2. The Parapsychology Revolution
This is a valuable volume for every serious investigator of the paranormal. It draws on scientific and historical research to evaluate the popularity of and beliefs surrounding paranormal phenomena over the past 125 years through essays that consider the plausibility of such abilities as clairvoyance, telepathy, and past-life regression. Compiled by Robert M. Schoch, Ph.D. and Logan Yonavjak.
3. G.H.O.S.T. Hunters: The Haunting of Majesty Manor
Who or what haunts Majesty Manor? In this PC game for Windows, you're alone in an eerie, deserted mansion, and as a ghost buster you must unearth cryptic clues to draw out the restless spirits and lay the mystery of Majesty Manor to rest. Your task is to gather a list of supernatural suspects and eliminate them one by one in a final pulse-pounding race against time.
4. CFZ Monster!: The A-Z of Zooform Phenomena
This book is starting to get a lot of attention in cryptozoology circles. Neil Arnold takes a look at the zooform phenomena, which he calls the most elusive and least understood mystery "animals". In fact, they are not animals at all, but entities or apparitions which adopt, or seem to have quasi-animal form. How weird is that?
5. The Book of the Damned
Charles Fort was the original collecter of what we now call "fortean" phenomena, such as rains of frogs, weird creatures, bizarre human anomalies, and more. This volume is a collection of his four books: The Book of the Damned, Lo!, Wild Talents, and New Lands. A must for every paranormal bookshelf.
6. TAPS Paramagazine
Every fan of TV's "Ghost Hunters" would appreciate a subscription to TAPS Paramagazine, a nicely designed bimonthly publication that features articles on ghost hunting (of course), UFOs, cryptozoology, psychic phenomena, paranormal culture, as well as photos and stories from readers and ghost investigation groups from all over.
7. Ghost Hunting equipment
Do you have a ghosthunter on your shopping list? Chances are they are drooling over the prospect of getting some new investigation tools this season. A good source is Shadowlands Ghosthunter Store. They have all the latest gadgets: EMF meters, wireless video sets, infrared thermometers, EVP recorders, dowsing supplies, motion sensors, and lots more.
8. Paranormal / New Age clothes and jewelry
There are many sources of New Age materials, including New Age stores in your neighborhood. Of course, there are many online retailers as well. One I found that looks like a good source is The Pyramid Collection. They have clothing and accessories, jewelry, figurines and statues, artwork, and more. This may be where you go when you run out of other ideas.
9. T-shirts and sweatshirts
If you're just looking for paranormal-themed t-shirts, a good source is an online store called -- are you ready? -- Paranormal Tshirts.com. How wacky is that? Anyway, you can get short- and long-sleeve shirts featuring your favorite paranormalia: little gray aliens, crop circles, UFOs, ghosts, mythical creatures, demons, vampires, and all that other crazy paranormal stuff.
