While examining who or what these dark beings may actually be and sharing the ominous experiences of several others, Ricksecker recounts his interactions with shadows, which also include a black mass that formed in a bedroom where a girl had seen an entity with red eyes, a crawler that crept its way around an abandoned desecrated church, and many more.

While there was a lot of information provided in A WALK IN THE SHADOW, I found the overall presentation to be a bit hodgepodge and not particularly well-organized. In addition, the author will present some data and then provide his deduction about what that data signifies, and oftentimes, I found the logic of those deductions spurious at best. How does THAT data, lead to THAT conclusion, was the question I asked myself several times while reading this book. It was proficiently written but it was not good writing, and the editing and formatting of the book seemed to me rather amateurish. I'd recommend this book ONLY if you are truly interested in shadow people but take it with a grain of salt.

One of the worst books I've read of late.
I'm so tired of the first third of the book looking like "Then this happened, but we'll get to that in chapter 12", over and over again. I hate writing like that.
Poorly written, same thing over and over... waste of time and money sad to say.

Pretty wild stuff if you're into that sort of thing. My wife and I read this for a community college class that was equally crazy.

Shadow People. Are they real? Tricks of the light? Demons? Trapped souls wandering between dimensions? Within the past few years, Shadow People have moved from Mythos to Mainstream and are now gaining a foothold in Modern Paranormal Communities.

In his latest book, “A Walk In The Shadows: A Complete Guide to Shadow People”, author Mike Ricksecker brings these shadowy figures to light, removing the fear and the darkness, finally giving a voice to those who do not speak.

Well researched, Mike Ricksecker explores the various types of Shadow People and their presence throughout history. Thought provoking tales and eye witness accounts are woven throughout the pages, enumerating experiences and events which are well crafted in what can only be called a “passion project” for Ricksecker.

Destined to be a definitive modern-day guide to the elusive world of Shadow People, “A Walk In The Shadows” offers new perspectives and a fresh voice to a world where few have ventured.

Ok, but the writing wasn't as tight as I would like. Author jumps all over the place and there wasn't a great flow to things.
