Product Description
In How to Hunt Ghosts, paranormal researcher Joshua P. Warren teaches the novice ghost hunter the basics, which above all include treating the paranormal as any other scientific field: one requiring well-documented research and hard evidence. This unique guide breaks down the theories, explains the tools of the trade, and even offers forms to facilitate your investigation. Peppered with anecdotes from Warren's personal experience, How to Hunt Ghosts offers answers to such questions as:• What is a ghost?• How does a ghost interact with the world? • Where can you find a haunted house? • Why do people usually see ghosts at night? • How do you record a ghostly encounter?
If you suspect you live in a haunted house and want to exorcise a ghost or attempt spectral communication, or if you are interested in pursuing a career as a ghost hunter or are simply curious about the paranormal, this intriguing and informative guide is for you.

One of the better books on the subject August 19, 2008
There are many books that purport to be a Ghost Hunter's manual, that claim to deliver a body of how-to knowledge. Most of them fall short of these claims, containing instead a collection of humorous anecdotes, personal experiences, and ghost stories.
This book delivers alot more how-to knowledge than most of the others that make these sorts of promises.
Definitely one of the better books on the topic.

 Excellent Guidance June 13, 2007
A wealth of intelligent information in this book. Part I provides a strong overview of the subject matter, with logical, scientific reasons to validate ghostly activity, as well as the various types of manifestations. The presentation is sane, balanced, unbiased and a genuine pursuit of knowledge. At the end of Part I, you will have a good concept of what a ghost is, and how it may manifest. Part II provides information on the tools used to investigate hauntings, and how to use those tools. I found this to be a terrific read and highly recommend it.
 A Reading Dry Spell January 22, 2007
1 out of 3 found this review helpful
This book has proven to be a very dry read. There are a lot of theories that seem to be the author pushing his own ideas rather than citing any basis for the information. I would like to see more how to in this "How To" guide and less dry theory after dry theory. I do not recommend this book as an instructional guide. If you just like to read about the paranormal then this book should suffice but as a how to... I would not recommend it.

BEST of the "How-To" Books out there! June 7, 2006
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is by far the very best out of the "How to Hunt Ghosts" books in circulation! It is clear that Mr Warren is knowledgeable on this topic and has provided not only terms and definitions, but case histories as well - even a simple guide on building your own home-made EMF Meter! This book is essential for both the beginner and professional ghost hunter / paranormal investigator!
