Abstract : This study is about twin telepathy — the idea that twins can somehow know what the other is thinking or feeling. Many people claim that identical twins often sense each other’s emotions, dreams, or even pain. In this research, I looked at both what scientists have said and what real twins experience. Telepathy — the purported ability to communicate thoughts, feelings or information from one mind to another without using any known sensory channels (speech, writing, gestures, etc.) In other words: telepathy is "mind-to-mind communication without normal sensory signals. "Important caveat: although telepathy is a widely used concept — often appearing in literature, fiction and various belief systems — there is no reliable scientific evidence that it actually exists. I havealso created a blank survey to collect opinions and stories from twins themselves. From the research, it seems that while there’s no proof of actual telepathy, twins often act or feel similarly because of their shared genetics, upbringing, and deep emotional connection. This paper explores these patterns, gives examples from experiments and stories, and explains why twin behavior can look like telepathy even if it isn’t supernatural.

Keywords : Telepathy, Twins, Identical and Nonidentical Twins.
