Djinn Encounters
Hi, I am a journalist living in Turkey. Investigating the paranormal is one of my personal hobbies. In this book, you will read about some of my readers' experiences with djinns that they have shared with me. Of course, on condition that the personal details of those who told me these stories are kept confidential. As you know, paranormal subjects such as djinns, ghosts, etc. are very controversial. Naturally, the stories in this book may be met with scepticism from many points of view. Personally, I have many scientific theories about the content, causes and qualities of almost all the stories shared with me. However, my aim in this compilation is not to make a scientific analysis of the djinn experiences in the book or to propagandise any subject. My aim is to share them with the readers just as they were told to me; as personal horror or mystery stories. I hope you can enjoy reading them as much as I did. By the way; I recommend you to read the "Beliefs About Djinns" section at the end of the book before starting the book. This is a useful section that will both facilitate your understanding of the stories in the book and provide you with new information about the belief in djinns.

Lurking in the corner of your living room, perhaps reading this sentence over your shoulder right now, is an often invisible creature that is everywhere and nowhere. Djinn are the cool breezes in warm rooms, the materializations of your deepest desires, the monsters waiting beneath your bed. They have appeared in the stories of Muslim communities across time and throughout the world, but this is the first comprehensive illustrated guide to these beguiling creatures. Emmy Award–winning journalist Seema Yasmin and Pulitzer Prize-winning illustrator Fahmida Azim invite readers into the world of djinn, whether they are practicing Muslims steeped in the stories from childhood or are simply curious about Islamic culture and international folklore. Cultural and religious context, poetic reflections, and a collection of spooky tales are all nestled within a compelling narrative about the mysterious Dr. N, a contemporary scientist discovering the djinn realm. This book shines a light on a long-overlooked yet dazzlingly rich subject.
