Question
what book tells the story of a king wanting to talk to a spiriot and God allowed the real spirit to return and talk to, the king?

Answer
I think this is what you are looking for.  


1 Samuel 28:6-12 KJV  And when Saul enquired of the LORD, the LORD answered him not, neither by dreams, nor by Urim, nor by prophets.  (7)  Then said Saul unto his servants, Seek me a woman that hath a familiar spirit, that I may go to her, and enquire of her. And his servants said to him, Behold, there is a woman that hath a familiar spirit at Endor.  (8)  And Saul disguised himself, and put on other raiment, and he went, and two men with him, and they came to the woman by night: and he said, I pray thee, divine unto me by the familiar spirit, and bring me him up, whom I shall name unto thee.  (9)  And the woman said unto him, Behold, thou knowest what Saul hath done, how he hath cut off those that have familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of the land: wherefore then layest thou a snare for my life, to cause me to die?  (10)  And Saul sware to her by the LORD, saying, As the LORD liveth, there shall no punishment happen to thee for this thing.  (11)  Then said the woman, Whom shall I bring up unto thee? And he said, Bring me up Samuel.  (12)  And when the woman saw Samuel, she cried with a loud voice: and the woman spake to Saul, saying, Why hast thou deceived me? for thou art Saul.

Expertise

I can answer questions on Biblical text concerning parables, of both the physical and acted nature. This also applies to prophesy comparing the physical with the spiritual.

Experience

I have been studying for 28 years.

Organizations
I am a Seventh-day Adventist.

Publications
Review and Herald. Discipleship Journal.

Education/Credentials
There are no educational credentials in the field of Biblical word studies. It is a simple five step process. Pray for guidance. Identify a text that may have a physical and spiritual meaning. Identify the key words. Look the key words up in a concordance and read the text to obtain the spiritual meaning. Substitute the spiritual meaning into the original text.

Awards and Honors
I am not aware of anyone handing out awards for Bible studies but there are a number of religious leaders that have used my studiess.
