What do Charles Dickens, W.B. Yeats, and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle have in common?  They were all members of one of the first established ghost-hunter groups, The Ghost Club!  While the original intention of the club was to debunk fraudulent mediums, by the time Doye joined the group, it was more about proving than disproving.  This is the story of the Ghost Club, and how Sir Arthur Conan Doyle went from being known as a man of logic, to someone whose desperate need to believe left him gullible and easily taken advantage of.
