Poltergeists

(4) 4-6 Mysterious Encounters series. Not for the easily spooked, these clearly written books present descriptions, histories, and captivating personal anecdotes of peculiar creatures and eerie occurrences. Sidebars addressing alternative explanations may satisfy skeptics, though the text does tend to present the supernatural as fact. The stock photos and illustrations can be cheesy, but they break up the text nicely. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind. Review covers these Mysterious Encounters titles: Fairies, Poltergeists, The Afterlife, Witches, and Leprechauns.
