What exactly are you looking into doing? The dead are sort of just the passed. Are you looking for that traditional western seance where Grandma Jocelyn comes into the body of Aunty Paula, asking about her grandson's health?
What makes you think that a random stranger dead, demi-sentient, or sober would reveal their personal lives to you? I mean, If you went out on a public street and tried as respectfully as you could pulled a random stranger into a coffeeshop, and forced a coffee at them, do you think you'd be able to get them to spill their personal lives to you?
I don't really think that the dead are a very good resource. They're generally not as worldly as Egregores, and generally aren't as powerful as aspects of nature. I'd rather just call a friend for help then have to go buy a small animal to sacrifice to get one to come to me.
