Ghosts, Apparitions and Poltergeists

This book doesn't seem to be very popular with reviewers but I really enjoyed it. While there seems to be more of a factual history in the first half, the second half still focuses on history but with stories and here-say rather than specific dates and figures. If you enjoy reading “true” ghost stories, this will not seem that different to you and you will not be disappointed. However, if you want something filled with specific dates textbook-style, this is probably not going to be what you're looking for. It's not the author's fault you set your expectations for something different than what was delivered.
