Ghost Caught on Film presents an extraordinary collection of strange and unexplained photographs that offer the exciting possibility of ghosts and paranormal activity captured on film. The book features early photographs from the Society for Psychical Research of psychics and mediums producing ectoplasm, ghost pictures and other paranormal phenomena as well as celebrated modern images such as the Hampton Court ghost. Each picture is accompanied by a description of its circumstances and the steps taken by Willin, the Society for Psychical Research and the Royal Photographic Society to establish that there is no `normal' explanation for the phenomena. The incredible photographs will stimulate the interest of everyone who sees them. Whether you are a complete sceptic or a semi-believer, you can't help but be drawn into the mystery.

Review Summary: Great Book Awesome Pictures!
Review: What a great idea putting some of the most famous and not so famous ghost pictures in a book and telling about the origin of them. I really enjoyed seeing the pictures and finding out where they came from. It was very interesting and I think the author did a find job of telling the story behind them without adding to it.

Review Summary: Earns Respect
Review: This book earns a great deal of my respect for many reasons. I appreciate the presentation of facts, letting the reader decide what to believe. The layout is beautiful and it makes a fascinating coffee table book. I like that is has some of the most famous and heavily disputed photographs of all time throughout the book . . . some of these are instantly recognizable. I also like that along the left side of each page, Dr. Willin notes if the photograph was ever found to be evidently bogus or if the jury is still out, along with a summary on how the picture came about (and any other interesting theories, possible causes/technologies, quotes/comments from other experts). This book was simply well done and makes a great teaching/research tool . . . truly a collectable.

Please note that the photographs in this book are in full color and on quality paper. Dr. Willin also zooms in on specific elements in certain pictures, to make them easier to see and decipher.
