Seance
A
seance (SAY-ahnce) is, on its most basic level, an attempt to communicate with the
dead. The seance, or sitting, is led by a person known as a
medium who will usually go into a
trance and allow the
dead to communicate through him or her. More recently, this has been known as
channeling. Other forms or seance's use ouija boards. The Spiritualist Church is based around the belief that the dead can impart wisdom through it's ministers in the form of channeling and seances.
