I always enjoy a good spooky/creepy story. What’s yours?

    I was facing a wall shelf with a stack of hard plastic cups wedged into it, and when I turned around I’d heard the cups fall to the floor. Based on how tightly they were wedged in there’s no way they could’ve fallen on their own. Although there was an open window that was adjacent to it there’s no way that a breeze could’ve knocked them over, and even if someone on the lower floor punched the wall it wouldn’t have knocked the cups down. Nothing else happened in that room that was out of the ordinary.

    Although I’m still a skeptic, I don’t have a reasonable explanation for this one.

      “Wedged” implies that they were under some sort of elastic strain. Is it possible that something like a footstep on the floor provided just the right unbalanced force to release that stored energy?

        I don’t recall hearing anyone on the floor (this was in a college dorm), but the best guess I have is that reverberations from a footstep/knock/etc knocked the cups over. Other than that, I’ve got nothing.
