Andrew Green (28 July 1927 – 21 May 2004) was an author and ghost hunter; known by the media as "the Spectre Inspector".〔 Although Green never claimed to have definitively seen a ghost, he hunted them for sixty years and helped to popularise the use of scientific methods in ghost hunting. He once famously hunted for ghosts in the Royal Albert Hall. ==Biography== Green was born in Ealing; his father was senior Air Raid Warden to the area. Green's interest in the paranormal was sparked when his father took him to an empty Victorian house in 1944.〔 He later said that while visiting the house he was overcome by an unearthly voice who told him to jump out of the window. On investigation Green discovered that the house had been the site of twenty suicides over the previous sixty years.〔 Green took a picture of the window he almost jumped from on his way out of the house. When it came back from the developers, Green discovered the face of a young girl in the window.〔 This image would appear on many of his later book covers. Green was educated at Borderstone Grammar School and received his science degree and masters in philosophy from the London School of Economics.〔 Although he hunted ghosts for a living, Green did not believe in life after death and remained a staunch humanist throughout his life. Green never claimed to have seen a ghost, except for the ghost of a fox terrier in the early fifties, and even that he could never claim to be sure about.〔 Green met his second wife, Norah Cawthorne, through his investigations in 1976.〔 They were married from 1979 until Green's death in May 2004.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Andrew Green (ghost hunter)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
