by Richard Sugg (Author)
This book presents one hundred real-life stories from the nineteenth century press. Along with accounts of ghosts, poltergeists, and haunted houses, we meet extraordinary reports of the dying appearing hundreds or thousands of miles from the sight of their death, and living people who quite literally appear in two places at once. Analysing and interpreting these stories in the light of modern paranormal events and scientific findings, Century aims to show that ghosts and poltergeists certainly do exist. It offers a range of persuasive theories about what they really are and what they mean, and screws the microscope down on the details of ghost sightings and poltergeist incidents. Why are some ghosts grey or vague, and others able to pass as living people? Can ghosts speak? How do ghosts or poltergeists use human energy, and particularly the energy of the young or the traumatised? How do such phenomena relate to light, to electromagnetism, and even the body's circadian rhythms? This is a book about ghosts and poltergeists by someone who never expected to take them seriously. It is a book inspired by the strange experience of continually hearing such stories from people who kept them hidden until they were prompted to speak. It aims to help those who have suffered from the trauma of poltergeists, and to bring back into the open experiences which, in the developed world, have become a new kind of taboo. It is a book for anyone interested in the extraordinary effects of human emotion; the fringes of biology and physics; and the possible survival of human consciousness after death.
Author Biography
Richard Sugg is the author of six previous books: John Donne (2007), Murder After Death (2007), Mummies, Cannibals and Vampires: The History of Corpse Medicine from the Renaissance to the Victorians (2011; 2nd edition 2015), The Smoke of the Soul (2013), The Secret History of the Soul (2013), and A Century of Supernatural Stories (2015). He will shortly be publishing his comprehensive and long-awaited study of vampirism as The Real Vampires. Fairies: A Dangerous History is due out with Reaktion Books in 2018. He likes strange subjects, dirty history, and the fertile frictions sparked when unlikely opposites meet. He has a very promising poltergeist novel underway for the right literary agent, and is currently working with Keith Linder towards a scientific study of Linder's four year poltergeist experiences. His work has been featured widely in international press, radio and television. He is currently completing A Century of Animal Stories (CreateSpace, 2017).
