This article is about real world practices of speaking with the dead. For other, including fictional, uses of the term necromancy, see Necromancy (disambiguation).

Necromancy (Latin necromantia, Greek νεκρομαντία nekromantía) is a form of divination in which the practitioner seeks to summon the spirits of the dead in order to gain knowledge of future events from them. These spirits are called Operative Spirits and Spirits of Divination. The word derives from the Greek νεκρός nekrós "dead" and μαντεία manteía "divination".

Necromancy in history


Necromancy may or may not have a relation to shamanism, which calls upon spirits such as the ghosts of ancestors.
