psychic medium
Talks to ghosts
A psychic medium is a person who claims to communicate with the dead, serving as a conduit between the living and spirits of the deceased.
Mediums may hold séances, deliver messages from loved ones, or channel spirits directly.
The term distinguishes this practice from other psychic abilities like predicting the future or reading minds: She consulted a psychic medium hoping to contact her late husband.
