A for effort

I stumbled onto this book after seeing a cheesy paranormal show on tv. The audiobook is very amateurish, but the narrator had a pleasant London whine and it was only a couple of bucks, and very short, so I bought it.

The introduction doesn't define the book well, but in short order I realized the narrator is reading a series of stories *possibly* emailed to, or just collected by, the author via the Internet. Each story is given a number (there are 16) and a date. Date of occurrence? Of submission? Of post? All are expressed in the first person, all seem to have been written by young men (one of whom says he is writing on behalf of his mum), and all use very similar language and descriptions. The dates progress at the same pace the interactions get more exciting.

In other words, while the stories of "I saw a ghost" are interesting, they are not convincing. Why not say, "Submitted by Ryan W on 24 September 2015", or "From a shopkeeper in Rugeley, via email"?

Brickley doesn't tell his own story, either, only saying, "a person close to me saw it". So one needs to be very gullible or seeking reinforcement for their own sighting to be convinced.
