What is The Ghost finders : tales of some famous phantoms about?

This book could almost be called The Ghost Hunters Dictionary because the stories in the collection are about the most famous types of ghosts such as the Banshee that horrid, wailing Irish phantom; the Poltergeist an unseen destructive elemental; the Revenant a ghostly visitor from the grave and the Spook an American spirit in search of a body. To these one can add the shunned haunted house, the wildly galloping phantom coach, the terrifying disembodied head, and even that shimmering phantom ship, The Flying Dutchman. Peter Haining has gathered together a variety of stories about famous phantoms from all over the world, written by such distinguished authors as M. R. James, H. Russell Wakeeld, Lafcadio Hearn, Robert Bloch and Ray Bradbury. Whether they are investigating cases of ancient evil or modern psychic phenomena, the ghost nders come face to face with the supernatural in every story ...
