Join us in congratulating Brian Laythe and ‘The Ghost Gang’ (as they call themselves), for their exceptional work in producing a book that is not only thoroughly researched and well written, but also entertaining and understandable.

Ghosted! offers a fresh and modern perspective on the field of paranormal research, presenting new insights and evidence that suggest the existence of a "Haunted People Syndrome" which describes the recurring anomalous experiences that some individuals have and interpret as ghostly encounters. Written by a team of leading-edge researchers, it invites both academics and citizen scientists to participate in the exploration of paranormal mysteries. The book has received praise from paranormal investigators, researchers, and academics for its well thought-out ideas, insights, and investigation techniques, and is considered a major step forward in the advancement of the field. We encourage those interested in parapsychology to read this innovative and thought-provoking work.
