Psychic brainwashed 2 women into carrying out sex acts at seances to help contact their dead relatives

A fraud psychic brainwashed women into stripping naked and performing sex acts by claiming it would improve their chances of contacting dead relatives, a court heard.

Karl Lang is said to have persuaded his victims that nudity would 'enhance their psychic powers' at his seances because 'the spirits are also naked'.

The 49-year-old also told two female clients that 'being more outrageous would please the spirits', the court heard, and that sending naked photos of themselves to him would increase their psychic abilities.

The two women, both in their twenties, were tricked after asking Lang, who claimed to be the reincarnation of Jesus, to help contact their dead relatives, a jury heard.

One of them had hoped to communicate with her father, the other wanted to contact her grandfather.

Police were finally called after Lang told one of the women that for further progress to be made, she should allow him to touch her, it is alleged.
