A wispy figure in a photograph. Objects overturned, broken, or missing. Movement in the attic. These are the sorts of things people report when they believe they have encountered a ghost. Are ghosts real, or just visions and sensations captured by an overactive imagination? This book will show readers not only some of the locations for famous hauntings, but also the science and technology that goes into proving, and disproving, encounters with spirits. Readers will discover inexplicable poltergeists and baffled families, as well as logical explanations such as infrasound and magnetic fields. They will be introduced to the field of parapsychology, and learn how ghosts and hauntings have permeated the horror genre of so many forms of storytelling, including social media.

ISBN: 1604731443

Southerners are accustomed to hearing stories of a residence, an old hotel, a mansion, or a battlefield being haunted. In Ghost Hunters of the South, Alan Brown shows that ghostlore is no longer enough for some. The forty-four ghost hunting groups he profiles in this book pack cameras, Geiger counters, thermal scanners, oscilloscopes, tape recorders, computers, and dowsing rods to find and record elusive proof of supernatural activity. With candor, the directors and team members reveal the passions and even obsessions that lead them to this expensive, time-consuming, and sometimes dangerous and chilling pursuit of evidence of the spirit realm. Brown interviews enthusiasts from twelve states--Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia. Ghost Hunters of the South takes the reader along on exciting and fearful investigations of places such as the Myrtles, St. Francis Inn, Chickamauga Battlefield, Bob Mackey's Music World, Old Talbott Tavern, North Carolina State Capitol, Granberry Opera House, and 17Hundred90 Inn and Restaurant. Brown participates in some of the investigations to gain a full and objective understanding of teachers, doctors, accountants, housewives, and law enforcement personnel, who devote much of their free time to a quest that many outsiders view with skepticism if not scorn. In fascinating, frightening, and sometimes humorous accounts, Brown highlights the determination of these individuals to answer the question: What happens to the soul after death?. Alan Brown is a professor of English and director of the Writing Center at the University of West Alabama.
