To ask you to convince me that my house isn’t haunted?

I was flicking through photos from yesterday and realised that my there was an accidental video taken in the morning. You can hear us get up, chatting a bit to our daughter and then all goes silent. It’s too dark to see anything. About 20 minutes into the video, a rattling, roaring sound starts. It’s rhythmical, sounds like breathing with a rattle and repeated roaring sounds. This goes on for another half an hour then my toddler comes into the room and laughs hysterically at something. Then I come in and grab my phone.
There was only us in the house. No animals. No neighbours close by.
Now I am alone in the house with my one year old and absolutely convinced there is a monster in my bedroom.
Someone talk sense into me!

Washing machine? Neighbour noise through the wall? Gardener or worker outside? Heating?

Although tbh I cannot get past the fact that you watch over 20 mins of what is essentially a cosmic arse call Grin

I think it's probably likely that it's the 'unsound'.

It's generated by the devil himself and anyone who hears it dies within the year.

Or it's the pipes.

I want to witness this video Grin

TheoriginalLEM · 30/09/2019 21:59

What is a cosmic arse call?

FaFoutis · 30/09/2019 22:00

It is haunted. Get a priest in.

Seabiscuit1 · 30/09/2019 22:00

@JohnnyMcGrathSaysFuckOff I know. Telly is rubbish tonight...

@brightonroc Fabulous. Thank you. I will write my funeral plan then.

@Qcng

For gods sake don't listen to it!!

lucertola28 · 30/09/2019 22:01

Sounds haunted to me...

Qcng · 30/09/2019 22:01

Technology can do weird things, static, eminating soundwaves, basic interference.

The likelihood of a ghost monster is close to zero.

Can you upload it to YouTube ??

Whitejasmine · 30/09/2019 22:02

You watched 20 mins of a dark video screen? On a film of your family getting ready in the morning? Sounds dull!

Yes, from what you’ve described I think the boogeyman is under your bed...why not have a peep and see...?Grin

@Qcng

For gods sake don't listen to it!!

Oh no! Could it be contagious?

AutumnRose1 · 30/09/2019 22:03

Well, if your toddler was laughing, it's a nice presence!

Laiste · 30/09/2019 22:04

I'd love to hear it. Can you upload it? The important bit?

Seabiscuit1 · 30/09/2019 22:04

I would upload it but it begin with DP having a conversation with DD about my boobs... Bit weird if you don’t know the context.

You watched it for 30 mins?! Blimey.
Yes phone videos can pick up all sorts of background noise, might have been static, or picked up something in the house like pipes - especially if the water was running for shower etc.

HeadfirstForHalos · 30/09/2019 22:09

Edit out the booby beginning of the video and then post it 😁

Ledkr · 30/09/2019 22:59

Marking place for spooky soundtrack

TheSandman · 30/09/2019 23:04

Edit out the booby beginning of the video and then post it

or tell us the context.

StillWeRise · 30/09/2019 23:07

there is no such thing as ghosts
therefore there can be no ghosts in your house
QED

TiddyTid · 30/09/2019 23:10

Post it! Pleeeeeeeease!

My cottage is haunted. Very.

Dita73 · 30/09/2019 23:12

I promise you 100% it’s not haunted

JohnnyMcGrathSaysFuckOff · 30/09/2019 23:13

LEM an arse call is when someone accidentally rings your phone from theirs as they are walking along, phone in pocket. Used to happen more before smartphones though DH still manages with a samsung Galaxy
Cosmic as it was the universe getting in touch!!

Sunshine93 · 30/09/2019 23:13

If there is a ghost in your house it's one who is either scared by or enthralled with your one year old so I wouldn't worry.

There are no such things as ghosts though so more likely just a household noise.

GaudyNight · 30/09/2019 23:17

I’m more interested in why you watched 50 minutes of black video on your phone...?

TrainspottingWelsh · 30/09/2019 23:19

Wish I could convince you but you're definitely fucked here. In 40yrs time they'll still be a popular film franchise about your home. A tale of the malevolent dead, returning to the world of the living to make a poor attempt at impersonating a lion with laryngitis on an iPhone
