Not the best but not the worst book on the paranormal. A Welsh Vicar tells tales of his experiences with the paranormal, from a dying mother who introduces him to her deceased son who comes to take her to the other side to a non-conventional ghost who likes to perform for parties. With him being Welsh some of the names and places were a bit strange to me, but that was to be expected. Certainly an entertaining read but the stories mostly date back to the 50-70's so similar to early books by Hans Holzer in that regard. Certainly worth a read. ( )

The author comes across as rather naieve in his view of spiritualists, but does have some very interesting stories to relate. The scariest one is the gypsy funeral.
I'm generally of the view that those who purport to communicate with paranormal entities are deceivers preying on distressed people and this book does nothing to change my mind although this is the author's intention. I have been rereading this book and checking facts. And these need checking as the author often makes mistakes. For example according to Wikipedia Helen Duncan died at home and had a few convictions for fraud. ( )
