Mediumship is also part of the belief system of some New Age groups. In this context, and under the name channelling, it refers to a medium who claims to receive messages from a "teaching-spirit". In some cultures, mediums (or the spirits they claim are working with them) claim to be able to produce physical paranormal phenomena such as materialisations of spirits, apports of objects, or levitation.[2][3]

Attempts to communicate with the dead and other spirits have been documented back to early human history. One of the most well-known is the story [[Witch of Endor]], who was said to have raised the spirit of the deceased [[prophet Samuel]] to allow the Hebrew king Saul to question his former mentor about an upcoming battle, as related in the First book of Samuel in the Jewish Tanakh (the [[Old Testament]]).
