                          True Ghost Stories

                        BY HEREWARD CARRINGTON

                            [Illustration]

The author of this book is well known in both America and Europe as a
prominent scientific writer on psychical and occult subjects. He has
been a member of both the English and American Societies for Psychical
Research for more than fifteen years, has written over a dozen books on
the subject, a number of which have been translated into foreign
languages including the Japanese and Arabic, and he has lectured in
London, Paris, Rome, Venice, Milan, Geneva, Turin, etc., before
scientific organizations. His writings are well known and have earned
him a high place in psychical circles. In this book he presents a number of startling cases which he has
discovered in his unrivalled investigations of psychical mysteries. They
are not the ordinary “ghost stories,” based on pure fiction and having
no foundation in reality, but are a collection of incidents all
thoroughly investigated and vouched for, the testimony being obtained
first hand and corroborated by others. The first chapter deals with the interesting question =What Is a Ghost?=
and attempts to answer this question in the light of the latest
scientific theories which have been advanced to explain these
supernatural happenings and visitants. Other chapters are:

    =Phantasms of the Dead.=
    =More Phantasms.=
    =Haunted Houses.=
    =Ghost Stories of a More Dramatic Order.=
    =Historical Ghosts.=
    =The Phantom Armies Seen in France.=
    =Bibliography.=

=True Ghost Stories= is a book of absorbing interest and cannot fail to
grip and hold the attention of every reader, whether he be a student of
these questions, or merely in search of hair-raising anecdotes and
stories, he will find them here a-plenty. The book contains 250 pages printed on antique woven book paper,
attractively bound in cloth, with illustrated jacket in colors. =Price,
75 cents by mail, postpaid.=
