Footsteps in the Attic [Paperback]

In Paul F. Eno's worldview, "ghosts" can be caused by several different phenomena, from "standing waves" or low frequency sound waves, to time displacements, and from visitation apparitions to parasitic entities. We learn about each of these through actual cases Eno has investigated. Each sighting is taken seriously and examined with an even-handed manner that allows for any possibility.

His hypotheses are well researched and although he is careful to point out that he is not a scientist, his work reflects the findings of some of the greatest minds in "new" or quantum physics.

If you're ever troubled with what seems to be a haunting problem, this book should be your first line of attack. In fact, you may want to keep it on hand just in case. This modern Ghost Buster may not carry around a power pack, but his methods are going to be a whole lot more effective if you are ever face-to-face with the real thing.

In Footsteps in the Attic, he lays out his utterly unique and ultimately convincing view that what we call "ghosts" are really far more complex, and really arise from slips in time and alternate universes. This based-in-fact scientific explanation makes this book stand out among the many Halloween "scare" books on the market now that read more like fiction.

And from the story of a disappearing house to an apparently troubled classroom in an elementary school and his dire warnings about parasites and the use of Ouija boards, Eno tells a far scarier tale than those fiction-inspired haunting stories ever could. This is because everything he writes about comes from his personal involvement in these cases.

For anyone interested in truly understanding the paranormal, or even opening your mind to the possibility of its existence, I highly recommend this book.
