Book Description
Catherine Lim’s free-wheeling imagination cheerfully dispenses with all constraints to tell stories of that other world. Written with an exaggerated sense of earnestness and caution, the eighteen tales in this collection elicit in the reader the very goosebumps of terror she had herself experienced as a child listening to such tales. As an adult, these goosebumps persist for her. However, they no longer arise from fear, but from a sense of awe and mystery that she feels when she considers this large existential question: Despite our extensive scientific knowledge today, what do we know of the supernatural? What can we know of the supernatural? Catherine’s deep and abiding sense of mystery is reflected in the pronouncement by one of her characters in the last story in this collection: “I don't know, I don't know. I wish I did.”

Book Description
Take a Plunge Into the Ocean of the Supernatural As these twenty tales swam up from the depths of the imagination into the light of day or the dark of night, they landed in places from California to Florida and points between (with short layovers in London and the Middle East). The characters that inhabit them are a motley crew: a ghost, goddess, angel, demon, serial killer, zombie, prostitute, and, well, you must read these stories to uncover the stars, their stories, and their journeys. The tales all fall into the supernatural realm, some splashing around the edges of the water, others cannonballing right in. But be forewarned, much like a roiling tsunami, many have unexpected eddies and whirlpools. So, grab your life preserver and hold on... If you don't have the time or the inclination to immerse yourself in a full-length novel, sit down and spin through these shorter versions.

Book Description
Though themes of love, death and the supernatural are mainstays in the history of cinema, this text represents the first scholarly work to address movies that explore all three. Twenty-two films are covered in short chapters, from The Mummy through What Dreams May Come. A plot synopsis is included for each film, as well as a critical analysis exploring the relationship of each to major philosophical and literary themes. Finally, an exploration of the critical response to each film addresses the genre's reception by the public.

Book Description
Once upon a time not long ago, two responsible college professors, Lynn the psychologist and Kathy the literary scholar, fell in love with the television show Supernatural and turned their oh-so-practical lives upside down. Plunging headlong into the hidden realms of fandom, they scoured the Internet for pictures of stars Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki and secretly penned racy fan fiction. And then they hit the road—crisscrossing the country, racking up frequent flyer miles with alarming ease, standing in convention lines at 4 A.M. They had white-knuckled encounters with overly zealous security guards one year and smiling invitations to the Supernatural set the next. Actors stripping in their trailers, fangirls sneaking onto film sets; drunken confessions, squeals of joy, tears of despair; wallets emptied and responsibilities left behind; intrigue and ecstasy and crushing disappointment—it’s all here. And yet even as they reveled in their fandom, the authors were asking themselves whether it’s okay to be a fan, especially for grown women with careers and kids. “Crazystalkerchicks”—that’s what they heard from Supernatural crew members, security guards, airport immigration officials, even sometimes their fellow fans. But what Kathy and Lynn found was that most fans were very much like themselves: smart, capable women looking for something of their own that engages their brains and their libidos. Fangasm pulls back the curtain on the secret worlds of fans and famous alike, revealing Supernatural behind the scenes and discovering just how much the cast and crew know about what the fans are up to. Anyone who’s been tempted to throw off the constraints of respectability and indulge a secret passion—or hit the road with a best friend—will want to come along.
