Anybody here watch a TV program called Medium? It ran from 2005 - 2011, first on NBC then on CBS. It's about a psychic named Allison Dubois, who helps the Phoenix DA solve murders and kidnappings. Which was true, she's also done readings around the country and written books about it. As have many other psychics; maybe some, maybe all are BS artists, if so I have never heard anyone say so.
What is interesting is that blind tests have been done to verify what these psychics say they can do - talk with dead people who were related to subjects that the psychics does not know. IOW, the psychic does not even know who the person is that they are doing the reading for. The results show a high degree of success, usually the failures are a misunderstnad onthe psychic's part over what the dead person is trying to communicate. Supposedly the message from the other side ain't all that clear.
Is it true? Dunno, I've never had a reading done or know anyone who has. Could be, I prefer to keep an open mind about it.
