Ghost Whisperer is a series that follows the life of Melinda Gordon, a young woman from the fictional town of Grandview who has the ability to see and communicate with the dead. Melinda lives with her husband Jim, and is the owner of an antique shop. Ghosts seek Melinda's help in relaying a message or completing a task that will put the spirit to rest, and allow them to cross over into The Light, a metaphor presented by the show as its concept of the equivalent of Heaven. Those who died after accumulating more sin than merit are led into an afterlife of restlessness. To seek redress, these spirits appear through an intermediary Melinda Gordon and she works with them to create a more favorable spiritual balance with those still living. Once the imbalance between merit and sin has been restored to a favorable plane, the spirits can then proceed to what is indeed their final resting place.
The First Season introduces Romano, a former cult leader from Europe who influenced his followers to commit a mass suicide in 1930. His own suicide transformed him into an earth-bound negative entity. Romano attempts to do the exact opposite of Melinda and gather earthbound souls and prevent them from crossing over into the Light. Also, Melinda suffers a huge personal loss at the end of the season.
In the Second Season, Melinda meets Delia Banks, her son Ned Banks, and Professor Rick Payne, all of whom, by season's end, come to learn of Melinda's power, with contrasting reactions, although Delia remains slightly skeptical. The second season revolves around the thinning veil between the living and the dead. Melinda meets a man whose arrival in Grandview sets the final events of a disastrous prophecy in motion, and the strengthening of the dark side over the Light, which may result in the death of a loved one.
In the Third Season, Melinda searches in her family history for answers as she gets closer and closer to learning the secret of her gift, her childhood, and her father.
In the Fourth Season, Melinda meets Eli James after a fire at Rockland University, who after his near-death experience, develops the ability to listen to ghosts. Melinda also says goodbye to her close friend Rick Payne, who leaves Grandview on a research trip for the university.
In the Fifth Season, we are introduced to Jim and Melinda's son, Aiden Lucas. Melinda fears that her son will be in great danger, because he seems to be more powerful than she is. He can see the 'shinies and the shadows'.
