Steve Mera had been investigating paranormal phenomena for many years, and had never seen anything that shock him to his very foundations. All that changed in 1996, when he was called in to investigate the bizarre occurrences taking place at a small bungalow in England. Flying objects, disembodied voices, phantom smells and sounds, and strangest of all, copious falls of water that seemingly came from nowhere plagued the Gardner family for nearly a year. What Steve experienced during the investigation was enough to make him question his entire career path, and remains one of only a handful of cases that he is completely unable to rationally explain. This account, written by horror author Jenny Ashford from interviews conducted with Steve about the case, is a bone-chilling foray into the paranormal that will make even the most ardent skeptic sleep with the lights on.

Just when you thought home renovation couldn't be a bigger headache, along comes a haunting and a crazy supernatural cult. Martin, Chloe, Ivan, and Olivia are four arty friends who have bought and renovated an old house once owned by a magician who disappeared under mysterious circumstances. No sooner have they slapped on the last lick of paint than trouble starts brewing: First come nightmares, suggesting something lurks behind the walls that isn't insulation. Then comes the parade of strange, empty-eyed people who want to get into the house. The nightmares get worse, finally leading to a bizarre discovery in the bowels of the house. The strange people multiply, threatening the lives and sanity of the four heroes and their friends. It all leads up to a confrontation between the dueling forces plaguing the house from within and without - but who are the good guys when both sides are evil? (less)
"From the moment I first looked upon his striking and clouded features, his dark eyes brimming with passion, intensity, and hellish fire, I knew he was destined to come to ruin. I want to commemorate him as a man, as an artist; yes, even as a criminal. I set down the story for myself, for the world, so that all of us may come to some late understanding of the man they call Caravaggio." Lauded genius, tortured madman, fugitive murderer...the painter Caravaggio lived a tragically short life treading the line between heaven and hell. This fictionalized account, told by his beloved acolyte Mario Minniti, is a sordid tale of art and adoration, of power and passion, of fame and infamy, of lunacy and violence, illustrated by the stunning beauty of the painter's legendary works.
Rapping on the walls. Mysterious rains of stones. Furniture moving around by itself. Phantom voices. Unexplained fires. Invisible assaults. The symptoms of poltergeist activity are well known, but what is a poltergeist, really? Is it some type of demon, or an angry spirit whose only mission is to cause mischief and destruction? Is it the unconscious energy of a troubled living person, somehow affecting the environment from a distance? Or could it all be simply fraud or misidentification? In this comprehensive book, well over one hundred cases of poltergeist activity, from the first century to the present day, are summarized and examined. All the best-known cases are presented, from Borley Rectory to the Bell Witch, from the Great Amherst Mystery to Gef the Talking Mongoose, from Rosenheim to Tina Resch, from Enfield to the Entity. A large selection of fascinating and lesser-known accounts from all over the world are also included, and all contain testimony of the most eerie and extraordinary events. In addition, the book contains in-depth discussions of distinct patterns, stages, and theorized causes of poltergeist phenomena, drawing from some of the best research in parapsychology, neuroscience, and quantum mechanics, as well as a skeptical perspective to provide a grounded overview. The Unseen Hand is the ultimate, one-stop shop for readers interested in poltergeist disturbances throughout history and the theories behind what causes them.
