The book was written to provide the most up-to-date insight into the afterlife and to give you a better idea what happens after our physical bodies die. Specifically, you'll come to understand that there are similarities and differences between ghosts and spirits and you'll be able to distinguish which is which.

Recap/Photos: Great Halloween Tea Event at the Strathmore Mansion!

On Wednesday Oct. 30, I was honored to return for the 3rd year in a row to speak at the Special Afternoon Halloween Tea at the Strathmore Mansion in Bethesda, Maryland. I spoke about Haunted Places in Maryland and Paranormal Investigations and about the special spirit named Ed. He's the topic of my newest book called "Kindred Spirits: How a Medium Befriended a Spirit."

 The mansion has wonderful afternoon teas filled with elegant sandwiches and desserts. Check their website for the next events. You'll love it. Where: Strathmore Hall Foundation, 5301 Tuckerman Lane (Strathmore Mansion), Bethesda, Maryland. https://www.strathmore.org/
The Strathmore Mansion 


The event was full of people! There was wonderful piano music in the beginning of the event and the mansion and especially the room were decorated nicely for Halloween. During and after my talk, there were many great questions and some people told me they found the answers they were seeking about spirits and Earth-bound ghosts.
Full house for the Halloween Tea

Fortunately, no one lived in a haunted house (that's not a good thing and you can read why in my books "Lessons Learned from Talking to the Dead" and "Ghosts and Spirits.")

It was a wonderful way to celebrate Halloween for me, and I thank Mary Mendoza Godbout, the Strathmore Mansion Tea Room
Lynn and Janet in the Halloween mode!
and Volunteer Coordinating Manager at the mansion, for inviting me and coordinating this wonderful event!

Explanations of What Ghosts and Spirits Really are on Halloween (and year 'round)

Halloween happens tomorrow, and if you're curious about the truth about what a ghost is, and what a spirit is, and the difference, check out Rob Gutro's updated/revised book "Ghosts and Spirits." It was updated this year and you'll learn all about the paranormal and read some amazing stories about hauntings in various places and how spirits of loved ones come through and give messages.   The cover contains a photo of the Ghostly face of an actor that haunts the Bird Cage Theatre in Arizona, as the visage appeared in front of a painting of an actress (that hangs in the lobby of the Bird Cage).  Available in paperback and E-book on Amazon.com (Get the version with the purple border, as it's the NEW version. Used copies on Amazon are the old version). 

 Paranormal Author Revises Breakthrough Book: "Ghosts and Spirits"

Look for the purple border for the new volume
WASHINGTON -- Author and paranormal investigator Rob Gutro has updated and revised his breakthrough paranormal book "Ghosts and Spirits" for 2016. The author's four books have all reached best-seller status in Amazon.com's supernatural category.   
"Ghosts and Spirits" was Gutro's first book, originally published in 2010. It was the first paranormal book to distinguish the difference and similarities between Earth-bound ghosts and spirits who have crossed over into "Heaven, Valhalla, Paradise, etc." or whatever people call the other side.  

"Look for the purple border to get the 2nd Edition. There are a number of 1st editions on Amazon.com under "used" - so make sure you get the revision."
"One of the most incredible stories in the book is about how my dad's spirit helped me prove to my own family members that he was at his own wake and funeral and around during the entire week of his services," Gutro said. "My dad's spirit also helped me find a number of things for my mother, who lived over 300 miles away."
The author, a medium, paranormal investigator, scientist and dog dad, provides proof that people and pets do communicate with us from the other side. He is a medium with Inspired Ghost Tracking of Md. He sketches out what ghosts look like who are haunting private homes and has received many confirmation from homeowners. He is also a parent to three dogs and is a volunteer with Dachshund and Weimaraner rescues.
"I wrote this book to provide some understanding of the difference between an Earth-bound entity and one who crossed over," Gutro said. Readers will learn about orbs, poltergeists, dark entities, the significance of ashes, what happens to murder and suicide victims, how to experience ghosts, how to cross them over, and more. He has learned that when it comes to spirits, there is no such thing as a coincidence. He cautions though that people should not jump to conclusions and think everything is a sign. "There has to be a personal meaning or connection," he said. 
Rob Gutro, medium, paranormal investigator
In "Ghosts and Spirits" readers will also learn how the author lived in a haunted house, how he experienced many ghosts in historic and other places.
Earlier in 2016 he published his fourth book, "Pets and the Afterlife 2," a follow up to Amazon's best-selling "Pets and the Afterlife," where readers will learn how dogs and cats have the intelligence and ability to send signs to the living after they pass. "Ghosts and Spirits" includes the author's first experience with pet communications thanks to his dog "Buzz" who passed and became "the world's best canine communicator." It was all of the communications from Buzz that inspired him to write his first book.
"I write these books to educate and give people understanding to recognize signs on their own," he said. He doesn't take appointments or do readings but people are always welcome to e-mail or Facebook him.
Rob maintains a weekly blog, Facebook and Twitter pages, where he writes about paranormal topics, and where people can share their stories or find other resources on the paranormal. The new book and his other books "Pets and the Afterlife," "Lessons Learned from Talking to the Dead" are available in paperback and E-book, on Amazon.com and other outlets at: http://tinyurl.com/hp92st7. Published by CreateSpace, Inc.
The author has been featured in the Washington Post, MSNBC, WBZ Newsradio Boston, "Coast to Coast AM" syndicated radio with George Noory, Paranormal TV's "Do You Believe," Paranormal Underground Magazine and U.S., U.K. and Ireland paranormal radio programs such as Unknown Paranormal Radio, Ghost Chronicles Radio, the Haunted Syndicate Pararadio Show and many others. See his website for other appearances and interviews.
