Not what I thought it was going to be about. The first chapter talks about why demon and ghost and such are not real and they are figments of an over active nervous system. I will admit that's as far as I got. I was looking for something else. There are demons and ghost. This person's believe is that there is not and that they are just the body and mind of the person over reacting to situation.
