re: Do you believe there are people who can communicate with the dead?

I don't believe that shite at all and never will unless it happens to me.

No.

How do you think these mediums do what they do? Earpiece?

In these churches where the preacher "randomly" picks someone from the crowd and ask them if they are dealing with this or that, which the person is usually dealing with. At some point in time, people are asked, when they first visit the church, to fill out a form, with general information like "are you dealing with any health related issues?" "What family problems are you currently experiencing, etc". They use earpieces.

As for as mediums. I am sure there is some type of strategy. They ask questions that give more detail than the people actually realize and it comes down to narrowing it down.

That's some evil shite-exploiting human grief for financial gain.

I don't really know how this works, but I would show this one my little ghost!

She can.

Most of the ones I know who communicate with the dead, I committed to the hospital over the years.

darth and I have had a few exchanges on here

I hate these asses that prey upon grief stricken families for their own profit and attention. Loath and detest them.

While i do not believe in them I do feel that the loved ones of the deceased should be open to seeing little signs that their loved one is near. Maybe they are a true sign or maybe they are just a sweet way of finding comfort. Either way it helps the grieving to heal.

TL:DR warning for below, lol.

For me, i have a pretty hanging crystal prism that was in my grams window for decades (my mom gave it to her). We children loved the rainbows it would make daily. I received it after gram died.

I hung it in my window but it did not do that. About 2weeks after my mom died I went into the kitchen and saw dozens of the rainbows on the wall. I told my ex-husband jokingly "look, mama and my gram are dancing in our kitchen". It helped my heart so much to think that my mom and gram were still with me.

Fast forward to a year later and i am in a new home. Prism has been in the window for weeks and I have not seen the rainbows. My sis came to visit yesterday and I told her it was in the window and we sat on the couch by it without thinking much of it.

Within an hour it suddenly created gorgeous rainbows all over the kitchen (it is on a string so it can spin and sway so the rainbows "dance" around the room. We were in awe. It was like being in the presence of my gram and my mom.

Then my pup started chasing the rainbows and we laughed at the thought that my mom and gram was playing with my pup.

Sis and I both feel that it was like mom and gram saying they were proud of us for how we have worked together to get thru the devastating last year (lost mom, my sister's husband and our younger sis all in a 3 month period).

Thanks I appreciate it

There's some pretty convincing cold readers out there, but if you do enough digging you can always figure out their trick. That's why you gotta find a good tarot reader, you can't fake that shite.
