Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

What Was The Dalby Spook?

Doarlish Cashen was a small, isolated farm on the Isle of Man. There was nothing special about it, yet it became the center point of one of the most unexplained paranormal events of the 1930s. The Irving family had no idea when they bought the old farmhouse that it came with a mysterious tenant, a small animal that had the ability to talk, sing, and perform other strange feats.

The "animal" told the Irvings its name was Gef, and that it was a mongoose, an extra special little mongoose. Soon, the unassuming farmhouse outside the little village of Dalby, became an international sensation. Sightseers, journalists, spiritualists, and psychic investigators such as Nandor Fodor and Harry Price all came to see for themselves the "Eighth Wonder of the World," as Gef liked to call himself.

Who or what was Gef the Talking Mongoose? Was it a ghost? A poltergeist? Or an audacious hoax? Gef once told the Irvings, "Of course I know what I am, and you are not going to get to know, and you are only vexed because I won't tell you. I might let you see me sometime, but thou wilt never get to know what I am."

Discover why this amazing yet true story of Gef The Talking Mongoose has intrigued and baffled paranormal investigators for decades.
