      A few years ago I went out drinking with friends. We had a great time, and everything seemed completely normal. We eventually parted ways and I headed home, and somehow there was a creepy atmosphere in the air. I still don’t know what exactly it was. I looked through my apartment and didn’t see anything out of the ordinary, so I basically fell on my bed and passed out.

      When I woke up the next morning, I quickly noticed that a ghost must have shit in my pants.

      Alright, I got one.

      One night, I was sitting alone in the house playing video games in the middle of the night. There was nobody else in the house besides my cats, who usually spend the night lounging around. Well, out of nowhere, I hear the microwave go off, as if someone pressed three buttons and hit “start” in the same manner and rhythm that I usually do. I was in complete disbelief and walked out of my room. I could see the microwave working from where I was standing, so I walked up to it, goosebumps and all, and manually turned it off. This happened one other time on its own, and I have no idea what could’ve caused it.

      I still shudder at the thought that it could’ve started a house fire without us knowing why or how.

        I have one too that i cant explain.

        I was at a friends house and we were watching tv, sitting completely still and being silent. Suddenly the lid of a metal cup (that was standing on a shelf above the TV) flied straight up, hit the ceiling with a loud bang, then came down again, and hit the floor in front of us. Naturally we were very spooked.

        We were looking for some explanation but couldnt find any reason this would happen. It was alot of force coming from nowhere.

        Made me open minded when it comes to these things.

      Best I can do is when I got off the train at 8:30 to arrive at work the 9:00. The walk from the train station to the office was 15 minutes, I arrived at 10:15. How the hell did that happen?

        Obviously, the only rational explanation is that you were abducted by aliens. They beamed you up, experimented on you, wiped your memory, and sent you back down. It’s the only rational explanation. Or maybe it was the devil. The literal devil. The guy with the horns and pitch fork. Again, the only rational explanation!

        Sure, but ghost stories are fun and it’s also fun trying to figure out what it could’ve really been.
