TV's POPULAR GHOST HUNTERS REVEAL ALL-NEW, NEVER-BEFORE-TOLD STORIES FROM THEIR SPOOKY EARLY INVESTIGATIONS!
For the first time ever, Jason Hawes and Grant Wilson, founders of The Atlantic Paranormal Society (T.A.P.S.), share their most memorable and spine-tingling early cases -- none of which has ever appeared on television. Beginning with the previously untold experiences that sparked their passion for ghost hunting, Jason and Grant's bone-chilling investigations uncover:
• A Connecticut woman who seems to exist in two places at once
• A little girl whose invisible playmate retaliates
against her father's punishments
• A man overcome by an evil entity as Jason and Grant survey his home
• A distraught woman who dreams of paranormal events
before she experiences them...and much more!
Jason and Grant didn't always have the fancy scientific equipment and experienced team that fans now watch on their smash-hit television show. As they share their hair-raising first experiences, they offer essential tips for budding paranormal investigators -- including how to use an electromagnetic field (EMF) meter and an infrared camera, determine if a supernatural phenomenon is good or evil, and deal with spirits. Whether you're a skeptic or a believer, these fascinating and frightening true stories will keep you up at night!

Becoming a little skeptical concerning these guys.,

This review is from: Seeking Spirits (Kindle Edition)
First let me say as have others, I am a huge fan of the show and their investigative style. I have been heavily interested in the Paranormal for close to 40 years, and have read more on the subject than I can even begin to describe.
When I found the show a few years ago I was gratified at the objectivity these guys and their crew displayed and the way they came at the cases, first attempting to debunk the claims of their clients as opposed to most who seem to see paranormal activity everywhere.
I have seen and read others attempts to discredit Jason and Grants evidence saying most is hoaxed so as to boost ratings, I took much of this with a grain of salt. After all the team has been very succesfull on their television program, so some jealous negativity is expected to come their way. On to the book:
I read Jason and Grants first book and enjoyed it immensly, but this second has caused me to rethink their entire group and the authenticity of TAPs as...Read more

A very interesting read!!,

This review is from: Seeking Spirits: The Lost Cases of The Atlantic Paranormal Society (Paperback)
If you're a fan of the show Ghost Hunters, then you'll need to pick this up. Over all it was a good read.
There are a lot of good things about this book that were improvements over the last book. All of the cases are cases not seen on Ghost Hunters. That's a big plus. The cases were new to us, and they were a very interesting read. Jay and Grant both cases where they had evidence of ghosts, and cases they debunked. After all, not every house they come to is haunted. The cases ranged from some that really broke my heart to cases that made me laugh out loud. All's I'll say is that on one of the cases, a guy was having a **really** good time. It was really neat to see how Jay and Grant debunked some of the cases. Some of the debunking cases, I'd like to have seen on the show, but they didn't have the show back then.
I also liked how Grant told us of his first real paranormal experience. I don't want to say to much of it here because I don't want to spoil it, but...Read more

Disappointing Second Effort,
October 18, 2009 Bast (Hampton Roads Virginia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Seeking Spirits: The Lost Cases of The Atlantic Paranormal Society (Paperback)
Disappointing second effort from the TAPs guys. I looked forward to this for months, read it the first day I got it and was really disappointed at the end. In my opinion, despite a couple of good things, there were more cons than pros with this book.
Pros:
Grant's telling of his first paranormal experience
Colour pictures insert, although some of the pictures were not very good quality.
Cons:
One or two of the same stories in this as in a former TAPs member's book - Paranormal Realities
Stories were very very short. In fact, I hesitate calling them 'stories'... they were almost summaries, in my opinion.
As a long-time fan of GH (have watched every single ep), I really don't need the info injected between the stories about EVPs, etc. I would have preferred that...Read more
