Chasing the Dark

"A fascinating testimony to our nervous hunger to map the hazy, haunted territory at the edges of the rational. An engrossing, entertaining and distinctly unsettling read."

"Shiversomely eerie,…so impressive in its research and remarkable in all it uncovers."

“Chasing the Dark combines the spookiness and investigative thrills of The X Files with brilliant research and a flair for historical narrative. This enthralling book will greatly satisfy anyone looking for thoughtful and thought-provoking insights into our perennial obsession with the supernatural.”
 

“A fascinating story, at turns engrossing and utterly eerie. Tony Cornell spent his life searching for the supernatural, but he never fit the modern stereotypes of ‘ghost hunter’ or ‘paranormal investigator,’ and as a result his story is all the more intriguing, for here is someone who wanted to believe but wasn't willing to suspend disbelief at the expense of his own rigor. In following Cornell's lifelong quest for the afterlife, Ben Machell unearths a deeply human story—a story about our fears, longings, and what drives us to believe.”
