A Classic from James Van Praagh

What did you love best about Ghosts Among Us?

James Van Praagh delivers another awesome book, the stories and messages that James communicates are both life affirming and life changing. Just wish that James was the narrator, but the voice of the narrator is decent.

Thank you James!

What a well written book on the afterlife, how to live within the school we call earth and what an insightful synopsis of what we can look forward to beyond this physical world.

Good Ghostly advice

JVP shares his remarkable personal story and experiences with spirit (Ghosts) in an authentic and practical manner.

Unfortunately, the narrator had none of the spark the author possesses or excitement for his life or work—would have much preferred the author had read his own work.

An explanation of all things unseen: how to protect yourself from spirits and other humans negative feelings.

All things ghost are covered in this, including spirit attachments, poltergeist, angels and psychic attacks like thought forms. The author did an excellent job narrating and took the time to talk about the auric field: then gave many ways to strengthen it through meditation and exercises. He even spoke about reincarnation and how we come back to experience a new life while forgetting everything from the previous life for spiritual growth.

I more than loved this book!

from the very first chapter I was immersed I found it very difficult to stop listening. I found it informative and in a weird way warm and welcoming if that makes sense. it made me understand more of what I thought I already knew. And should light on experiences I've had that I didn't completely understand. All in all it was captivating and educational I have recommended this book to so many people now. Thank you for sharing your gift of experience and knowledge.

So good I listened to it twice.

If you could sum up Ghosts Among Us in three words, what would they be?

This book is very interesting. It is told in many stories but they are stories you can identify with. I like the way it tells the story of James Van Praagh's life. This book gives you a lot to think about.

What about Lloyd James’s performance did you like?

I think Lloyd James sounds a little bit like James Van Praagh. I would have loved to hear James Van Praagh tell the story himself.

Any additional comments?

I just bought another book by James Van Praagh and I hope it is as good.

It's okay...

I really like James Van Praagh. I probably would have enjoyed this book more had I read it myself. The narrator was okay. it seemed as though he read the words not understanding what he was reading.

Informative and eye-opening perspective

What made the experience of listening to Ghosts Among Us the most enjoyable?

I have read similar books on the subject of spirits that surround us and how they may influence our lives. This one hits on important points that directly pertain to daily living without trying to convince or hard sell the concept but to merely "teach". It helps to have a genuine belief in this kind of thing or at the very least, an open mind to the possibility that ghost do exist and are there to guide and assist. I especially enjoyed the chapter on the different levels of spirit guides and also the chapter on how to protect yourself from the daily negativity and evil that exists in the world around us.

Have you listened to any of Lloyd James’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I haven't listened to Lloyd James before, but thoroughly enjoyed his clear, strong voice. It is very easy on the ears.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

It's a book you may want to take in short increments as there is a lot to take in and digest. Especially if your desire is to increase your knowledge and skill at becoming aware of the present and the other dimensions that exist around us. This book also takes the time to illustrate many steps in honing your intuitive gifts.
