This chilling collection of true-crime tales dating from the mid-18th century to the present all feature some element of the paranormal. Cases include the discovery of a body by a spiritualist medium, a murder solved by a dream of the mother of the victim, and evidence at a Scottish murder trial provided by the ghost of the victim herself. Featuring visions, psychometry, ghosts, haunted prisons, possessions, and spiritualist detectives, this book is a fascinating look at criminology and ghost hunting. Paranormal historian Paul Adams has opened the case files of both the criminologist and the ghost hunter to compile a unique collection of crime from British history. 538 System requirements: Adobe Digital editions. 588 0 Print version record. 650 0 Murder|zGreat Britain. 650 0 Ghosts|zGreat Britain. 650 0 Parapsychology and crime|zGreat Britain|xHistory. 650 7 TRUE CRIME / Murder / General.|2bisacsh 655 0 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aAdams, Paul|tGhosts & Gallows : True Stories of Crime and the Paranormal|dNew York : The History Press,c2012|z9780752463391 914 frd00011605
