Mid-August 2001, John Edward was at a hall in New York’s financial district where his wife, Sandra, was running a ballroom dance competition.
His phone rung; an old friend from high school.
John wandered out into the street and answered, but the “chaos, crazy” din of lower Manhattan swallowed their conversation. He ducked into a nearby lobby. It offered welcome quiet but, as the famous psychic medium told Mamamia‘s No Filter podcast, there was something else there. A sensation.
“It was the most eerie, ominous, evil feeling. I can’t even tell you,” he said. “I get goose bumps as I tell you this. I looked around and I looked at the security guard, and then I remember looking everywhere around, and I just was like, ‘Oh’.
“I walked out of the building, and I went to my wife. I go, ‘I need to talk to you… You have to find a new place [for the competition]; you can’t do it here next year.’ And she’s like, ‘What?’ I go, ‘I don’t want you to come down here. Go talk to your boss. You’ve got to get it moved’.”
John couldn’t ‘see’ the next year’s competition happening in that hall; he knew it would have to be somewhere else in the city. His wife pressed – why?
“I go, ‘Death, despair and devastation’.”
That lobby John had been standing in was the World Trade Centre.
