Some people get spooked by horror films and others by Ouija boards, but are there really ghosts among us? James Van Praagh, a world-renowned medium and co-executive producer of the CBS drama Ghost Whisperer, believes the spirit world is closer than we think. James goes ghost-busting on the Paramount Studios lot with The Insider correspondent, Victoria Recaño. Their discoveries might surprise you. Then, Jennifer Love Hewitt, actress and star of Ghost Whisperer, discusses the unexplained occurrences she encountered on the set. Jennifer plays a medium on the show, but is she a believer in real life? Plus, Diane claims to be haunted by the spirit of a 10-year-old boy. She calls the presence “Jerry” and says he even zaps her hands, arms and legs when he’s angry! Dr. Phil arranges a meeting between James and Diane to see if the medium can communicate with the wayward wraith. You won't believe what James uncovers! Then, Mercedes says she's been addicted to psychics for 12 years and has spent nearly $4,000 a year seeking their advice. She even consulted with six soothsayers to see if she should appear on the Dr. Phil show! Mercedes’ son, Glenn, says he doesn’t need a crystal ball to see that the psychics are taking his mother straight to the cleaners. What does the future hold for Mercedes if she continues down this path? And, James performs readings for a few audience members. Don't miss his startling revelations that bring several people to tears. Join the discussion.

Find out what happened on the show.

05/15 Psychic Dramas

Quote From: teeka1234

I can't wait to see this show! I have had a number of paranormal experiences myself and have also written a couple of books on the subject. I've seen James Van Praagh before and have a movie about his life. I believe he is very honest about his abilities.

Thanks Dr. Phil!

Take care,
Martha Jette

The closest I've had to a paranormal experience is smelling cigarette smoke. In places no-one ever smokes. Here in the library where I use their computers. And, at home. My parents both smoked. I don't know if it caused my father's non-Hodgkins lymphoma. But, my mother suspected strongly enough that it caused her heart attack that she asked my brother to go through her purse and throw those damn cigarettes away. The "funny" thing? I've never smelt smoke in the house she lived, and smoked in, for 23 years. As for the power going off, and coming right back on, while I was watching today's show? The VCR came right back on, but the TV didn't. I had to turn it back on. Did someone say something "someone" didn't want me to hear?

Yeah....

Quote From: merlina777

Very easy! Just listen! How? Meditate and pay attention! I see my son with my 3rd eye, I feel him when he touches my crown and 3rd eye chakra, and I do get messages from him. Now my husband has full blown conversations with him. My son, Andrew, is giving my husband songs for a new music cd they are now doing together!

We are actually teaching with our asecended son. The information he is giving is amazing! We don't keep ourselves bogged down with religious dogma. We are open to our spiritual gifts, and honor them. I am a firm believer that religion is of man and NOT of God. Which Bible is everyone talking about?? Catholic, Morman, Witch's, Christian?? You take the core of every religion and there is truth, all the other rules and regs is of man usually used to control people and keep them in fear. That's why there are so many Bibles, rules and religions.

What ever religion brings you geniune peace, which means not condemning others' beliefs, knowing many roads lead to one, no one religion is "the one & only true" religion, well then, that is the right religion for you. Religion and Spirituality are 2 different things. We have a Jewish friend from Isreal and we share a Spirituality with him that is very cool. I am not religious but I am spiritual.

If anyone who doesn't believe in any of this and buy into the devil's work, well that's your perogative, I do not. That is not my truth. I honor that it is yours if that is what you believe.

I can't wait to see this show today!!

Brightest Blessings!

Ditto!!

Direct TV?

Quote From: wahumom4

I was watching today's show and my TV just stopped working on this show only. Every other channel on the TV works besides this one. Did anyone else experience this?

Do you have Direct TV? We have this and what you described has happened to me several times.

Would you mind explaining further, how you 'directly' communicate with your son.

Thanks, Suzan

We 'humans' try to make it so difficult....I simply talk to him. I do meditate which helps get to the right place...but basically I just find a quiet place, close my eyes and talk to him. Then I imagine what he would say back to me...and then he is saying stuff to me...that is not what I am thinking and lots of things that I don't even understand until later.

Quote From: trentj23

It doesn't matter if you believe in ghosts or not. Van Praagh is FISHING: He makes guesses...when they are wrong he makes it look like the person just couldn't find the connection. When he finds a hit he plays it up. Watch for it and you will see it.

Everything Van Praag said about Dr Phil's father I already knew. Just from my years of watching the show. A lot of the other things Van Praag knew, is common knowledge to those who know where to look. Such as police reports. And, he has been wrong. Claimed to have a vision of Shawn Hornbeck's murder. Yet, a search came up dry. And, Hornbeck was found alive, far from where Van Praag "saw" him "die".

Quote From: trentj23

LISTEN: James Van Praagh uses a method I think is called "FISHING." He guesses at what to say: "Is there a Brenda?" 'My cousin's wife is Brenda.' "I'm seeing Brenda and she's standing beside you." Etc. He will guess and say "I'm seeing a lot of books. There is something to do with books." The person will search their mind for books. If they don't come up with anything, it looks like she just didn't find the connection. HE IS GUESSING. When you see him in action, look for this. It is hit and miss, and he plays up the hits and makes the misses look like the guest just couldn't remember. I was shocked to see Dr. Phil not expose this guy for what he is. Again, if you see him again, and actively watch for him to guess at everything, and then accentuate the HITS and downplay the misses.

I agree. i am very surprised Dr. Phil had this kind of stuff on and called him an EXPERT. Van Praagh was talking and "fishing" so fast, just trying to make a connection of any type. It kind of disapponted me and put a new light on Dr. Phil to me. I still love him but I'm shocked.

The power went off, and came right back on, while I was watching. The VCR came back on, but the TV didn't. I had to turn the show back on. This has happened before, while I was watching, or reading, something really interesting. But, never during Dr Phil's show.
