Hi everyone. This is the writer. This book sprung from out of my fascination with folklore and is part of a series which also includes "The Hiker's Guide to Nature Spirits.” Cheers.

A fun read. Not sure any of it is true and I probably won't try it at home, but it made a cute housewarming gift for my sis.

Finished for an April Fool's Challenge. Notable because all of the included recommended readings were published in the 1800's and because Feng Shui was included as a good-to-know corollary to house spirits.

Fun little read.

4.5, really liked it! Editor missed a few things but overall a really fun, wholesome guide.

[Linnea Karlsson · Rating 3 out of 5]

Whimsical, but I thought it a bit repetitive.
A fun gift for a new house owner with a soft spot for fantasy creaturs.

[Rachel Willis · Rating 5 out of 5]

This was a great read on the most popular spirits to be inside a home. The recommended reading section at the back is interesting as well (though somewhat short).

Cost a bit more than I normally spend on ebooks (especially from an author I don't know) but I don't regret the purchase. It isn't a long book but reads well and gives specifics.
