Others like myself were very skeptical and I mean very, After working in a nursing home for many years and on the night shift, I have seen things that can not be explained. I also lost both parents , both died at home and very strange things occur from time to time
So we all can believe what we went to
If you can't explain something, why jump to an incredibly complicated explanation totally dependent on pseudoscience and inconsistent with real science?
e.g. The dog isn't allowed to take a particular toy outside. The toy goes missing along with other things.
Explanation 1: Ghosts
Explanation 2: The dog misbehaves and can be a little sneaky at times. Maybe it forgot its toy and is playing with other objects.
Explanation 3: A person moved them and forgot about it.
Explanation 4: Something else that none of us are smart enough to think of, but that is rational and doesn't rely on pseudoscience.
2-4 seem more likely to me.
I already said earlier in the thread that I believe ghosts are your explanation 4, but it's just fun saying ghosts. Everything that I've posted in this thread has really happened, and until someone can explain something rolling up a hill against gravity or something being physically manipulated out of thin air, they're 👻 👻 👻.
Yeah, about that: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_gravity_hills
Yeah, pretty sure my driveway isn't a gravity hill and is actually sloped down. Didn't I post a pic in here?
Ghost is at it again. Today, the ceiling light cover came crashing down in the kitchen. This is despite the screws still being screwed in place. It's literally impossible for it to just fall out because at least 2 of the screws need to be backed out enough to get it around the third, as well as needing to be worked around the edge of the bulb.
My GF and I moved into an older house (1920's-ish) a while back, and before we moved in I told her (nay, WARNED her) that she was going to think the house was haunted after a while. She said "don't be ridiculous, I love this house."
Not even 2 months later, she goes "last night I felt a presence and could've sworn I saw someone standing in our bedroo.." and before she even finished the sentence I was like "GAAAHHHH!! I freakin' told you that you were going to think it was haunted after we signed the 1 year lease! Well you'd better make friends with this 'ghost' cuz we're not going anywhere!"

Also, wanted to update on the kitchen light. Went to put the cover back on and there was no way it just fell off. I had to back out the screws just to get it in place before screwing them back in.

The few times I've heard knocking in my house at night, I was able to finally attribute it to pipes in the walls/floors/attic. When pressurized water moves through pipes, or (in the case of hot water pipes) the water in the pipes rapidly changes temperature (because someone ran a sink, dishwasher, shower, etc.) the pipes expand and contract and move around and can make knocking sounds.
It can also happen at odd times when nobody is running water, as the hot water left over in the pipes from when someone used it hours ago cools down, the pipes contract and they can make all sorts of noise.

That's a very valid and scientific explanation for a knocking sound in a house. My bedroom door doesn't have any pipes in it though.
I also found the pic of my driveway that I had uploaded a couple of years ago in another thread. Bottom circle is where the ball rolled from (and where I was standing) up to the top circle where it rolled off the driveway and into the rocks.
