so I'm in no way, shape or form "woo" buuutttt just been sitting on side of my bed texting on my phone and my soundbar for TV (which I've had for 4 years with no issues) just decided to launch itself onto the floor, has hit my foot and cut it, picked it back up thinking how weird 🤷🤷 went back to my phone and a bottle of water, tube of face cream and a lip balm on top of my chest of drawers then launched themselves across the room, pretty freaked out by this point but still being rational in my head, picked phone back up carried on messaging back a friend, looked up to think what I was trying to type and felt a big tap /slap and literally saw my phone fly in the air and land other side of room, trying hard to think rationally but feeling pretty spooked right now
😭there's a rational reason for all this, yes???

Have you seen the episode of breaking bad where they destroyed a laptop with incriminating evidence by driving by the police station in a truck with a ginormous magnet in the back.
Do you live near a police station?

never seen a episode of BB, do I need to watch this to find out why I've freaky shinaganes going on in my bedroom??
police station is 5/6 miles away

Yes - there is a rational explanation for it and it's nothing 'supernatural' or 'paranormal'. It's just a strange but unexplained event - and you might never get to the bottom of it. It does sound very weird though, and slightly unsettling!

What is your evidence for this assertion?

Hairyfairy01 · 09/02/2025 21:04

Are you thinking of selling / moving / renting / big changes in anyway at all OP? Anything in particular you were texting your friend about?

Bellyblueboy · 09/02/2025 21:03

Have you experienced hallucinations before?

Good idea to make an appointment with your doctor.

Shera12 · 09/02/2025 21:03

I feel like there is no good explanation for this. Whether it’s ghost/earthquake/sinkhole/carbon monoxide. Nothing about this is good.

I’d move.

Probably a mouse!

Throwing lip balm at her? 🤣

Is there a military base nearby, testing some sort of magnetic weapon? 😅

We're on the Anglesey flight path.

Does your fire alarms work? Could you be poisoned by carbon monoxide? Have you started any new medication? Could you have had a lucid dream and not realised?
If this happened to me OP I would've ran out of the house or froze 🤣

Can the sage wafters please explain to me how this works? Are poltergeists allergic to sage?
Would rosemary or thyme work if you have no sage?

Friend of mine has a house with a ghost cat. His own cat plays with it and it can be heard running up/down the stairs. He has heard children playing upstairs (there are no children) and workmen have left after being tapped on the shoulder. Their kettle was turning itself on which electrically isn't possible. And a guitar strummed itself when his wife was in the room. They just live with it.My daughter is desperate to go there!!!

It’s because of the OP in another post today not putting the huge old bible she found, back in its hiding space. Too late now.

Hahaha this got me

Tacsi · 09/02/2025 21:00

absolutely pmsl at some of these replies 😂but as a "non believer" in spooky shite, I'm actually quite spooked by this spooky shite😭 but reading replies and ingaging my rational thought, I'm convinced there's an explanation for it, even if I don't quite know what it is right now🙄

Years ago my nan was in her kitchen washing up, I was stood outside at the open back door talking to her and my mum who was also outside with me. I watched a kitchen knife lift off the worktop on the other side of the kitchen then launch itself at my nans back, it hit her then it fell to the floor.

I looked at my mum, she looked at me, then we both looked at my nan as she calmly picked the knife up and put it away like nothing had happened.

I have had loads of stuff like this happen over the years and I don't have an explanation for any of them!

SoNiceToComeHomeTo · 09/02/2025 20:58

I don't see how an earthquake, subsidence or a sink hole could make several objects fly through the air in an otherwise stationary and normal room.
If you are being serious OP and this isn't a joke, it would be worth exploring poltergeist activity, ie not a ghost but some kind of energy given off by a troubled person in the vicinity.

nope, Wales 😔

We do get little quakes in Wales. Around Bethesda especially.. check the local FB pages.

RedDeer · 09/02/2025 20:57

Do you have a carbon dioxide alarm? As a lot of spooky things in houses can be caused by carbon dioxide affecting our brain's. Just a thought.

raspberrieswithchocolate · 09/02/2025 20:56

I think someone has finally discovered how to become invisible and that invisible someone is now in your house. All you have to do is ask them to shed their invisibility cloak and reveal themselves. Problem solved.

Are you an English speaker 👹in North Wales, OP? If so, can you indicate your support for the poltergeist by singing Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau in Welsh - all three verses? Because that would be my first suggestion.

I speak "wenglish" would that have an effect???? 😂
