Eastern Paranormal

Shadows Of The Dark    

  From time to time we will be covering book reviews dealing with the paranormal. This weekend it is a book written by psychic researcher John Zaffis and his co-author Brian McIntyre called "Shadows Of The Dark."  

John Zaffis is the nephew of Ed Warren a renown demonologist who is now retired due to poor health. The book starts out explaining how his interest in the paranormal grew because of his uncle as a child and then leads into various cases.

  The link below is to Amazon.com where you can purchase and read other reviews on this book based on Amazons five star system. Based on a five star system I am giving this book a four star review.  

 The book gives us a small peak into cases, but really doesn't go very deep into them.  The scientific and photographic evidence is also a bit lacking in this book. You get the feeling reading this book that he edited out many of the darker details of the cases, perhaps for the protection of his readers.  

 I like the fact that Zaffis calls himself a "Psychic Researcher." He states the term "Demonologist," is to easily used these days, and this is from an older man who has dedicated his entire life to this field. I agree. He also covers issues that season investigators learn from the school of "Hard Knocks." One such issue is the fact that before being contacted about a darker case he also has activity in his own home such as tapping, smells, and what-knot. This was something I learnt from trial and error.  

If you are new to this field of study this is a great book, or if you simply have never had an experience with a non-human entity this is a good book to read.
