Mathew Skurat, "The Mistery Psychic Medium"
Mathew Skurat is a Victorian-era-inspired Psychic Medium and Eclectic Witch based in Salem, Massachusetts. His interests root in this very special era that was steeped in Spiritualism and built ongoing relationship with spirit vs. one-night investigation. Although one-night investigations do occur, Mathew recognizes the great importance placed on building ongoing relationship with spirit. The name “The Mistery” came partly out of his love of the mysterious and arcane, and also a pun, him being Mister Y in some way or another, or Mr.y for short.
Because of this proclivity to the Victorian era, Mathew collects many 1800s antiques, some with spirit and some simply with storied history. He loves to cater for people, as the Victorians did, and he loves to conduct safe and sweet séances that connect people with their loved ones on the other side in detailed connected ways.
Since he was young, he has always experienced spirit closely, but it was swiftly taught out of him at this young age. As soon as he hit college on one of the most haunted and oldest campuses in Illinois, his gift opened back up in a large way. His clairvoyance bloomed to where he was seeing more detail than he could handle at the time, but he has since trained it over the last six years of practice. He has explored all over his college campus and had seen its stories come to life in front of him, stayed the night alone in the Lemp Mansion, and had many other adventures with more to come.
Most recently, and in the last year, he has worked with Psychic Medium and Good Witch of Hollywood Patti Negri (notably known for her recurring role on Travel Channel and Discovery+’s “Ghost Adventures”), amongst other great colleagues and mentors, to gain more knowledge and certification in mediumship and many other occult topics. In the last year he has been certified by Patti in séance, tarot, mediumship, and also an advanced certification in mediumship.
In his mediumship work, Mathew enjoys helping and connecting, empowering and providing spiritual services for his clients and students. He can be found doing one on one mediumship, cartomancy, charm throwing, spiritual guidance, and house cleansings/blessings, alongside traveling and providing these services at psychic festivals, spiritual events, and metaphysical/paranormal conventions. He also enjoys larger group and intimate séance, mediumship walkthroughs of haunted locations with and without other investigators, and gallery readings at events.
Liz Cormell
Liz has known since a very young age that she can communicate with something that not everyone can. She comes from a long line of sensitives and psychics; this gift has been passed down the female line for many generations. Prior to developing this gift Liz admits that it used to frighten her but now she acknowledges most spirits are just people without physical bodies.
When Liz was 17 she dated a guy who's mother was a Romany gypsy. This lady taught Liz to read tarot, using standard playing cards. This is a skill Liz practices, using multiple packs, and she provides readings for many people on a regular basis.
From 2005 Liz has worked with many paranormal investigation groups and undertaken close to 1000 investigations at locations all around the UK, Ireland and even the USA. She would love to investigate many overseas locations including Poveglia Island, Venice.
Liz has also been a practicing witch since her 30's and works mainly with elemental energy and the moon goddess. Recently, she has felt called by Morrigan and is doing more spell work using Morrigan as her guiding goddess.
Despite this spiritual angle to her life, Liz is a trained Crime Scene Investigator and Forensic Archaeologist so likes to search for rational and logical explanations before calling something paranormal.
