Good book, although she repeated a lot of information. Which may be a good thing for some readers, for me, I wanted to get to the how to. Which was at the end of the book. I recommend this book for anyone who is not already in the world of cleansing and such. Worth the read.

Book Review originally published here: http://www.iheartreading.net/reviews/...

I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

When I started reading How to Clear Your Home of Ghosts & Spirits, I was rather skeptical. I’ve read a lot of true haunting books, and I thought I knew pretty well how to handle ghosts and spirits in a home. I thought I wasn’t going to learn anything new. Imagine my surprise when I picked up quite a few things I hadn’t known before.

Author Debi Chestnut starts with looking for logical explenations for the proclaimed haunting, which is a big bonus. Half of the time, people suspect their house is haunted, while in reality, it’s nothing more than a squeaky door, loose floorboards, or even rats and mice. Then she goes on to explain the different types of haunting, using her personal experience.

Some parts were a bit repetitive, but the author manages to give the reader a clear, concise rundown of different types of hauntings, and what to do when they think their house might be haunted. She also gives her email address in case anyone needs help, which I thought was very generous, and showed her sincerity.

I didn’t always agree with the author’s point of view, or the way she classified the different types of hauntings – I would’ve used a different classification – but she explains everything so even people completely new to the world of hauntings and paranormal phenomena, would understand it.

If you think your house might be haunted, pick up this book before you call in the Ghostbusters. It might save you some time, and you might learn a bit more about the specters inhabiting your home.

I thought this book was concise and presented in a no-nonsense, conversational style that was quite appealing. I'm glad Chestnut started out with a "let's make sure it isn't something completely normal" chapter. It definitely made her seem more reliable and sensible. She also readily gives an email address to contact her at if you have any questions. I'm not sure how quick or helpful the responses are (I didn't test it), but I think it says a lot--personally and professionally-- of a person in any field when they do this.

Overall, I enjoyed this more than other books that spent more time on a religious/spiritual/afterlife/blah, blah, blah explanation.

This book was very well thought out and had a great flow. I loved the way the author started out by saying most hauntings had natural causes and laid out some of the causes. She then went on to tell the different kinds of hauntings and gave her own case histories for some of the different kinds of hauntings. After breaking down the types of hauntings, she told the different ways to clear each kind of haunting. Even with my having experience in paranormal investigation, I found myself learning some new things. I think this would be a great book for someone having issues with a haunting in their home. It would definitely help ease a lot of their worries and let them know they're not alone.
