This is an auction for ENCYCLOPEDIA OF GHOSTS by Daniel Cohen.

Amazon.com reviews:

"FIVE STARS!!! This book is a great resource... it examines nearly every famous ghost case and provides an objective look at all of them, without presenting an overly critical eye. There are just as many instances where he applauds the stories for their elements (who the witnesses were) as well as presenting the facts as to why the veracity of certain stories should be questioned. He also examines mediums and the popularity of ghosts in at the turn of the century. He has a great bibliography with even more resources for those who want to learn more, listing books from the turn of the century all the way up to the year before he published this book."

"A wonderful book. Daniel Cohen's objective approach helped a lot in the accounts that are contained in this book, which is neither critical nor imposing that the stories aren't hoax whenever not proven as false. Fine resource material for research in the study of the most popular cases of poltergeists and hauntings, written in a concise and neat manner."

"What makes this a superb collection is its expanse. While I'm sure Mr Cohen couldn't throw all research into this work, what remains is still impressive. He does not go into all detail, but gives the necessary-yet-fascinating summaries of these ghosts, events, etc. It can be used as simply a spooky book of ghost stories or as a springboard to more research. Definitely a must-have for those interested in all things supernatural, whether serious or not."
