He didn’t see this coming.

“Chats-with-the-dead” TV host John Edward is the target of a $150,000 suit filed by a dance teacher at a Long Island studio co-owned by the famed clairvoyant.

“As employers, they stink,” said Kimberly Ziscand, 28. “[And] . . . I don’t think he can talk to the dead.”

Ziscand claims to have worked 60-hour weeks at the Arthur Murray Dance Studio in Plainview — without either overtime pay or promised commissions.

The lawsuit also names Edward’s wife, Sanra, as well as studio co-owner Martin Rebello and Arthur Murray Inc., which has 280 such franchises.

“Perhaps if Mr. Edward treated his employees, who are actually alive, as well as people that are dead, Ms. Ziscand wouldn’t have been the victim of immense labor-law violations,” Ziscand’s lawyers, David Rosenberg and Michael Borrelli, said in a statement.

None of the defendants responded to messages.
