Psychics & Spontaneous ESP

Many people report having spontaneous psychic experiences, including telepathic interactions, clairvoyant perceptions of distant places, and precognitive dreams of events yet to come. Psychics have these experiences more regularly than others. Some have been studied by parapsychologists and others have provided leads to law enforcement. They are the subject of this subcategory of ESP & Psychokinesis.
