clairaudience

Hearing unseen voices

Clairaudience is the supposed ability to hear things beyond normal perception—voices, sounds, or messages from spirits, the dead, or other supernatural sources.

The term parallels clairvoyance (seeing beyond normal perception) but applies to hearing: The medium claimed clairaudience, relaying messages from the deceased.
