Chinese Ghosts Revisited: A Study of Paranormal Beliefs and Experiences
Do the Chinese experience ghosts, hauntings, ESP and other paranormal phenomena just like Americans? Or is their culture so different that the accounts in this book, collected in Hong Kong in 1980/81 and updated by recent materials over 30 years later, will seem bizarre to anyone else? Interestingly, in spite of clear influences from ancestor worship and Confucian, Taoist and Buddhist culture, parapsychological theories of apparitions from the West do apply to the Chinese.
