Ghosts and other spiritual entities
GhostA ghost is a soul that is no longer living, and now residing in the spirit world, seeking answers or wanting attention from the living to get a message through to someone. Some don't realize that they are dead and they will try to get the attention of the living to tell them that, or they want to tell the living that they are fine and still very much alive.
A ghost is a manifestation of a spirit or soul.
Extraterrestrial Life and UFO's
An intelligent being from somewhere outside of planet Earth, that scientists are looking further into. Some scientists believe in the possibility of these intelligent beings because of the millions of stars out there, some have to be habitable for other life!
Of or from outside the earth or its atmosphere
- - searches for extraterrestrial intelligence
A hypothetical or fictional being from outer space, esp. an intelligent one
There have been many sightings of UFO's (Unidentified flying objects) and "aliens" from people all over the world. A story in the bible about a man who said he witnessed a sign of God, is more known to be the first UFO sighting in recorded history.

Cryptids have been sighted and documented for centuries. There are hundreds of creatures thought to be in existence today. Some of the more popular cryptids include, Bigfoot, the Lochness Monster, and Werewolves.

BOOKS ON THE PARANORMAL That I've read and recommend.
Ghosts Among us (by James Van Praagh)
This book is about James Van Praagh's life as a medium, and the truths about the Afterlife seen from the medium's point of view. I think it's very educational and will give you a good outlook on life.
I recommend this book to people who believe in ghosts without a doubt, and may be sensitive to the Paranormal.
Summary / Book Description:Everyone loves a good ghost story. Perhaps the human fascination with the supernatural stems from the fact that most of us, at some point in our lives, have experienced something we couldn't quite explain. From a very young age James Van Praagh was aware of a dimension that most of us cannot see, and he has dedicated his life to explaining it to the rest of us. Ghosts Among Us takes us on an incredible journey into the spirit world that brings to light one of our greatest mysteries—what happens to us after we die?
Van Praagh, the New York Times bestselling author and co-executive producer of the CBS series The Ghost Whisperer, shares his knowledge and life experience about ghosts, a subject that can seem to many of us both bizarre and terrifying. But when the world beyond is explained fully by an experienced guide, dismissal and apprehension can be turned into knowledge and inspiration. With incredible true ghost stories and surprising details about how ghosts actively participate in our lives, Van Praagh challenges us to question our perceptions and shows us how we can live more fully through understanding the world of spirits. Including eerily accurate readings, the author's development as a medium, and detailed how-to information, Ghosts Among Us is an all-encompassing guide to the supernatural.

The Runes (by Horik Svensson)
This book is very educational about a specific thing. I wouldn't recommend it to just anybody though. It has a very specific topic even I can't quite understand well, but nonetheless it was a very interesting read and gave me some more things to think about. I recommend this book to someone who is well educated about Runes and Ancient times, Gods and Goddesses, or would truly like to know. It's not a long book, just a small one, but has creative detail and interesting facts and knowledge in it.
Summary / Book Description:The Runes are a simple to use and easy to understand method of divination based on an ancient script of the Norse World. The Runes can be used to help solve a dilemma or problem, or to enable you to focus calmly on a difficult situation and so work towards resolving it. This deluxe Runes Pack contains all you need to begin readings for yourself, family and friends. You'll be amazed at how accurate the readings are and how they pinpoint exactly what you can do to resolve a troubling situation.

Ryan Buell truly inspires me, and I look up to him for everything I'm doing right now.

So many creatures, ghosts, etc to learn about, and the show and book teach you that there is so much more to the Paranormal than we will ever know. Just never stop seeking the truth!

The Demonologist: The Extraordinary career of Ed and Lorraine Warren (By Gerald Brittle)
Truly amazing, terrifying and educating book about the career as a Demonologist. Ed and Lorraine have many cases involving demonic spirits! It takes you further than Ghosts or Yeti's. Something more powerful and out-of-this-world crazy! It is an amazingly true novel and I recommend it to everyone for their own safety, so they will learn the dangers and risks of everything they do. They could be opening a door to something so far beyond themselves. Since not just anybody will read this book, I recommend it to people with an interest in Demonology, The Paranormal and people who are getting involved with these things or plan on it.
Summary / Book Description:If you think ghosts are only responsible for hauntings, think again. The Demonologist reveals the grave religious process behind supernatural events and how it can happen to you. Over twenty years in print, here is the original uncut version of this classic text. Illustrated with photographs of phenomena in progress, every sentence in the book is true. Used as a text in seminaries and classrooms, this is one book you can't put down.
