Séance
A gathering intended to communicate with spirits, historically often led by a medium.
Séances range from historical parlor rituals to modern circle sits. Conditions (darkness, expectation, group dynamics) shape what people report.
Consent and clear house rules matter — especially for guests who are anxious or grieving.
