"It's hard to find someone who can keep their head in a level space as they research such a controversial and debated topic, but Richard Estep succeeds at this masterfully. Richard examines horrific stories and lore from a place of curiosity and skepticism, something much needed when it comes to a subject heavily influenced by fearmongering and pop culture. Not to mention it's very kind of Richard to so willingly delve into some of the darkest paranormal encounters ever claimed-so you and I can read from the safety of our own homes."
