Psychic Detective - Psychic Abilities

Psychic Abilities

Abilities frequently claimed by psychic detectives include postcognition (the paranormal perception of the past), psychometry (information psychically gained from objects), telepathy, dowsing, and Remote Viewing. In murder cases, psychic detectives will often claim to communicate with the spirits of the murder victims.

As skeptics point out, however, not one of the alleged paranormal powers has been proved to exist.

    At twenty you have many desires which hide the truth, but beyond forty there are only real and fragile truths—your abilities and your failings.
