A fine line: Fact or fiction?
A dark, stormy night, home alone and talk of demons in every corner waiting....for you. The greatest challenge facing the reader is to discern what aspects of this book are documented fact, what is blatant hype or exaggeration and, in some cases, outright lies.

Having participated in this line of work and study for several decades, I can attest that occurences as depicted in this book do happen from time to time. However, the material is presented in such a spectacular vein one can only question what the true, primary motivation is for writing on this subject in this manner. I suspect the answer is money.

If the text is to be presented, as it is, as fact then the occurences should be reported honestly and unemotionally. If the text is to be presented as fiction then poetic license and creativity is more than appropriate.

I am concerned with the authenticity and the obvious "marketing" approach of this book. I believe the reader, (purchaser), is being sold a bill of goods and that the subject deserves a higher level of respect than it receives. In fact, for the money, I'd recomend a Stephen King novel. At least King does'nt purport to be presenting fact in his writings.

Terrifying!
This is the first horror book I read that really scared me. Very interesting and spooky! I was lucky enough to hear Ed and Lorraine speak at a high school a few years ago- they were great. If you never get to meet them (or even if you do) read this book, it's worth it!
