great city, gently remove the roofs, and and peep in at the queer things which are going on, the strange coincidences, the plannings, the cross-purposes, the wonderful chains of events, working through generations, and leading to the most outre results, it would make all fiction with its conventionalities and foreseen conclusions most stale and unprofitable.”- Arthur Conan Doyle

Interest in ghosts and paranormal investigations continue to be on the rise in a resurgence of the topic similar to the late 1800′s and early 1900′s where luminaries including Sir Arthur Conan Doyle had great interest in spiritualism and the spirit world in general. The main difference now is the technology available to capture EVP recordings of haunting sounds and spirit communication as well as the advances in video and photography. This has led to mixed results on what constitutes proof of ghosts, spirits and apparitions. The biggest debate ongoing may be with the orbs captured on photos. Digital photography has provided a plethora of orb photos, and the answers are not clear as to which orb photos are reflections of light from other sources or which may be a spirit caught on film.

In Exposed, Uncovered, and Declassified: Ghosts, Spirits and Hauntings (New Page Books 2011) co-editors Michael Pye and Kirsten Dalley gather some of the world’s experts on the paranormal and ask them each to share what they have uncovered during their years of investigating haunted sites and psi phenomena.

Each author contributed a chapter based on their expertise including Michelle Belanger’s coverage of Canadian investigators who tried to create a spirit; Loyd Auerbach’s information on the field of parapsychology; Nick Redfern’s research on animal ghost apparitions; Joshua Warren’s photographic evidence of ghosts; Andrew Nichol’s study of ESP and haunted houses; Raymond Buckland’s tips on how to talk to ghosts; Dr. Bob Curran’s research on the connections between poltergeists and humans; and Marie Jones’s exploration of alternative theories on ghostly apparitions.
