Houdini and his wife had a deal that whichever one of them would die first would try as hard as they could to contact the one still living. To confirm that it was truly him (or his wife) they came up with a secret message that only the two of them knew. He died first. She went to psychic after psychic and no matter how many of them claimed were in contact with him, none of them were able to tell her the secret message.

I call bullshit on all these so called psychics. I do, however, believe that certain people have the ability to talk with/through the dead, whether by demon possession or witchcraft. There are several examples in the Bible (if you believe the Bible) of this happening.
