In this authoritative book, Phil Whyman -- paranormal investigator and member of Living TV's Most Haunted team -- introduces the reader to the different forms of paranormal activity that can be encountered at a haunted site. He explains what ghosts are and the different forms they can take, orbs and light anomalies, and poltergeist phenomena. He then goes on to detail the equipment used in an investigation and to provide a guide to conducting one, taking into account such diverse issues as moon phases and approaching location owners. Phil's in-depth analysis includes information on aspects of paranormal investigation not usually found in books of this type, such as magnetic field interference, earth tremor and residual energy theory. The book also includes reports on investigations that Phil has undertaken as well as accounts from members of the public.
