ABOUT THE SHOW
Melinda Gordon (Jennifer Love Hewitt) has a gift - she can communicate with earthbound spirits or ghosts who cling to the living because they have unfinished business in our world preventing them from "crossing over."
Melinda navigates between the dead and the living with her sometimes chilling, heart-rending and amusing actions as an intermediary between the ghosts and those they haunt. Never publicizing her gift, she accepts her unique abilities as a blessing and sometimes curse, but always helps her clients, living or dead, find emotional closure.
Inspired in part by the work of famed medium James Van Praagh and of Mary Ann Winkowski, a real-life communicator with earthbound spirits, Ghost Whisperer explores the spiritual side of life and death.
