The Haunted Realm: Echoes from Beyond the Tomb

By Simon Marsden

Book Overview

The Alexander Technique, a revolutionary method of bodywork pioneered by the late F.M. Alexander, provides the key to successful body dynamics. Now, in this updated and revised edition, Wilfred Barlow's classic guide to Alexander's work explores every phase of the technique. Today, the Alexander Technique has a world-wide following and is respected as a major contribution to the fields of medicine, education, and psychiatry. Barlow, the foremost exponent and teacher of Alexander's work, explains how your mental, physical, and sexual well-being are affected by the way you use--or misuse--your body. He shows you how to reduce mental stress and muscular tension by becoming more aware of balance, posture, and movement in everyday activities.

beautifully done

this is one of the most beautifully photographed books on the the subjects of haunted places.The British locales shown in black and white,as well as the stories documenting the haunted places make this a great book for your collection as well as a coffeetable book.This is 120+ pages of delight be it in portrayal of haunted England or the beauty of the English countryside and stately manors.

An absolute classic for lovers of the supernatural...

I first came across this book in my high school library, about 1990. I fell in love with it.... Anyway, this is a beautiful book that features lots of Simon Marsden's infrared photos of castles, manor houses, spooky natural places, etc., from all over the British Isles and Ireland. A page or two decribing the ghostly phenomena associated with each locale is included as well. I spent nearly three weeks in Scotland seeking out some of the places in this book (and the book that followed, "Phantoms of the Isles"), but sadly, they didn't seem half as creepy in real life as they did in the book. I highly recommend anything by Simon Marsden...Happy hauntings!

The best true collection of ghost stories ever published

i first picked this book up when i was 10 years old. I'm 16 now and i still can't put it down. This is, without a doubt, the most chilling collection of stories i have ever come across. The contents of this book are psycologically affecting as well imagination provoking. I truly cannot say enough great things about this book. If you havn't read it-PLEASE do yourself a favor, and get ahold of The Haunted Realm.

One Heckuva Great Book

I've read this book probably 10 or 15 times, and I still haven't tired of it. The writing, the pictures, everthing is great! This is a must-read for anyone, even if they're not interested in ghosts or the occult. They don't come much better than this. That's just about all there is to say. Great book, must buy.
