Would You Go If Invited?

I've watched many movies where in one of the scenes a séance was being held. "A séance or seance is an attempt to communicate with spirits. The word "séance" comes from the French word for "session", from the Old French seoir, "to sit". In French, the word's meaning is quite general: one may, for example, speak of "une séance de cinéma"." (Source: Wikipedia) However in real life I've never attended such a gathering. WHY? Well for one thing I was never invited. Actually though even if I were invited I would not attend. WHY? ~ I don't believe in it. ~ I don't really want to talk to any of my dead relatives or friends. They might be in a place of torment experiencing some things I don't even want to know about. I don't want to know. I would rather keep my memories of their life. ~ I don't see any reason to trust a so-called "medium". I don't know any that perform this service for free. FUN FACT: There are three sisters given credit for holding the First Public Séances in 1904. They became famous and held séances for the rich and powerful. Wouldn't you know it? Their last name was Fox. * * * What about you? Would you attend a séance, if you were invited?
