    Loved the book

    Hopefully we are all going to cross over some day. Should we become totally lost in the process wouldn't it be great to receive some merciful help? This book offers a respectful approach to hauntings and also respects the reader.

    It is not meant to give terrifying evidence of 'ghosts' and then send you to bed with frightening images and no answers. The usual terror and evil surrounding the subject is redirected into compassion. For instance, what if you or a loved one were lost and hurting and unable to call for help? You might attempt to communicate in ways that may be perceived as frightening.

    It is mentioned that a small number of 'ghosts' can have nasty temperaments just as some of us in the flesh can. But it is suggested that 'ghosts', even if they seem unpleasant, are almost always lost and fearful people who's bodies have died.

    While I am skeptical of the mentioned use of ghost boxes for EVP, electronic voice phenomena, I also have no experience with the devices. It does not affect my belief in the author's sincerity or his knowledge of earthbound souls. He goes after the subject with integrity to find the true story.

    Any lost soul, concerned loved ones or anyone exposed to a haunting will surely appreciate Louis Charles's persistence to understand and educate. For those who have any interest in ghosts I recommend this book.

    FINALLY, A Writer Who Redefines 'Ghosts'

    Louis Charles has the most gentle manner of writing that he immediately, from the first page in HELPING GHOSTS: A Guide to Understanding Lost Spirits, ushers us into a realm of thinking that should provide solace and wisdom to everyone who reads this fine book. Charles is not a quirky guy who is out to make a buck on 1) the current infatuation with paranormal activities as played out in the obsession with vampires/werewolves/ or main characters from popular novels who guide the earthbound family or friends along the path of discovery of a savage deed or 2) play on the vulnerability of people who have suffered loss of a loved one and are seeking communication with them in the world of spirits. No. Charles comes form a background of scientific investigation and research and many hours and years of studying his topic and is not out to provide Hollywood explanations, but to help us rethink the world of 'ghosts/spirits'. Yes, he uses some religious references: who in the usually debunking crowd of zealots fearing what Charles is doing as work of the devil would dare to deny one very important aspect of the Trinity - the Holy Spirit or Holy Ghost, depending on the translation of the scriptures the reader knows well? But since indeed there are religious etiologies for the concept of spirits, then approaching what Charles has to share should be simple.

    Louis Charles presents the concept that there is no 'other side', no hokey vaporous world where moaning ghosts abide, spurred on by imaginations of children who in turn get their concepts from adults. Charles explains that ghosts are disembodied human or animal spirits and his explanation of this concept he shares in such a warm reassuring manner that it is nearly impossible not to agree with him. When people 'die' - leave this transitory corporeal vessel - the spirit within them stays present, seeking release or permission by verbal or emotional communication with loved ones still living so that they may travel on to the universe of all souls. He cites many experiments performed of visualized spirits, captured on camera or in sound wave changes, and has worked with many people who have had experiences with seeing ghosts and discovered why they are chosen: there is something in that spirit's being that needs resolution in order to place both spirit and those visited at peace. He has interviewed many people with near death experiences, found the common aspects of those events such as a feeling of peace, of seeing loved ones, of perceiving the beaconing 'light', to encourage us to believe that when people actually do die their spirits remain until they are ready or are given permission to finally leave.

    In writing a review about a book as tender as this, written by a man with such a love for his fellowman that he is driven to dispel the misconception that ghosts are here to haunt us, to terrify us, to cause fear, it is difficult to communicate to others the sincerity herein. Louis Charles is a compassionate person and writer who simply wants to introduce us to another way of viewing spirits that are around us needing us, befriending us. This is a beautifully written book that deserves a very wide reading audience.

    So What Do You Do If A Ghost Ever Crosses Your Path...?

    If you've ever had an encounter with a ghost or other disembodied spirit, did you fully understand the significance of the experience? If you've ever borne first-hand witness to a spiritual event, do you know precisely why it happened or what it represented?

    Throughout the pages of Helping Ghosts, author Louis Charles presents a wealth of information regarding the truth about ghosts and our spiritual encounters with them. Based on years of Charles' research and experimentation, Helping Ghosts provides the reader with eye-opening insights into the deeper significance of ghostly behavior, as well as instructional techniques for communicating directly with disembodied spirits. Granted, anything that delves into the world of the paranormal is typically met with skepticism, but Charles does a convincing job of presenting irrefutable proof not only that ghosts are real, but also that our encounters with them are much more telling than we tend to believe.

    Surprisingly insightful, Helping Ghosts takes the reader on a mind-bending trip into the mystical realm of the unknown. An enlightening read.
