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.

Excerpt from Some Chinese Ghosts By the labors of linguists like Julien, Pavie, Remusat, De Rosny, Schlegel, Legge, hervey-saint-denys, Williams. Biot, Giles, Wylie, Beal, and many other Sinologists. TO such great explorers, indeed, the realm of Cathayan story belongs by right of discovery and con quest; yet the humbler traveller who follows wonderingly after them intothe vast and mysterious pleasure-grounds of Chinese fancy may surely be permitted to cull a few of the marvellous flowers there growing, a self-luminous hwa wang, a black lily, a phosphoric rose or two, - as souvenirs of his curious voyage.
