Great for reference and browsing. - By: Daniel Delahoyde, 28 Sep 2008
This is an excellent reference book & also a very informative & entertaining general interest book on the unexplained & paranormal. The title is a bit misleading, it is a dictionary, in that articles are sorted alphabeticallly, but there's also lots of photos, illustrations & feature pieces on many topics. So it's almost an encylopedia as much as a dictionary. Open it on any page & you'll find an interesting article. Chambers have created a microsite speciallly for this book that will give you a flavour of whats inside. I found it very helpful to know the books layout & style before I purchased.

This book fitted my needs perfectly. It's a one-stop shop where I can quickly get the facts on a particular topic, & also read more detailed articles about a wide range of subjects. Beautifully presented & authoritatively written it's a great addition to any home or office bookshelf. It would make a great gift for any fan of the unexplained & paranormal as well.
Fantastic Book-Shame About The Cover! - By: Cryptoresearcher, 13 Aug 2008
Anybody with the slightest interest in the occult or paranormal would be well advised to at least peruse this book-it has so many interesting entries on other topics that you soon become thoroughly engrossed.

My only gripe is the abysmal cover that gives no clue as to the contents-the Art Director should be shot for producing such an abomination. It looks like some sort of art book instead of the thoroughly entertaining read it is!
