About the author
Edwin F. Becker is the author of True Haunting (Authorhouse, 2011), an account of a reportedly real haunting connected to a building later investigated and, according to the book, filmed for a 1971 NBC broadcast. The book follows a couple who purchase a property previously occupied by a family said to have refused to leave even after death, and presents the case as verified by outside investigators. Written in the first-person nonfiction tradition of haunted-house narratives, True Haunting sits on the occult-philosophy and paranormal shelves, aimed at readers drawn to purportedly documented ghost stories rather than fiction. Little else is listed in the catalogue under Becker's name beyond this title, which appears here in more than one edition. Readers looking for ghost-investigation narratives tied to broadcast media, or for first-hand accounts of long-term paranormal activity in a single residence, will find that focus in this book.
