"In this enjoyable read, sure to entertain even skeptics, the Klinge brothers (founders of Everyday Paranormal and stars of the popular Discovery Channel show Ghost Lab) recount how they first became interested in ghosts, what led them to start their company, and why they decided to make scientific experimentation the hallmark of their practice."--Publishers Weekly

"When I think of Texas, I think of great food, the Alamo, and the Klinge brothers. Barry and Brad have built a solid reputation within the field of paranormal research. After experiencing their own ghostly phenomena as children, it was only natural that they indulged their interests and eventually formed an investigative group named Everyday Paranormal. Together they leave no stone unturned nor do they shy away from controversy in their pursuit of the unknown. Using science applied to the realm of possibilities, the Klinges have repeatedly shown that it is indeed plausible to contact unseen worlds. While exploring both long abandoned buildings, as well as places where the public still gather, the brothers seek to prove that the unseen may in fact be discovered in the most surprising locations. Chasing Ghosts, Texas Style is a fun, informative narrative of how any of us can find adventure our everyday lives."
