Today while I was taking a shower, I heard what sounded like someone throw an aluminum bottle of hairspray across the bathroom and onto the floor. That noise was immediately followed by what sounded like someone picking it back up and putting it back on the counter. It's a pretty large bathroom, and I was showering in the whirlpool (we have it set up like that because I'm weird about baths). We live in my parents' house right now as they are living in Harrogate, England for the next few years.
Now I remember when I was around 10, one of my sisters was in this bathroom and came running out, crying hysterically, saying she saw the faucet on the bath turn and watched as the water started running by itself. My parents didn't think I heard any of this; I was around the corner pretending to be in my room, but I heard them talking to her about how they had heard things, too, but not to fret, that it was benevolent and would go away. I believe there was implication that the ghostly perpetrators were my Mom's parents.
I didn't immediately think anything was odd about the sound I had heard, until I poked my head out and realized that I had had the door shut, and that nothing was out of place. Stephen was in the living room playing Rock Band, and the pets were all outside. I got a little weirded out and just resumed my shower, trying to make sense of the noise. (Maybe something fell? Maybe I just can't see it from here and it fell. That's it. Stop being paranoid.) But nothing explained the noise of it being placed back.
What is stranger, still, is that a few minutes later, Stephen came into the bathroom and said "Yeah, what do you need?"... Come to find out, he said he had heard me yelling his name for several minutes but could not pause his game because he was playing online and you can't pause those. (Lucky I wasn't really in need of him, eh? LOL) He said he clearly heard me screaming "Stephen! Come here!"...
I'm a little unnerved, not sure what to think of this or if there is supposed to be meaning here. If you guys think there should be a logical explanation, please help me reach it. :) Already scared living here, what with the snakes in the walls and everything...
Thanks in advance ! PS-- can't wait to meet those in attendance Friday! :)
