Kim Russo

Kim Russo is an accomplished, highly sought-after medium who has been communicating with spirits for nearly two decades. Fluent in the language of the spirit world, Russo has helped friends, family and clients confront the fears that haunt them most, and embrace the truths that bring increased light, love and understanding into their lives.

The word of Russo’s gift spread wide, and she quickly found herself appearing in the A&E hit series "Paranormal State" and "Psychic Kids" as well as Bio Channel’s "Celebrity Ghost Stories." These opportunities paved the way for her own series, "The Haunting Of...," which became the No. 1 series on LMN. Lasting six seasons and nearly 80 episodes, "The Haunting Of..." features Russo week after week taking a celebrity back to the place where they experienced the paranormal. In each episode, Russo unravels the mystery while also uncovering deep personal moments from the celebrity’s past. This series led to A+E Networks green-lighting another series for Russo called "Psychic Intervention." In this emotional six-episode run, Russo turned her attention to helping families in dire crisis by connecting them to the other side for a spiritual kind of counseling. With the success of these programs, A&E decided to bring back its popular weekly paranormal series, "Celebrity Ghost Stories," featuring Kim Russo as the show's psychic medium and host. The series premiere was Wednesday, April 8, 2020, at 10 p.m. ET/PT.

A self-proclaimed skeptic, Russo always wants proof before she believes things to be true. Therefore, she willingly became a certified medium by The Forever Family Foundation in 2005 and The Windbridge Institute for Applied Research in Human Potential in 2011, both of which subjected her to a battery of double-blind tests to prove the accuracy of her readings. Both organizations are dedicated and committed to proving the existence of life after death by integrating mediumship along with scientific studies. Being accredited is no easy feat, and Russo’s scores proved to be exemplary.

In 2016, Russo published her first book, "The Happy Medium: Life Lessons from the Other Side," from HarperCollins. Debuting at No. 1 in Amazon’s spiritual book category, "The Happy Medium" interweaves experiences from Russo's life with some of the best, most astounding behind-the-scenes stories of her celebrity readings from episodes of her Lifetime show, "The Haunting Of..." In addition, she gives readers the tools to access the energy that is all around us, including experiments and lessons she uses in many of her sold-out theater appearances and courses she teaches around the world. Russo's second book, "Your Soul Purpose: Learn How to Access the Light Within," is now available to purchase anywhere books are sold.
