I tried doing different types of searches to inquire about the goings on in my house and have come up empty. So where do I go when I need a diverse group of intelligent people and responses? Why ATS of course.
Ok here's the situation.
I have been living in my house for 8 years. Up until 3 wks ago nothing unusual has ever happened in the house. It's not that old 35 yrs and I know 2 of the previous families that have lived in the house. No deaths, nothing funky has ever happened.
About 3 wks ago I woke up to get ready for work and I was in our bathroom upstairs and I heard the toilet in the downstairs bathroom flush. As the bathrooms sit on top of one another it was an unmistakable sound. I was the only one up at the time. Then about a minute later the downstairs door to our workroom slammed shut. This is a very heavy work door and makes a bang when you close it.
I was a little spooked at this point thinking we have a polite intruder that flushes our toilet and now is roaming our downstairs so I wake my husband to go "look".
Of course he finds nothing.
Later he and my son leave for preschool and work and it's me and the dogs.
My bigger dog is sitting in the hallway as she does when I am getting ready and she is looking at something like it was walking down the hall. She looks until her head goes all the way up as if someone came up to her and she was looking up at them. She didn't bark or anything just looked.
Later at dinner my husband, 4 yr old and myself were at the table and our ceiling fan turns on all by itself. I turn it off and kind of laugh because of that mornings events. 20 minutes later it turns on again this time full speed. I thought perhaps a short in the wire or something like that but we never use that fan and it takes a remote to turn it on. I don't even know where the remote is.
A few nights later the fan came on again and then everything was quiet until last night.
My son was downstairs watching Sponge Bob. I was upstairs folding laundry and BAM I hear the door slam again downstairs and went down to tell my son to shut the door easily.
He was sitting in the same position I had left him and at this time Danny Phantom was on. I saw the TV and it was on and the remote was way out of reach of my son. I asked him if he slammed the door and he said No that it shut all by itself.
I question him more and he said "No mommy it just shut."
Now he doesn't like any of the doors downstairs to be open because it spooks him when he is down there alone so I closed all of the doors when I left him to watch his show. I told him that I had already shut the door and he was insistant saying it shut by itself.
Meanwhile I had my back to the TV and he was sitting in front of me and then I hear the CSI show.
I turn around to face the TV and the channel had changed from Nick to Spike TV and CSI was on.
My son told me he was scared and booked upstairs.
Ok long story I know but I wanted to give as much detail as possible.
What is going on?
Everyone in my family has now witnessed these small but strange happenings.
Can anyone lend any insight?
Thanks ATSers for any help..
