Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Ghost Stories: Collected With a Particular View to Counteract the Vulgar Belief in Ghosts and Apparitions What is a ghost? In the popular acceptation of the term, it is a visible appearance of a deceased person. It is called also a spirit; but, if visible, it must be matter; consequently not a spirit. If it is not matter, it can only exist in the imagination of the beholder; and must therefore be classed with the multifarious phantoms which haunt the sick man´s couch in delirium. But ghosts have appeared to more than one person at a time; - how then? Can he exist in the imagination of two persons at once? That is not probable, and we doubt the "authentic" accounts of ghosts appearing to more than one at a time. The stories we are about to tell will show, however, that in a great many instances several persons have thought that they saw ghosts at the same time, when, in fact, there was no ghost in the case; but substantial flesh and blood and bones. But what does a ghost represent? What is it the ghost of? Of a man or woman, to be sure. But does it appear as a man or woman only? Is it nude? Oh no! Oh shocking! This is contrary to all the rules.
