A Ghost in Every House

Dreaming of succesfully hunting and sighting ghosts is one thing. Taking the steps to actually live that dream is another. You have your own reasons for wanting to search out ghosts and spirits. Perhaps you want to learn more about life after death. Perhaps you'd like to experience the thrill of your first paranormal encounter. Maybe you'd like to establish your own paranormal research or ghost hunting group to investigate purported hauntings in your area. Perhaps you're simply looking for a bit of extra excitement in your life. Or maybe you'd like to enjoy one or more of these benefits while helping others to better understand and deal with strange paranormal events that may be going on around them. Whatever your reasons, they're what make your situation and approach unique, and why you need real answers. You will get the tools and information necessary to help you find the best hauntings and the houses, graveyards, structures, roads and sites most likely to display ghost and spirit activity.

Digital Library

A digital library is a library in which collections are stored in digital formats (as opposed to print, microform, or other media) and accessible by computers. The digital content may be stored locally, or accessed remotely via computer networks. A digital library is a type of information retrieval system.
- TheFreeDictionary.com

Digital libraries can store much more information than traditional libraries and have many advantages over them. There are many academic libraries in which books, research papers, theses, and other publications have been digitized. Many digital libraries are available to the general public for free. Also, there are many online digital libraries that can be accessed for a small fee.
