free ghost hunting certification: Ghost of a Gamble: A FREE Paranormal Ghost Hunter Romance Supernatural Mystery J. E. McDonald, 2024-09-16 She might be broke, but she’s far from broken. With an eviction notice burning a hole in her back pocket, jack-of-all-trades blogger Bree Tisdale is running out of time and options. When a ghost-hunting gig lands in her lap, the skeptic sees it as a chance to pay her bills while debunking what she’s sure is just another scam. Except, her handsome and broody co-worker doesn’t fit the con-artist mold. The more she digs, the more her doubts grow, especially after enlisting her reporter friend for a public exposé. The ghosts of his past refuse to stay buried—literally. Zack Liller has learned the hard way to guard his secrets, confiding in few about his unique talents. Little by little, Bree’s infectious energy chips away at his defenses, making him wonder if he can trust her with more than the job—perhaps even with his heart. Just when he’s ready to take that chance, their investigation at the haunted B&B takes a dark turn, revealing one of the most maliciously active sites he’s ever encountered. And if they don’t risk their emotions, they might gamble with their lives. |

free ghost hunting certification: The Culture of Punishment Michelle Brown, 2009-10-15 America is the most punitive nation in the world, incarcerating more than 2.3 million people—or one in 136 of its residents. Against the backdrop of this unprecedented mass imprisonment, punishment permeates everyday life, carrying with it complex cultural meanings. In The Culture of Punishment, Michelle Brown goes beyond prison gates and into the routine and popular engagements of everyday life, showing that those of us most distanced from the practice of punishment tend to be particularly harsh in our judgments. The Culture of Punishment takes readers on a tour of the sites where culture and punishment meet—television shows, movies, prison tourism, and post 9/11 new war prisons—demonstrating that because incarceration affects people along distinct race and class lines, it is only a privileged group of citizens who are removed from the experience of incarceration. These penal spectators, who often sanction the infliction of pain from a distance, risk overlooking the reasons for democratic oversight of the project of punishment and, more broadly, justifications for the prohibition of pain. |

free ghost hunting certification: Scientifical Americans Sharon A. Hill, 2017-12-22 In the 21st century, reality television and the Internet have fed public interest in ghosts, UFOs, cryptozoology and other unusual phenomena. By 2010, roughly 2000 amateur research and investigation groups formed in the U.S.--ghost hunters, Bigfoot chasers and UFO researchers, using an array of (supposedly) scientific equipment and methods to prove the existence of the paranormal. American culture's honorific regard for science, coupled with the public's unfamiliarity with scientific methods, created a niche for self-styled paranormal experts to achieve national renown without scientific training or credentials. The author provides a comprehensive examination of the ideas, missions and methods promoted by these passionate amateurs. |

free ghost hunting certification: Confessions of a Reluctant Ghost Hunter Von Braschler, 2014-08-16 A how-to primer on safe ghost removal with accounts of the author’s most dangerous spirit confrontations • Includes lists of what to do and what to avoid and explains how to identify what kind of spirit you are dealing with and whether it is safe to attempt removal • Details the author’s difficult attempts to remove spirits from haunted buildings • Reveals how haunting spirits may not simply be ghosts of deceased people but may be powerful entities manifested from rage, hatred, and frustration Despite early recognition of his own psychic sensitivities and ability to see spirits, Von Braschler did not seek to become a ghost hunter. He entered on this path through a chance encounter with a professional ghost hunter. After training with her, he returned to Oregon where he began exorcising ghosts for friends and acquaintances and, as he reveals in these pages, quickly stumbled upon forces far beyond his level of experience. Sharing his true story of what can go wrong when ghost hunting, Braschler describes his training sessions with the professional ghost hunter and details his most difficult and dangerous attempts to remove spirits from haunted buildings, including an old church in Portland and an herbalist’s trailer on Mount Hood, where he encountered a spirit known to choke people in their sleep. He explains how not all spirits are simply ghosts of deceased people reluctant to move on from this plane of existence. They may be entities created from the rage, hatred, or frustrations of a building’s current or former inhabitants, and disturbing them can lead to dark confrontations without easy resolution. Offering a primer on ghost removal, Braschler provides practical lists of what to do and what to avoid when removing ghosts from a haunted building. He outlines how to identify what kind of spirit you are dealing with, whether it is safe to attempt removal, and how to approach the ghost and convince it to leave. Detailing his own intense and sometimes hellish battles with unseen spirits, he also includes an impassioned plea of caution to those who try to contact ghosts and spirits purely for entertainment. |
free ghost hunting certification: Help, I'm the plague R. A. Liebfahrt, 2025-03-04 Welcome to the one-man comedy show with Friedwald Fröhlich from Freudenstadt; today, however, not on stage, but in book form for reading. Friedwald's life could be so peaceful if it weren't for his dear neighbors ... With wit and irony, the first-person narrator shares his curious encounters with us: The famous twig hangs over the fence, the snow is not cleared properly, the music is too loud in the garden. Sometimes the vice squad arrives because they suspect a house of pleasure; sometimes the garbage collectors come to pick up the bulky waste; then ghost hunters come to clear up the ominous noises in the night. Torn between the two, Friedwald soon no longer knows what is right or wrong, allowed or forbidden, until he finally realizes: Help - I'm the plague. |

free ghost hunting certification: Women, Race, & Class Angela Y. Davis, 2011-06-29 From one of our most important scholars and civil rights activist icon, a powerful study of the women’s liberation movement and the tangled knot of oppression facing Black women. “Angela Davis is herself a woman of undeniable courage. She should be heard.”—The New York Times Angela Davis provides a powerful history of the social and political influence of whiteness and elitism in feminism, from abolitionist days to the present, and demonstrates how the racist and classist biases of its leaders inevitably hampered any collective ambitions. While Black women were aided by some activists like Sarah and Angelina Grimke and the suffrage cause found unwavering support in Frederick Douglass, many women played on the fears of white supremacists for political gain rather than take an intersectional approach to liberation. Here, Davis not only contextualizes the legacy and pitfalls of civil and women’s rights activists, but also discusses Communist women, the murder of Emmitt Till, and Margaret Sanger’s racism. Davis shows readers how the inequalities between Black and white women influence the contemporary issues of rape, reproductive freedom, housework and child care in this bold and indispensable work. |
