The World Center for Spiritualists: Lily Dale
Imagine a Victorian town full of mediums whose job it is to channel the dead. There is such a place in New York state. It's the town of Lily Dale, the historic home of the Spiritualist community for over 125 years. Christine Wicker, reporter and author of Lily Dale: The True Story of the Town That Talks to the Dead (Harper), joins host Larry Mantle to discuss this unusual town.
