Ghosts from Our Past - The Paranormal Book from Ghostbusters (2016)

This is the paranormal text written
by Abby and Erin in the
2016 Ghostbusters movie.
By now most everyone is aware that the classic Ghostbuster's has been remade, using an entirely female cast.

In this re-make a "real" scientist feels threatened when a book from her past re-surfaces and her job is put at risk. 

Ghosts from Our Past: Both Literally and Figuratively: The Study of the Paranormal is the book, straight out of the movie.  Only this version has been "updated" to include knowledge from the newest members of the team, Patty, holtzman and Andrew.

Ghosts from Our Past reads like a non-ficion novel.

First it gives you a look into Erin and Abby's childhood, and how they became enamored with the paranormal.

It goes into the history of ghosts and ghost hunting.

There is an interesting chapter on the different classes of Ghosts you might encounter, and more.

Since the Ghostbusters movie is a comedy, and this book was a thing to be made fun of in the movie, it has a few tongue in cheek moments of humor despite being written like a serious text.  It was written like serious text written by two young women who are insane X-files fans.

If you're a fan of the new Ghostbusters movie I would recommend this book to be part of your collection.

If you're looking for a serious history of ghost hunting, or real ghost stories, this is not a book for you.

I received a copy of this novel free from Blogging for Books, but all thoughts and opinions on it are my own.
