Sample idea:

Having discovered that dead people don't die but slip into another dimension, a scientist discovers a way of opening a window into that dimension. He knows he's succeeded when he looks through the window himself and sees his dead brother peering back at him. He knows that he can make a huge amount of money from his invention, by letting people come in and see their dead friends and relatives. He sets up small screened-off areas where people can chat across the divide privately - for a large fee. Anyone with enough money - and they cost a considerable amount of money - can buy one of these devices and set it up in their town or city and make a fortune by charging people to use it. TV companies use them to interview dead celebrities. But there are problems brewing on both sides of the dividing wall. On the living side, spiritualists and mediums are suddenly out of business and are determined to get their business back. On the dead side, the people in charge are not happy about everyone getting in contact with the living. They tolerated it when a few mediums did it, but now everyone's doing it and it's not right. They're determined to put a stop to it. Will they team up with the mediums? Or will their drastic actions also prevent mediums from contacting the dead. And now that all the living people know that the dead are there, what other means will be devised to contact them? What information and answers will the dead provide? Will it lead to a spate of suicides when people realise there really is another world to go to? Will the human race commit mass suicide to be with their loved ones?
