For centuries, people have wondered if there was anything at all on the other side. The inherent fear of death and the unknown leads many of us to turn to religion in search of reassurance. And many often turn to the so-called mediums for help - people who serve as a link between us and those who have already passed into the afterlife. Are the paranormal abilities of these "mediums" real? Judge for yourself.
Teresa Caputo
Teresa's appearance is not very credible. Quite frankly, this Long Island woman looks like a real provincial fortune-teller, which is further reinforced by her eerie suburban accent. However, there is simply no scientific explanation for Teresa's abilities in nature: she repeatedly surprised viewers with knowledge that she could not have. In addition, Teresa has already been involved in the investigation twice by the New York Police Department - a girl medium helped solve one theft and put detectives on the trail of a serial killer.
Tyler Henry
Perhaps Tyler's abilities are based on some kind of physical congenital abnormalities. Some people do not distinguish colors, others know how to navigate in the city by smell, but Tyler just feels the truth when talking to a person. Most likely, this is due to overdeveloped empathy: Tyler subconsciously feels the truth in the smallest details in the mood of the interlocutor.

Monica Ten Lake
Major American TV channel ABC recently invited Monica to host its own prime-time show, and now Monica The Medium is considered one of America's most popular daytime shows. Monica Ten Lake claims that she is able to talk with the deceased relatives of any person - and a series of unexplained facts actually confirms these paranormal abilities.
Michelle Whitewe
Michelle Whitewe was named America's # 1 medium last month - what to say, this woman surprisingly combines paranormal abilities with a commercial streak. Whitewe summons spirits on the air, talks to the dead and does other things typical for a person of this profession.
John Holland
Even at an early age, John noticed strange abilities in himself - he always knew where his dog was running, where his mother lost his phone and why his father smelled of whiskey again, although he had just returned from work. The boy decided not to focus on the paranormal, but to devote all his free time to study. Holland became a brilliant and highly respected psychiatrist, but after a car accident he decided to reconsider his life. Over the years, the newly minted medium has made a name for himself on various television appearances and has established himself as a person who knows almost no mistakes.
James Van Praag
During his more than successful career, James Van Praag managed to become something of a celebrity in the world of mediums. His book, A Conversation with Heaven, remained on the list of America's top bestsellers for two years in a row; Van Praagh has appeared with Oprah Winfrey, Larry King and Phil Collins, demonstrating truly inexplicable abilities.
Allison Dubois
Hollywood has become a working field for Allison. During her career, the girl has repeatedly participated in official police investigations and even received several letters confirming her help from the department. Dubois recently announced that she is quitting the paranormal business because talking to the dead takes too much of her energy.
