Vampires (Mysteries, Legends, and Unexplained… av Rosemary Ellen Guiley
YA non-fiction about vampires, from historical bases to Hollywood portrayals. Published in 2008, it covers Buffy but not Twilight or True Blood.
An intriguing introduction to this form of seeing not only the future but beyond the veil. Includes instructions on preparing your own black mirror from something as simple as a standard glass picture frame. Also the history of it's use and a description of the kind of experiences you can expect. I have minimal psychic ability and I'm taking a workshop with Rosemary this weekend, so I made sure to read this so I can go in somewhat prepared. Looking forward to seeing the results.
“The forces of evil know who you are and will try to prevent you from interfering in their activities. You, your home, your family, and your friends become targets.”(xiv)
This encyclopedia is an alphabetized smorgasbord of demons, devils, creatures, and critters. The historical context and backgrounds of these figures are included from around the world. There are a wide variety of entries that pertain to particular religious figures and rites that are associated with demonology and the spirit world. For the size and scope of the book, I was a little surprised at the small size of the bibliography references and sources. Perhaps it is not a field of extensive scientific study, but those that are affiliated are clearly passionate about the information that exists and this is present throughout the pages of the book. I was disappointed in the sheer lack of visuals, and those that appear are only black and white. However supernatural the topic, the creative artistry is lacking and the work is highly textual. This book may be of interest to teenagers that are drawn to the occult or for some entertaining trivia. This would not be a book that I would highly promote, but in today’s media swirl of supernatural books, films, and television, I’m sure it attracts an audience.… (mer)
