Every culture has the concept of people with paranormal sight or powers. Famous People Of The Paranormal explores the lives of these special people. From wizards of the past like Merlin and Rasputin to more mundane people of the present such as John Edward (Crossing Over) and Gerard Croiset, author Chris Wangler details their exploits while exposing a handful paranormal pretenders. With short biographies of esoteric pioneers, the book serves as a primer, including chapters on the famous (Houdini, Rasputin) along with lesser known (Reginald Scott, Gerard Croise, and Franz Mesmer).(This book may contain a sharpie mark on the top or bottom edge and may show mild signs of shelfwear.)
