| Synopsis | |
| Ghosts and ghouls, demons, poltergeists, phantoms, haunted houses, and shadow people-why is America so captivated by the creepy and unexplained? Paranormal Obsession is the first book to explore why we have an insatiable interest in spirits, ghost hunting, and all things otherworldly. Paranormal investigator and researcher Deonna Kelli Sayed reveals how and why our fascination with spirits started. She interviewed ghost hunters, religious figures, scientists, academics, and cast members of the popular TV shows Ghost Hunters and Paranormal State, and offers compelling insight into what our fixation on ghostly activity says about American culture. Paranormal Obsession also highlights the author's paranormal group's investigation of the USS North Carolina, the most haunted battleship in the United States. Praise: "Everyone can learn a thing or two from Deonna's writings. Her heart and soul are poured into every sentence."-Jason Hawes, co-founder of TAPS and co-star of the SyFy Channel show Ghost Hunters "Thank you, Deonna, for getting it right."-Grant Wilson, co-founder of TAPS and co-star of the SyFy Channel show Ghost Hunters Why is America so captivated by the creepy and unexplained? Paranormal Obsession is the first book to explore why we have an insatiable interest in spirits, ghost hunting and all things otherworldly. Why is America so captivated by the unexplained? Far beyond a book of ghost stories, Paranormal Obsession offers a unique cultural studies approach to the global phenomena of spirits, ghost hunting, and all things otherworldly. Providing an insider's view from within the spiritseeking community, paranormal investigator Deonna Kelli Sayed explores how and why our love of spirits started, how ghosts took over the small screen, the roles of science and religion, our fascination with life after death-and what it all says about American culture. Weighing perspectives of ghost hunters, religious figures, scientists, academics, parapsychologists, and cast members of the popular TV shows Ghost Hunters and Paranormal State, this book offers compelling insight into America's fixation on ghostly activity. It also highlights the author's paranormal group's investigation of the USS North Carolina, the most haunted battleship in the United States. | |
