What is the most paranormal thing you have experienced?

I met a new co worker (I’ll call her Shelley) and she was super annoying. Shelley talked about herself constantly, I mean for hours on end without taking a breath or ever letting anyone else speak and she claimed to be psychic and a medium. I thought ‘yeah right’ and she asked me if feather had any significance for me. Shelley said ‘I have someone here, I think it’s your grandfather and he is saying feathers feathers feathers and it’s really important’. I thought about it and said the only significant thing about feathers is my 4 year old hates feathers with a passion. He thinks they are germ infested and always says they could have come out of the bird’s butthole and we laughed and forgot about it.

The next morning I opened my door and on my doorstep, arranged in a perfect square were 4 huge feathers with a tiny feather in the centre. I’m talking perfect geometric square. I took a picture of it and showed Shelley at work that day, I thought she’d get a kick out of it. (She didn’t know where I lived in case you were wondering if she put the feathers there to freak me out)

Shelley said ‘The four feathers represent four adults and the tiny one in the centre is a child. Four adults in your family are going to come together to protect a child who is in trouble’. I had no idea what she meant and just said ‘ok then’.

A few days later we found out a child in our family was being molested. We reported it to the police, but because of a custody order, the mother of the child was being forced to hand the child back to her abuser until the matter was investigated and went to court. So we decided to hide the child at relatives houses that the abuser didn’t have the address of and I was one of them. For three weeks, we rotated the child every few days between 4 of us until it went to court and he lost custody.

Shelley is kind of a mess, but I have to admit I looked at her differently after that.
