Those looking to make a connection with a deceased family member, friend or even a pet can head to Tommy T’s in Pleasanton in the coming days to see notable medium Cindy Kaza onstage.
Kaza said she welcomes everyone, including skeptics, because at the end of the day she is looking to help as many people get closure.
“The intention is to connect people with their loved ones who have passed away,” Kaza told the Weekly. “I don’t know who’s gonna come through from the other side. I just let it happen but I always tell people to be open minded … It’s always an adventure and no two shows are the same.”
From co-hosting the Travel Channel’s “The Dead Files” to appearing in shows like
“Fright Club” and “Portals to Hell”, Kaza has a long history of talking to spirits on national television. She has even appeared on “shock doc” documentaries like “Scream: The True Story, Ed Gein” where she tries to connect with not-so-friendly spirits.
Having seen her first spirit at the age of 10 when her school friend who died in an accident appeared at her bedside, Kaza said she has been pushing the limits of her other-worldly gift for quite some time.
In fact, she even said she has been coming to Tommy T’s since 2013 or 2014 and that it is one of her favorite places to work.
“I love the people that come see me,” Kaza said.
It’s also worth noting that she said work and not perform. That’s because she said she is there to perform a service, rather than investigate haunted homes as she so often does on TV.
She said bottom line, it is not going to be a scary event as many people might think when they hear the words psychic or medium.
“I’ve been touring the United States doing live events for over 10 years and I’ve never brought through a demon or anything like that,” Kaza said. “It’s not my experience, and it’s also not the intention of the event. The intention going into my live event is to help people with their loved ones on the other side.”
She also explained how there is this stereotype when people hear the words psychic medium. She said that a good psychic medium should be able to provide evidence, of which they have no prior knowledge, that proves they are talking about a specific loved one who died but that evidence doesn’t look and feel like what one might think.
“When you see movies like ‘The Sixth Sense’ … the movie makes it seem as though mediums are seeing full body apparitions all the time and we can’t tell the difference (between) somebody who is alive and someone who is dead and that’s very untrue for 99% of mediums,” Kaza said.
While she said she expects there will be skeptics in the audience, she isn’t trying to prove them wrong and make them into believers but rather allow them to decide what they believe on their own.
“My job is to show up and just do what I do and do the best job that I can and to help as many people as I can,” Kaza said.
Tickets for her shows are $25 to $35. Her show on Sunday (May 5) will start at 3:30 p.m. while her show on Monday (May 6) will be at 7 p.m. More information is available at tommyts.com.
