The dead do not wander around, free to communicate with us, so the only spirits that fit the bill are demonic. Does the Bible say this?

Yes of course it does, it many places. Here is one example:

Ecclesiastes 9:5-6 :

‘5 For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.

6 Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in any thing that is done under the sun.’

Or Ecclesiastes 12:7:

‘7 Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.’

The dead are not wandering around,; they are either in a place awaiting the resurrection, or they may be with the Father in heaven, but they certainly have no place in our affairs here on earth.
