The Haunting of Borley Rectory by Sean O'Connor
£20.00
Marianne Foyster, Harry Price and the most haunted house in England - the perfect read for Halloween. 'Borley Rectory is perhaps the definition of an old haunt, still exerting an extraordinary grip on the popular imagination... Balanced, surprising and strangely moving' Mark Gatiss In 1928, Eric and Mabel Smith took over a lonely parish on the northern border of Essex.
When they moved into Borley Rectory, Mrs Smith made a gruesome discovery in a cupboard: a human skull. Soon the house was electric with ghosts. Within the year, the Smiths had abandoned it and the Rectory became notorious as the 'most haunted house in England'.
When Reverend Lionel Foyster moved in he experienced a further explosion of poltergeist activity with an increasing violence directed at his attractive young wife. Marianne was a passionate and sensuous woman isolated in a village haunted by ancient superstition and deep-rooted prejudice. She would be accused not only of faking the ghosts but of adultery, bigamy - and even murder.
The haunting, sensationally reported in the tabloid press, gripped the nation. It was investigated by Harry Price, a self-made 'psychic detective'. This was the case that would make Price's name as the most celebrated ghost-hunter of the age.
He recorded the evidence of 200 witnesses to over 2,000 supernatural incidents. This surely confirmed that not only did ghosts exist but, finally, here was proof of life after death. With the tension of a thriller and the uncanny chills of a classic English ghost story, Sean O'Connor brings the story of Borley Rectory to vivid life as an allegory for an age fraught with anxiety, haunted by the shadow of the Great War and terrified of the apocalypse to come.

Managing Psychic Abilities by Mary Mueller Shutan
£9.99
A Real World Guide for the Highly Sensitive Person Approximately 20% of the population is sensitive or in some way psychic. Being sensitive or psychic can allow you to understand the world in a way that most people can't, and to see beyond what others are able to. But for many of you sensitivities are a burden, causing overwhelm or even physical ailments.
Most information about psychic abilities on the market is aspirational, meaning that all of the books out there focused on "opening your third eye" or "becoming psychic" are not meant for the highly sensitive person. You don't want to become more sensitive, you may in fact be holding on for dear life because you are overwhelmed, panicked, have issues with sleep, body pain, headaches, digestive issues, and constantly shifting emotions. Or you might be mildly sensitive, but still need skills to manage going to work, or want to know more about how to become more functional while still being sensitive in this world.
Learn how psychic abilities and sensitivities develop, where you are on the spectrum of these abilities and sensitivities, and most importantly, the basic and intermediate skills and techniques needed to be healthier, more functional, and to feel in control of your sensitivities and psychic abilities, so that you can live in the world more joyfully again.
