I am really enjoying this book! I haven't finished it yet, but it will be a book that I am able to finish. I saw one reveiw saying it was really long with small type, they should try reading "Ghosts: True encounters with the world beyond" by Hans Holzer. That book is about 758 pages long (compared to 568 pages in this one), larger in diameter and much smaller writing. I only made it half way through that book and don't recommend it to most. "Real Ghosts, Restless Spirits, and Haunted Places" by Brad Steiger is broken down into several chapters which are then broken down into several short stories. This is great for people like me who read before bed or get easily distracted. Some of the stores are odd and others quite amusing. I would say it is rated PG-13 since there is some bad language. If you like reading about "true" hauntings then I would highly recommend this book.Read full review

I decided to buy it just for the price itself not really expecting greatness or the like so i was surprise to find myself reading the whole book in less that a couple of days. its subjects were well presented and it was easy to follow up. loved the examples given about ghosts and haunted houses.
