Chip Coffey gets airtime for ‘Psychic Kids’ on Tyra show
Back in November we posted a letter from an ex client of the Paranormal State that was posted on the “EYE ON THE PARANORMAL”. Now we get another bite of some tasteless advertisement exploiting kids and their so-called Psychic readings. To assist on exploiting the show (Psychic Kids) was Allison DeBios.
You might recognize her name from the show “Medium”. Some skeptics such as Dr. Paul Kurtz and Dr. Ray Hyman say that DuBois does not have psychic powers. You can read more on Allison DeBios at Two Percent Company
This afternoon I walked into my apartment and was notified from a reader that Tyra Banks was actually entertaining this series on her show! I sat there and could not believe that this was taken so seriously. Although I caught the show at the final moments, I sat there trying to understand how one child was trying to explain why she had written down the number “three” on her notepad. As we said in previous posts here at GhostTheory, we believe that this show exploits these children and ridicules them nationwide for Chips own profit. Now I see that Allison DeBios has joined to assist Chip Coffey. The Amateur Scientist has written an excellent post about Chip Coffey and his shenanigans. The only vision I personally believe that these two see is their bank accounts growing.
Prior to the show they claim that there was some paranormal activity backstage and that one of the kids, ReAnna, claimed to see a spirit sneaking around the wardrobe area. Allison did go ahead and start answering questions from members of the audience, who decided to participate. From what I heard on the show, Allison had a one on one talk to the children on how to improve their abilities. I wonder, has anyone talked to these children and explained to them the emotional and mental harms.
I wrote this article because i’m really interested in your thoughts on this subject. Now that Psychic Kids exposed themselves on national television, I thought it would be a great opportunity to hear some more thoughts and I hope that some of our readers caught the show this afternoon.

Now that Psychic Kids exposed themselves on national television, I thought it would be a great opportunity to hear some more thoughts and I hope that some of our readers caught the show this afternoon. ……
The show was helpful in understanding some things, but I was hoping some of the kids would talk about seeing (shadow people) and blue energy light. We looked shadow people up and their is such a thing from what is on the internet. This is happening to my grandson and we don’t know what to do about it. Any suggestions? Where afraid to talk to just anyone. They will not believe us. A concerned grandma
Darlene,
Joe (author of the article) brought your comment to my attention.
I’ve read a lot of cases where these “Shadow beings” hang around homes.
This is no cause to be alarmed. The majority of these cases (high percentage) are that the shadow beings are benign.
Make sure your grandson does not have any mental stress or anxiety first. Psychological test can determine this as well as ‘children psychologists’.
If your grandson is reporting physical contact, then I would suggest you acquire help from psychics. (if you are in california, I can recommend a few that I personally trust). Try to stay away from local ‘ghost hunters’ since the majority of them are not equipped to handle this issue.
For the most part, people report these shadow beings throughout the world. Everyone from babies to adults have seen them.
Do not fear it. Make sure your grandson is healthy and not disturbed by these.
If you like more info, feel free to email Joe or Myself.

i caught sight of this on the internet and yet while it does not pertain to a child it does pertain to the subject of a ghost.
I was hoping that maybe you could please offer some advice, I’m at my wits end on how to help my mother. She has a “visitor” I’ll call him and she has seen him when she has her eyes closed? He ’s dressed in a flannel and she can hear him walking in his workboots. He has made physical contact, playing with her hair, sexual,etc.
I knew a physic a long time ago and took these classes and had circle he called it. Anyway My advice to her was to let this being know that he wasn’t welcome. He hasn’t displayed any violent tendencies, I hope he doesn’t. She has gone to a minister, who advised her to go to a priest. I don’t know about all this.
Could you or someone please give me some feedback on this, she lives in Virginia, I’m in New York so I can’t even help her or be there for her. Thanks, Meghan Bard
Meghan,
My advise would be to first start off with a psychological evaluation with your mom. No, not to say that she has some mental problems because she says that a ghost is touching her, but most cases when there is contact involved, the victim has had a troubled past and subconsciously manifested this through psychokinetic energy.
if she is healthy mentally, then most of the time the poltergeist phenomenon can be dealt with using a trusted psychic.
Good Luck.
I was wondering if anyone knows of any good books for a child to read, my daughter has been seeing people outside of windows at home, at school ..inside hospitals when we visit someone, it does freak her out a little but after seeing a show on Tyra about psychic kids she said..so its not just me mom. I’d really like to find out if there are some books that would help her learn about the gift she has been given and lessen some of that fear for her.
any suggestions would be appreciated
Sue,
I don’t know personally of any books that would be good for a child in regards to this, maybe one of your readers does.
I would recommend you take your daughter to a trusted psychic, to see if there is some extra sense. Then, as usual, I always recommend psychological visits, just to get your child talking and accepting this gift (if any) in their life.
I know this thread has been inactive for a while but I have to put in my two cents. Chip Coffey is a quack, a complete and total fake. These children he ‘helps’ do not get any better or learn to control their talents, he puts them into psychologically straining situations. And why? Because he has no idea what it is like to have the ability. Someone needs to explain to him that there is a difference between actually knowing about something before/after it happens without any previous information and getting a info packet and being able to implement it into his so-called readings. I wish there was a way to get Chip Coffey for false advertisement…
OH I so agree with many of these comments, are there children with psychic abilities , You bet ! As far as the psychic medium Chip Coffey his closet is full of skeletons,some day it will be revealed. Karma ya know !! Most of the players on this new wave of paranormal High Profile shows are not spiritual they work the internet and weakness of producers movers and shakers,giving free readings to those that can help them pack their wallets.Even offering sexual favors for fame and fortune. Self driven men hungry for media attention and Money which is the bottom line here.Not selfless as we are led to believe in Good moral households. The real heros are the unsung ones ..the plain old paranormal groups that spend hours gathering real evidence.The women and men that possess real gifts not exploiting the sad ..the bereaved and the lonely. So if you see a psychic on the screen and he or she gives this vibe Do what I do, turn if off and pray for the children that are exploited.Pray for the greedy and the addictions that drive these so called Fakes to the top.
