Everyone loves a good ghost story. Perhaps the human fascination with the supernatural stems from the fact that most of us, at some point in our lives, have experienced something we couldn't quite explain. From a very young age James Van Praagh was aware of a dimension that most of us cannot see, and he has dedicated his life to explaining it to the rest of us. Ghosts Among Us takes us on an incredible journey into the spirit world that brings to light one of our greatest mysterieswhat happens to us after we die?
Van Praagh, the New York Times bestselling author and co-executive producer of the CBS series The Ghost Whisperer, shares his knowledge and life experience about ghosts, a subject that can seem to many of us both bizarre and terrifying. But when the world beyond is explained fully by an experienced guide, dismissal and apprehension can be turned into knowledge and inspiration. With incredible true ghost stories and surprising details about how ghosts actively participate in our lives, Van Praagh challenges us to question our perceptions and shows us how we can live more fully through understanding the world of spirits. Including eerily accurate readings, the author's development as a medium, and detailed how-to information, Ghosts Among Us is an all-encompassing guide to the supernatural.

- Great book!
- I'm not much of a 'reader' -- but this is an excellent book. It offers peace of mind about the 'death' of this life and comfort in knowing there is more waiting for us...... More reviews
- I believe
- James has a way of bringing the afterlife to feel like we are already there, we just aren't aware of it. YES there is a Heaven. I feel so much more confident knowing I have a true purpose in this life, as I did in many other lives. Thank you, JVP, this book puts a lot of worry to rest. More reviews
- Useless blend of near death experiences and general psychic non-sense
- I want to start this review by stating that I am neither an atheist nor somebody who opposes the notion of the supernatural in general. Quite the opposite: I have always been very open to and interested in near-death experiences, parapsychological phenomena, etc. However, I am very sceptical when people claim that they can see things that are not visible to the general population.

- Ghosts Among Us
- Fantastic read. JVP was on the Beth & Bill Show, Phoenix, AZ on Tuesday, June 24, 2008, when I got to work I checked Amazon for the book, had it by Wednesday.....sat and read it. It has definitely made me feel calmer about all things around me. A very insiteful read and fascinating adventure. It helped me cleanse myself of some "baggage" and view things More reviews
- Well-written and relatable
- Most of us have questions about "the beyond"; if one exists, is it here with us, are there ghosts. Ghosts Among Us is an excellent tour through the experiences of James Van Praagh. He has written this book so that the reader can understand and even empathize with those he seems to be communicating with in the after-life. This book does not seem to play-up his More reviews
