Customer Reviews

From ghoulies and ghosties and long-legged beasties...
The British publication of Supernatural Book of Monsters, Demons, Spirits and Ghouls is an excellent addition to any Supernatural fan's library of lore. Written from Sam and Dean's point of view, the reader is taken led through a fascinating narrative of supernatural beings. The book features both creatures shown in episodes (the Woman in White, shtriga, acheri, wendigos, etc) as well as many many others. The inclusion of 16-colour pages of photographs (sadly lacking from the American edition) in particular is very nice indeed.
I highly recommend this boook to any Supernatural fan.

massive fan of the series and book!
I'm a huge fan of supernatural anyway and this book does not dissapoint. Its facted based and gives the reader a wealth of information about creatures seen and not seen in the supernatural series. It has a herb guide and a piece about demonology which is really interesting.If you like supernatural BUY IT, if you love folkore BUY IT! I attempt a descriptive writing and have bought countless books on Faeries and Ghouls but this has been my best reference by far.

Not Bad But Come On......
Even I spotted some of the grammatical error's in this and I'm friggin dyslexic lol!

The book is suppose to be from the bothers point of view and for the most part it is, but the author gets confused I think and quotes line's like

'when Sam got possessed he ended up hurting Dean and Jo'[not word for word but you get the idea] this would indicate that theirs a thride person narrating the story or information and NOT one of the brother's, it's a little annoying but if you can ignore it [which I do frankly] then it's an excellent read and the information is great. I'm currently undergoing an art project. I'm doing
Dean's Journal and this book is going to prove VERY helpful. it gives you information not only on the bad guy's but on weapons to use, herbolagy, symbol's and exorcisms which is great because I HATE trawling threw the net for these little bit's and pieces.

It's a good book and I do recommend it but be prepared to put up with bad grammar!
