About this audiobook
Do you believe in ghosts? This question opens one of the most fascinating collections of stories about dreams, visions and apparitions ever published. Andrew Lang — poet, historian and tireless investigator of the mysterious — brings together some eighty authentic accounts gathered over the course of two centuries: premonitory dreams, visions in crystal balls, inexplicable hallucinations and genuine ghost stories, often recounted in the own words of those who experienced them.
Not an academic treatise, but an irresistible journey along the fine line between sleep and wakefulness, between science and the supernatural — written with the curious and sceptical eye of someone who, like Lang, presided over the Society for Psychical Research without ever ceasing to question.
Perfect for those who love mystery, the Victorian occult and true stories more unsettling than fiction.
