Clairvoyants - Seances - A Short Story Collection

Human beings are by nature very social animals. Most of us love to connect, to talk and share experiences. It’s a big world with much to do. But curiosity and grief are two situations that make some people attempt to discover more.

We are all familiar with the Ouija Board and also the thrill, or perhaps worry, that nighttime can be full of spirits who offer harm and fear, rather than comfort and solace.

In this volume we run the gamut across clairvoyants as we explore seances and all manner of experiences that come from them or of our curiosity to find out more from the spirit world, ‘the other side’. Indeed, grief motivates some people to talk with their departed loved ones through their talents. Whether they be genuine or charlatans our authors stories reveal much about the human condition from the pens of Benson, Schwob, Purves, Hope, Cowles and Jerome as well as the talents of many others.
