Models are developed to estimate properties of relic cosmic perturbations with “spooky” nonlocal correlations on the inflationary horizon, analogous to those previously posited for information on black hole event horizons. Scalar curvature perturbations are estimated to emerge with a dimensionless power spectral density $\Delta_S^2\approx H t_P$, the inflationary expansion rate $H$ in Planck units, larger than those from standard inflaton fluctuations, but consistent with current measurements of the power spectrum. It is shown that spooky nonlocality creates a unique, directionally antisymmetric signature that may be detectable in CMB anisotropy and large scale galaxy surveys.
