A review by rainjrop
The Penguin Book of the Undead by Scott G. Bruce, Scott G. Bruce

3.0

While generally interesting, I found the large amount of Christian sources to be fairly uninteresting, just as a matter of personal taste. Unfortunately, Christian doctrine and storytelling had a large part in shaping the perception and history of ghosts and apparitions in the European, English-speaking world. I'd be much more interested in reading about ghosts and ghouls found in other cultures and religions.
