Thank you to the Warren's, they've helped many families in making sense of something that seems so different to us. And just because it's different some people are scared of it. And thats fine, everyone has their own opinion but i have a best friend that her house was haunted and still is to this day and the Warren's did all they could to help. Ed Warren passed away (R.I.P) and now Lorraine is getting older but still doing everything she can, helping where is needed. The Warren's have a special gift from God just like Sylvia Browne (Another good author).

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but when arrogance and stupidity cloud the mind, that opinion is valueless. As is the case with Stacy who apparently knows nothing of the subject on an up-close-and personal-level. Another good one for the Warrens

Athough I greatly admire and respect the Warrens very much and have read all the books they have written or co-written, I was quite disappointed in this particular venture. When compared to the other works of theirs that I have had the pleasure of reading, I was surprised at the slow and almost boring pace this book took. The stories were " safe " by their normal standards. The book was so mundane (by the Warrens standard) that I decided to take a look at when it was very first published (thinking it HAD to be pre-80's ) and to my amazement, it was published in '89! It irritated me the way the book left some of the stories open ended. Meaning that the rfeader was often left to wonder but not know, " what ended up happening? ". They were often vaugh in their discriptions of events and seemed to actually skip what happend to hasten to the end of the story. I don't know why they would wish to do this since the book is only 150 pages long. Took me less that 3 nights of casual reading to finish it. I was reading some of the other reviews of this book and was wondering if we all had even read the same work. I can't understand why some of the other reviewers were saying things like, " 'packs a paranormal punch ' ", and " ' best book on the subject ' ". It is so far and away NOT the best book on the subject that I was sceptical if the reviewer had really ever read anything that WAS truly the best book on the subject. Please don't misunderstnad, I do not agree with R. Stacy either when he/she says the book is "fiction". I know that the Warrens are true blue and I tend to believe their stories. However in saying that, yesterday I am mainly speaking on my feelings as a reviwer of this book. In my humble opinion, it was NOT worth what I paid for it and I was not pleased when I was done reading it. It is not at all written in the same vein as their book " The Demonologist " which completely outshines this book. I also very much enjoyed their book " Graveyard " which scared me and made me want to visit the spacific graveyard they were speaking of. I was hoping, if not fully expecting, this book to be just as good...but alas, it fell short. Sorry guys, 2 stars. Can't win 'em all ;-)

Unfortunately Mr. Stacy is someone who needs to "See" in order to believe. Had he ever experienced ANY of the things the Warrens write about--even in the smallest detail, he'd change his tune. This book gives great insight into just how far and bad things can get when you mess around with Ouiji boards, seances, and conjuring. It also illustrates just WHAT is making those "bumps in the night" and why. Take it from someone who grew up in a house with a lot of weird happenings--there is something out there and it is NOT just the house setteling on its foundation nor air in the plumbing! If you witness something move--it's NOT a ghost!!

The Warrens are mostly misunderstood. When Stacy in the very first review at the top of this page calls them "straight out of the middleages"---well they are demonolgists by God! Not only that but trained by The Vatican! And indeed they being some of the last and only in the USA, are without question very unusual people. You can probably count the number of church trained demonologists on one hand in the USA. And considering that they are classic demonologists, they do boil the bible down to angels and devils so to speak. I personally have been acquainted with them and don't get me wrong, I depart from their beliefs on a number of levels, but I can vouch for Lorraine being an immensely gifted clarevoyant. I think to appreciate the Warrens is to consider who they are. Which to tune ones perception to that askew demands a bit of patience that can be worthwhile. Their 50 year track record as genuine & concerned religionists speaks for itself and they are very kindly people. We are also living in a world which responds to them because they call themselves Christians and consider themselves kind of God's helpers. Confidence tricksters they're not.
