Summoning the SupernaturalThe strangest sensation flew through me; it was quite impossible to describe. It was almost like I had gone numb and tingly but I could simultaneously feel everything around me with greater clarity. My senses both dulled and sharpened. I could feel even the slightest movement of the air around me. I could start to distinguish all the different smells and where they’re coming from.
