John Russell has been a highly regarded professional psychic for almost fifty years, reading for thousands of clients in over thirty countries around the world. As a paranormal investigator, he has physically experienced over eight hundred paranormal manifestations. A Knock in the Attic: True Ghost Stories & Other Spine-chilling Paranormal Adventures is his story, not only about his psychic awakening and the abundance of mind-blowing otherworldly confrontations he's experienced but also about the point at which he lost his faith and gave up on himself, his psychic gifts, and the beings on the Other Side. But they didn't give up on him. A prequel of sorts to Russell's first book, Riding with Ghosts, Angels, and the Spirits of the Dead, A Knock in the Attic begins with his first paranormal experience when he was five years old and follows the highlights of his development as a psychic and paranormal investigator into adulthood, explaining what it's like to grow up psychic, to be inundated with real spiritual experiences, and, yes, sometimes even to question your spiritual gifts and the guidance from the Other Side.
