"In the most notable nook of the home window a pale, milky-white wisp is growing almost to the most notable in our ten-foot roof.... I am startled but not afraid.... Usually, I am engrossed; I have never seen anything such as this before (or since) and it fascinates me." Dennis Waskul wrote these lines - about his firsthand experience with the supernatural - in the intro to his beguiling reserve Ghostly Encounters. Predicated on two years of fieldwork and interviews with 71 Midwestern People in america, the Waskuls' reserve is a reflexive ethnography that examines how people experience spirits and hauntings in everyday activity. The writers explore how uncanny happenings become spirits and the reason why people struggle with or against a will to trust. They present the variety and identity of hauntings and ghostly encounters, outcomes of people telling haunted legends, and the nested implications of ghostly experience. Through these testimonies, Ghostly Encounters looks for to comprehend the persistence of uncanny experience and beliefs in ghosts in a day and age of reason, technology, education, and technology - as well as how those beliefs and experience both reflect and serve important communal and social functions. The reserve is posted by Temple School Press.
