The Field Guide to Ghosts and Other Apparitions
The Field Guide to Ghosts and Other Apparitions by Hilary Evans and Patrick Huyghe
Rating: 
- Combines ghost stories with a little education
- These categories aren’t universally accepted
- A fun, light book to read for a moderately ‘good scare’
This book is nicely organized with a page for each ghost, plus a sketch of the apparition. Who’d have thought that there are so many categories of ghosts?
This book is ideal for a light read at night… if you want to fall asleep dreaming of spectres, that is!
A clever set of categories helps you understand what kind of ghost it is, before you read the summary of the haunting. With that information, the stories seem even more chilling and real.
Because it covers international spirits, it could be a helpful source of legends to use as a starting point. (Whenever you’re starting with folklore, it’s smart to do some historical research before investing a lot of time in a serious investigation.)
This is mostly a light read for those who love “ghost stories.” Suitable for most teens, as well.
