Publisher's summary

Ghosts have fascinated and haunted us for millennia. They appear in our campfire tales, films, books, and television shows, as well as in our dreams and nightmares. Despite widespread belief in spirits and the popularity of television ghost-hunting shows, scientific evidence for them remains elusive. Investigating Ghosts is the first audiobook to examine the history and techniques of ghost hunting from folkloric, scientific, and sociocultural perspectives.

No mere armchair scholar, author Benjamin Radford's audiobook is based on nearly 20 years of firsthand science-based investigations and research. Investigating Ghosts will entertain and educate skeptics and true believers alike, separating fact from fiction about this timeless mystery.

Topics include:

  1. Guidelines for scientifically investigating ghost reports
  2. Analyzing photographic, audio, and video evidence
  3. Ghost hunting equipment: what works, what doesn't, and why
  4. In-depth case studies of solved ghost investigations
  5. Understanding the psychology of ghost experiences

Great book, but terrible audio

Anything great about this audiobook comes from Radford’s words and not the production. Listening to him stumble over words and flipping the pages of his book gets on your nerves, though I tried my best to overlook this cause what he was talking about was so fascinating. That is until, ironically, the part about EVPs, when the audio started cutting out what Radford was saying, leaving us with unfinished sentences. I really hope this audiobook gets a re-recording, cause it’s worth it.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
