Is James Van Praagh Really Psychic? A Closer Look at Famous Psychic Mediums

How psychic is James Van Praagh anyway?  As one of the more famous psychic mediums on the “circuit” these days, one would think he’s pretty talented, right?

 Some say…..NOT so fast!  Van Praagh has had his share of detractors over the years regarding his TRUE psychic abilities and mediumship skills, and while we aren’t in a position to judge, some OTHER very famous folks apparently have!

Check out the video below of James respoding to critical comments leveled at him by none other than Barbara Walters, in regard to some of the things he told her to “watch out for” during a taping of the view.  (check out the full backstory, and the video, at the link below)

On July 17′s episode of “The View,” Walters told the audience that when Van Praagh had been on the show the week before, he had warned her of possible health issues. “Even though I knew that this was ridiculous,” Walters said, “I called my doctor.” She said that she went to the doctor and he told her she was fine. She said of Van Praagh’s psychic impression:

“I think it’s a dangerous thing to do looking at someone and saying, ‘Oh let me see, you have an elevated, there’s an aura, you have an elevated white blood count.’”Van Praagh, who told ET that Walters had “been very nice and accommodating to [him] before,” says that when he gave her his reading, she was condescending and “very nasty.” He said that Walters “misinterpreted what I was saying” and he considered Walters’ follow-up comments on the July 17 show to be “a stab in the back.”
