| Publisher Description: Many people believe they have seen a ghost. The experience is as old as records of civilisation, yet we are told that ghosts are purely hallucinatory; spooks caught on camera are dust particles on the lens; mysterious lights are fireflies and UFOs are chinese lanterns. But what if these anomalies are not caused through hallucination, dust particles, fireflies or chinese lanterns? More and more people are becoming aware that things beyond the current range of scientific explanation or normal human capabilities can and do happen and this presents us with a paranormal puzzle. Is there some mysterious earth energy that acts like a giant power grid; do certain rocks hold energy that can be released like disco lights; is it possible to see a scene as it happened years ago like some form of hologram? Spook lights, aerial phantoms and things that fall from the sky pre-date the invention of the aeroplane, and how do we account for phantom planes, UFOs and extraterrestrial visitations? Such things challenge all established views and ideas. Paranormal Derbyshire is not only packed with amazing stories, you are also invited to participate in a spot of ghost hunting. We'll guide you safely through the techniques so you too can delve into the paranormal secrets of Derbyshire. The paranormal is a mysterious, intriguing, awe inspiring and exciting facet of human life that common sense simply can't justify or explain but who knows - it could be just a matter of time before the paranormal becomes the normal. |
