Pascal Voggenhuber is a Swiss medium and noted occultist who claims to be able to communicate with the dead. Having become a sensation amongst Swiss and German audiences, in 2014 he was given his own four-part Swiss television program, The Medium--Messages From Beyond the Grave. Though Voggenhuber has been decried as a false profit by some who see his practices as a way to exploit individuals who are grieving or mourning, others claim his abilities have helped encourage a healing process and recover after losing a loved one.
