Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

I know what I saw...

'The ghosts of today live not in castles or stately homes, but in ordinary houses and offices, and they're witnessed by ordinary people like you and me. We just need to figure out what the hell they are - the dead returning from the "undiscovered country" of death? Or the product of that equally mysterious and ancient location, the human mind?

This book is the story of these ordinary people who have experienced extraordinary things and want to make sense of them. Each one is a brand-new case I have never shared before; modern day ghost stories that make my blood run cold as effectively as anything that Charles Dickens could rustle up. And they are all entirely true.

It's also a story of my own personal journey of discovery because I've realised something while reading all these incredible stories that come my way. I've realised how much I want to believe. I'm asking you to join me, to keep an open mind and to prepare to have your very concept of reality challenged. Are you ready?'

Marvellous!

Intriguing cases, thoughtful insights, and a great respect for the experiences of everyone involved. I’m a fan of the podcast and was really excited to listen to the audiobook, I wasn’t at all disappointed, and would encourage listeners to download!

Entertaining, enlightening, responsibly told

This book is full of insight, information and empathy. It’s told with clarity and humour, and is really well balanced and non-judgemental. A really good listen for anyone interested in people & psychology as well as the spooky stuff.

Excellently spooky, loved it!

Danny is a great storyteller, questioner and excavator of these situations! Great job… I might even write in with my own tales of the weird!

Loved it!

An all encompassing look at paranormal stories from both sides. Well written and researched with a little bit of humour to take the edge off those nerves! I can’t wait to see the live show.

Absolutely brilliant!

If you like the podcast, you will love the book. Danny does his usual job of telling wonderful, intriguing stories.

I thoroughly enjoyed every minute, and particularly the slightly less formal, more personal approach that a books lends to stories over a podcast.

More please, Danny!

Worth sitting down and REALLY listening!

Silly me. I was thinking I'd get lots of work done around the house while listening to Danny. Nope. His book is worthy of your full attention. Well done, Danny. You deserve all your success! (Team believer, oh yesss!)
