Collection: Michael Surbrook’s Ghosts, Ghouls, and Golems

Until the invention of reliable and effective forms of artificial lighting, the setting sun indicated the end of man’s control of the world around him. With no sun, he couldn’t see, and when denied sight man was virtually helpless in the dark. It didn’t help matters that there were animals who could virtually see in the dark and moved about with ease in the middle of the night. So, man assigned magical powers to creatures able to do what he couldn’t. With time, he even created new denizens of the supernatural from his imagination and religious beliefs.

Or did he?

At great personal risk to his life, sanity, and very soul, award winning author and paranormal investigator Michael Surbrook has traveled the globe, exploring its darkest corners in a never-ending effort to get at the truth behind the legend. From the haunted attics of New England, to the steaming jungles of Southeast Asia, to the ruins of strife-torn Eastern Europe, no fable is too fantastic, no legend too horrifying, and no occultism too obscure to escape his firm Fortean grasp!
