Astral beings speak to us...

People have tried to communicate with spirits for centuries. One way to communicate with them is through a seance. The word seance originated from a French word which means "seat", "session" or "sitting". Usually, a seance involves a medium, which means a person who can see and speak to the dead. In some cases, the medium is temporarily possessed by the spirit as a way for the spirit to come forward or to come through. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Séance
 
The show "Most Haunted" on Travel Channel does a seance on every episode. Their previous main medium, Derek Acorah, got increasingly violent when he's possessed by a spirit. He would scream in other crews' faces and almost shove them at times, if not being held down by the others. He was dropped from the show because it was discovered that he was faking the possessions. According to Dr, Ciaran O'Keeffe, names would be whispered in his ears before the show begins to shoot.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oEP0usvErRI

I believe in seance because I did it with a couple of friends years ago when I was in 7th grade. It worked because the spirit really came. The spirit was easy to get rid of. Who knows what might've happened if the spirit was hard to get rid of. Anyone who says that seance is a bunch of bull haven't tried it before or haven't got the guts to try it.

i think that a seance is real i do agree with you but i am not brave enough to ever participate in one i think there are plenty of spirits around me all the time so i don't want to conjure up another but the most haunted i do not watch that show every episode i have seen it all seems so scripted totally unbelievable.

Man...the whole idea of a seance is somewhat disturbing, because it is not ordinary and at the same time proves that there is more to life than just tangible and physical beings in life. But...that's just my opinion on it.
