Funny paranormal mystery books

A paranormal mystery gives an investigator more to account for than a human suspect. A ghost may have evidence, a curse may obscure it, or a supernatural community may have its own reasons to keep a secret. Humor can come from the practical work of investigating under those unfamiliar rules.
