    About this ebook

    A firsthand witness to an uncountable number of paranormal events, author Billy Roberts tells absolutely true stories that will leave you touched by otherworldly fear. Filled with poltergeists, murderers, and hair-raising spirits, Ghostly Tales is possibly the most frightening book you will ever read. Some of the spine-chilling stories included in this book are gruesome. Some are horrific. All of the stories will chill you to your very bones.

    A dead man lurks in the land of the living, mystifying his family at his own funeral. An unassuming family, caught in the grip of a misbegotten crystal ball, becomes haunted by deplorable scenes of hellish atrocities. A cloven-hooved card shark interrupts a weekly poker game and terrorizes the players with evil foreboding. The dozens of stories in this book are absolutely true, and they all transcend the bounds of the imagination in a way that will have you afraid to turn out the lights.

      British medium Billy Roberts recounts some of his cases. It features ghosts, poltergeists, haunted houses and visits from the grave. Some of the stories are rather mundane, the start of the book with the visits from the grave and/or people who have recently died who visit a loved one are just kind of blah. Near the middle of the book when the author begins to detail more of the cases that he has personally been involved in it becomes more interesting. Hauntings where the previous owners were not happy with new tenants, a German man who becomes possessed by someone from a concentration camp, the head nurse from a psychiatric hospital who doesn't know she's dead.
