Dreams
I don't know if it is this movie that triggered this when I was young and saw it, but I sometimes have dreams where I can do these things, not the violent stuff or anything and not reading people's minds, but in the dream I can move things like pens on a table and such. They are so real and in the dream I get small headaches from doing it and worse headaches for larger things.
It's strange with recurring dreams, but this one comes back now and then.
