About this title

About the Author:

TRUE GHOST STORIES BY HEREWARD CARRINGTON Author of “The Physical Phenomena of Spiritualism,” “The Coming Science,” “Death: its Causes and Phenomena,” “Death Deferred,” etc. Glossary of Terms Used Agent—The person who, in thought-transference experiments, endeavors to impress his thoughts upon the “percipient” or “receiver.” Death-Coincidence—A case in which an apparition or other ghostly phenomenon has taken place, at the moment of the death of the person represented by the phantom. Ghost—An apparition, a phantom. Some contend that all ghosts are “subjective” or purely mental (hallucinations); others that some ghosts are “objective”—that is, space-occupying entities, which exist apart from the seer, who sees them. These points will be found fully discussed in this book. Hallucination—A mental experience, in which a phantom is seen, a voice heard, etc., when there is no real external cause for this seeing or hearing. Hallucinations are more complete than mere “illusions.” Pact—An agreement, entered into before death, between two persons, that, whichever one dies first, shall appear to the other one. These are here called “Pact Cases.” [A Pact may also mean an agreement between a necromancer of[12] some spirit-intelligence, as in Magic; but the word is not used in that sense in this book.]
