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???

Check around tomorrow the outside of your house. Check for cracks, depressions in the garden. My friend opposite lost her dining room floor, it fell into a stream which was there long before the houses were built. Happened to a few houses on that side of the road. Water does find a way.

Are you in the Conwy valley? If so - then I'm sorry, That might have been my fault!

What were you up to?

LawrenceSMarlowforPresident · 09/02/2025 22:14

I'm certain there is a rational explanation. Several options have been suggested. It may be one of those or something else. But objects do not launch themselves in the air for no reason. Either you were hallucinating or something physical (not spiritual) caused the objects to move.

North Wales does have seismic activity. There's a map here, scroll down to below the list:
https://www.westweather.co.uk/earthquake
You could give the British Geological Survey a call tomorrow and ask for the Earthquake Seismology Team. Check this station map for the most recent data: https://www.earthquakes.bgs.ac.uk/data/home.html

Stating the obvious but you don't happen to have a cat? Mine loves chucking stuff on the floor.

Failing that I'd go outside with a torch and check for cracks and others signs of subsidence and sink holes.

Oh that could just be a tease then ''Posting for a laugh''...

I didn't post soley for a laugh... it actually happened, the other poster just took one line out of context where I said I'd posted 1,for a laugh(cos I know what MN is like with this stuff) and 2,for advice

Has anything else happened since you first posted? Take your dog upstairs and keep it in the room with you. If the dog acts strange, barks at nothing, that will let you know if anything is there

Good idea to keep the dog with you.
Are there any other people in the house?

I experienced similar 12 years ago in Cornwall, I was with my then 17 year old son looking at his uni options and we stayed there whilst he visited Plymouth Uni. We woke up at 3am to the sound of someone turning on the light switch in the bathroom, both assuming the sounds were the other one, we opened our bedroom doors which were facing each other across the hallway in this lodge, realising it was neither of us we decided to leave the lodge, on going to the car we walked through the kitchen, every cupboard and drawer was wide open, we turned off the lights and left for the long 4 hour drive back home, as we drove out the lights in the lodge all came on. I thought is possible it could be an intruder but it was a small lodge and I cant see where they could have hidden.

Later I mentioned this in my review of the lodge and the owner said, it was probably the resident ghost! I will never forget that night.

I'm anti catholic/anti priest tho(don't open that box) so can't do this 😂

@Tacsi It doesn't need to be a Catholic priest, any priest of any faith can bless a house!

Not woo either but had the weirdest thing happen to me also this week. Moved into a new house, invited my sister and niece over (5) to see it. Niece goes into dining room/makeshift playroom and starts screaming literally about the angry old lady in there. We calm her down, nothing more said.

then three days later. Friend comes with her little boy who’s 3 and he starts saying and crying while playing in there pointing at nothing about the lady and she has a sad face! 😬😬😬 it’s literally an empty dining room with some toys I’d set up for them! They’ve never met each other my niece and friends son! So now I’m scared to go in there 😂

Eek!! This is so scary.

Christ, just to set some things straight for the "taking out of context" posters and the posters who don't "read" properly and the "posters" who just want to be dicks and stir up absolute shite on a totally innocent post but literally can't help themselves in thinking they need to make up absolute shite that isn't even there!!!
this Is a genuine post, happened, believe it, don't believe, who cares🤷🤷 I don't quite believe it, must be a rational explanation, was asking for one when posting, yes I said at some point was also posting for a laugh, but not cos it didn't happen but cos I know from years of being on here how much MN community laugh at this stuff, I have, i do and still will, christ I'm laughing at me and my incident, doesn't mean it didn't happen and even though I'm laughing doest mean I don't want to find an actual explanation for it!!! lighten up ffs, life is too short, thanks to all the genuine and absolutely non arsehole amazing pmsl replies I've had so far👌

Ah. When a student I used to live in Penmachno for a time. Loads of redundant mining operations under and around the village often linked to subsidence and rumbles. Just a thought!

We're British, we cope with stuff like this with humour / taking the piss.

Anyone who doesn't understand that needs to bog off IMO.

Ignore the deliberately obtuse, they love to dis-rail a thread and are incredibly boring.
