Publisher's Summary

After a week of hearing ghostly noises, a man is visited in his home by the spirit of his mother, dead for three decades. She reproaches him for his dissolute life and begs him to have Masses said in her name. Then she lays her hand on his sleeve, leaving an indelible burn mark, and departs...

A Lutheran minister, no believer in purgatory, is the puzzled recipient of repeated visitations from "demons" who come to him seeking prayer, consolation, and refuge in his little German church. But pity for the poor spirits overcomes the man's skepticism, and he marvels at what kind of departed souls could belong to Christ and yet suffer still....

Hungry Souls recounts these stories and many other trustworthy, church-verified accounts of earthly visitations from the dead in purgatory. Included in this edition is a brief audio tour of the Museum of Purgatory in Rome, which contains relics of encounters with the Holy Souls: numerous evidences of handprints burned into clothing, books and artifacts - burn marks that cannot be explained by natural means or duplicated by artificial ones.

It was okay.

I’ve been doing a lot of reflecting as a Roman Catholic and this book jumped out at me. I listened to it in one sitting and afterward, I felt really depressed about the afterlife. It seemed to portray God as he was in The Old Testament...to be feared, judged us all harshly and unforgiving. I was left to wonder if I am EVER going to make it to heaven. I prefer the kind loving God from the New Testament. But I will continue to pray for those Hungry Souls in Purgatory.
