UNEXPLAINED PHENOMENA

VANISHING / REAPPEARING OBJECTS

One time I went down for some soda. I picked it up and poured it. After that I had the top in my hands. For a sudden, my mind went blank like when you watch a TV show or a game. I did it for a few seconds. after that it disappeared. I was with my grandma at the time. we searched all over the kitchen and still couldn't find it. It would be beast if you could post a comment of what could of happened. robert <MPRAT a msn com > va USA - Thursday, December 19, 2013 at 18:51:52 (PST) I lose things all the time, some times I find them and some times I don't. But I know small things are easy to lose and, being that I am very forgetful, all these things can be explained away- except for this one that happened today. My wife had been blowing the leaves from the planter boxes onto the grass. My job was to pick up all the leaves in our riding lawn mower. When I came out there was about 3/4 of a trash can worth of leaves and debris to pick up. The leaves were piled up about one foot high in an area of about 12' by 12' under a tree in our yard. When I first started, I noticed that there were a lot of chopped up leaves being left behind like the leaves were getting stuck and not getting into the leaf bag on my mower. After several passes, my mower made a strange noise like the leaves were caught in the blade. I paused the blades for a moment, then continued. Now the leaves were being picked up very well. After picking up all the leaves, I continued to ride circles around the tree as our tree is a Sweet Gum tree and drops these little pods that stick to our feet. I made about 20 circles around the tree, so when I was done most of the pods were picked up and there was not a sign of even a single leaf. Now for the strange thing. I went to empty the leaf catcher, and what did I find? Just a handful of dry leaves from the last time I mowed! The shoot had a few leaves stuck in it, but no more than half a bucket full! Furthermore, there were rose branches and fern leaves I had mowed that simply disappeared! I had my wife and daughter look everywhere with me to find the mysterious clump of leaves that had to have fallen out of the mower. I even drove my mower up on a block of wood to check underneath in case they were stuck in the blades- clean! I even checked the engine compartment to see if the leaves somehow got blown in there. After an hour of searching, we found nothing that could have explained the missing leaves. It's winter now, so the grass is not growing. The grass is very short, (I lowered the mower blades to the bottom to suck up the fallen pods) so the leaves are not "hidden" in the grass somewhere. The wind didn't "blow the leaves away". I don't expect anyone to believe my story because I don't believe it myself. I have to believe that the leaves got stuck in the mower and got "shot out" somewhere. I just don't know where. If I find the missing leaves, I will be happy to come back and recant my story. Until then, this will remain the most bizarre and unexplainable event in my entire 53 years!

First I have Hypnagogia were I see things while I'm' drifting off to sleep, Like people electricity, birds monsters flying objects. I also suffer from migraines same as most of my family, My father nana and I suffer from migraines having dreams about the future and Sleep paralysis which can be very annoying. Other family members of mine have dreams about the future and my grandmother can see spirits sometimes and out of body experiences not that she cares about it. I also have people speaking to me just before I drift off and dreams of space and the end of the world the next day I am afraid of heights. I have also seen lots of UFOs orbs with the presence of other family members, dreams of walking into bright lights and people sticking needles into me. Also lights turn off and on in my room or stop working around me, also laptops tvs, etc. Also sometimes the things I think off sometimes happens like I make it happen and making candles go out. My father has weird fog form around him and I see creatures in the night when I have gone outside. zarah burke <zarah.burke a gmail com > Hamilton, NZ - Sunday, December 15, 2013 at 15:02:30 (PST) So last year i lost an 8gb flash drive. since then i have moved around a bunch, gotten completely new clothing, a new backpack, basically new everything. I had looked everywhere for the flash drive as it had almost a years worth of music production, graphic design, pictures, notes, etc. Let me stress that i now have NOTHING that i wore, had, or even used when i lost that flash drive. Yesterday while walking in the woods i heard something hit my backpack. curious i took off my back pack and right there in my left front pocket was that damned flash drive. Try to come up with some logical answer if you want. I am a very, very good illusionist, magician etc and i am also a skeptic, but if you knew like i do what the exact circumstances were then you would be just as baffled as me. tony fourpaws <tpalacio1979 a gmail com > bend, or USA - Monday, December 09, 2013 at 16:21:05 (PST) around 7 pm i burned my cigrete and put the match box on my study table...nd start studying.. around 8 i again feel lyk i should smoke so when i searched my match box it was not there on my table.and no one come into my room and no one has left.the room. i asked my rumate if he had found d match box or not.he said no. around 9.15pm he went to hav his dinner. and i was busy with my studiea dan suddenly i found that the matchbox is at the same place from where it has disapper i cant imagine what actualy happen.it got disappear and again it was back..few days before my rummate experience a diff thing he was studying in d other side of the room and i was nt there and he heard a sound . it was the sound created when someone stand up from his chair..but there was no where we ignored it.. two days ago my book was missing. i thought it was stolen as i live in hostel but.its not the first.one month ago a book of same topic was missng..there are other costly book on my shelf but why both the time the same book has to disaper. what to do.help me. jay <jogesh.gogoi12 a gmail com > guwahati, india - Wednesday, December 04, 2013 at 20:28:02 (PST) I have just dropped a bunch of keys. I heard them clatter to the floor but when I went to pick them up there were not there, and they are nowhere else in my flat. This is the second time keys have vanished. I have also lost a watch, a pen and one of a pair of cufflinks in a similar way- all in the same area of my flat. It as though I have my own private "Bermuda Triangle" Peter Of London WC, UK Peter Ivens <pmivens a tiscali couk jas> USA - Wednesday, December 04, 2013 at 05:56:30 (PST) A couple weeks ago, me and my friends were walking home and there's this kid. out of nowhere, he just appears on the sidewalk. a little later down the side walk, he disappears again, near a house. he didn't go in the house , because there was a hill next to it, therefor we would have seen him go up. but today, the house is missing. some people swear it was never there. but it's gone. overnight. leaving nothing but a strange star symbol where it used to be. it left no debris. i'm trying to figure out why or HOW this happened. Alex Smith <alexgeiser00 a gmail com > tucson, Arizona USA - Monday, December 02, 2013 at 15:44:57 (PST) Tonight I am home alone and waiting to go to work at 11:30 at night. I was entertaining myself with videogames and I was drinking coke. It was around 5:30PM when I decided I should eat something. I went upstairs and cooked some pizza then returned to my room. I realized I forgot to fill up my glass so I went back up to fill it with some more pop. When I opened the fridge the 2 liter bottle of coke was gone. I searched the entire house for it. And I still cant find it. All I wanted was some coke with my pizza. This is the first time this has happened. I am still rather freaked out. Alicia <alicia_jesperson a hotmail com xxxxxxxxxxx> MN USA - Thursday, November 28, 2013 at 18:50:54 (PST) Strange things have been going on in the house I live in since my daughter and I moved in with my mother 3 1/2 years ago. It started with things appearing in odd places; my daughter's shoes in a different room, a glass under the kitchen sink, a knife in a draw in the bathroom. Then about 7 or 8 months ago things started vanishing. I had a partial box of lemon squares in the fridge, the next day it was gone. Protein bars vanished out of a basket without a shred of evidence they had ever been there. The yogurts were the most bizarre. They would disappear from the refrigerator, only to have the empty cups show up in the oddest places: between our dryer and the wall, up on a kitchen shelf behind some boxes of tea, in a cabinet with cups and bowls when it had not been there the day before (it fell out of the cabinet on me), in a paper bag in a storage room. Then money started disappearing from my mother's and my daughter's wallets. A credit card of my mother's vanished..when she had seen it the night before. A partially empty cottage cheese container appeared ontop of a garbage pail upstairs. We also found an empty cottage cheese container and an empty iced tea bottle in a drawer in a dresser that is rarely ever opened. ( I also had a door slam shut..one that off kilter and leans in, but that is a different line of paranormal.) DEBRA BATES <mysterylady65 a hotmail com > WESTWOOD, New Jersey USA - Wednesday, November 27, 2013 at 12:21:47 (PST) This will sound weird to some since it involved money, but not if you realized that's not the only thing that happened in this house. My boss paid me my week payment of $675.00, as he usually does and left home. Money was tied to a rubber band and I pocketed it without making sure of the amount. I know him and trust him with those issues, so I didn't pay much attention to it. The money stayed in my pocket untouched tied to the rubber band the whole day. I finally left home and went to deposit the money in my bank, untied the rubber band and counted it: there were only $575 in total. Rushed back to the house and spoke to him who in a very calm way, he assured me he counted the money three times and made sure he gave me 675, and for what it's worth, I believe him. He is a business man, he wouldn't make a mistake this type. Im sure the money is back to him somehow, he'll count it and find it unexplainable. But a week ago, his wife lost her credit cards, and driver's license. Not to be found anywhere. We thought the kids had taken them. She found them days later in a shoe box that contains a pair of brand new shoes that no one can wear (too big yet). She reports to have mistaken other things as well before, and that when she offered a reward, all of a sudden things appeared as if it's meant for the finder to get the reward money. Now I can only recall things like these to happen before under the same circumstances: STRESS. There's a lot of stress in that house, and in between this couple. A some sort of explanation to how the mind works. Amalia C Oyarzun <pichinga2 a yahoo com > Clifton , NJ USA - Sunday, November 17, 2013 at 07:05:44 (PST) This is kinda funny and odd at the same time. But, recently one of my closest friends passed away. He was also my ex boyfriend so we'd been through a lot together and stayed really close. So a few odd things have been happening but nothing too unusual. But just today I was getting dressed about to get ready for work and I went to put on my drawer which is usually right in my drawer and it wasn't there. I ran around the house half naked looking for my bra! Lol. I checked the bathroom, my room, laundry, dirty clothes, all of my baskets and my drawers; nothing. So I just went and got a different bra and after I put it on I went back in the laundry room and when I went in there it was sitting right on top on everything in the dirty clothes. Am I going crazy or is this was really weird ?... Kristen <kristenester a yahoo com > Dillsboro, IN USA - Thursday, November 14, 2013 at 06:49:11 (PST) When I was in third grade so I was around 8 years old me and my family moved to a nice little town called Parkview in Iowa . Anyways from what I recall this situation happened I think when we first moved in because there still wasn't any furniture in the basement. I had just met my first friend and we were downstairs by ourselves playing. I told him that I knew how to make some pretty cool paper airplanes and I was demonstrating one that I made. Now just picture it was an average partially finished downstairs there was no furniture down there yet we hadn't gotten that far in the move. So I'm trying to demonstrate my paper airplane and how good it flys. So we stand against the back wall in order to give it the furthest possible distance to fly and I was throwing towards another bare wall that had a closed up fireplace that no longer was in use. There was white carpeting and then the area in front of the fireplace was ceramic flooring. So I launch the airplane and me and my friend watch its path of flight so when it landed we could run over to it pick it up and launch it again. But somthing really weird happened before my eyes that is still mind boggling to me to this day. The airplane landed on the ceramic tile area and slid into the wall beneath the fireplace and I swear to god that paper airplane disappeared into thin air . There wasn't any nooks and crannys or any gaps that it could have fell into. We had no animals at this time and my friend was right next to me so there is no way he could have snatched it real quick and he will attest to this. That thing vanished into thin air and I never seen it again. I am a very open minded person and actually because of this very drawn to the paranormal but on the same token I am a very practical thinker and believe there is a logical explanation to everything. There is ample information on ghosts and extraterrestrials and such actually ghost hunting now is kind of a fad and in the mainstream but having a hard time getting information besides for peoples accounts and testimony on they're experience on things that vanished but havnt come across a good theory or explanation to what happens to things that disappear. This is a real phenomena and things do for some reason vanish into thin air and I'm sure of it as I'm sure that the grass is green and the sky is blue so if anyone out there has had a similar experience or has a good theory on it I would love to hear it. This is what I know for sure that things do vanish or disappear and that there obviously is another dimension taking place in the very world we live but what causes one thing to transport into the next. Jack shaunson <Jacksonshaun64 a yahoo com > Lockport, Ny USA - Thursday, October 24, 2013 at 23:29:05 (PDT) I've had two events which are very weird according to me... 1)I had been listening to music on my brother's iPod and then after listening for sometime, I kept it on his desk and on the next morning, it was missing and we couldn't find it anywhere even after searching the house fully... Strangely though, I found the iPod in one of my brother's pant pockets(which I made sure to check before) after months where we almost forgot about it... My family was out of explanation for it... 2)I had been playing Computer games late in the night till 3:00am and then unplugged my USB mouse and kept it on my desk before going to bed... The next morning, I woke up and went to College and came back home to find my mouse missing... I asked my mom and dad about it and they said no one had visited the house on that day and they were also at home on that day fully when I was away.. We searched the house fully only to find no clue of where the mouse had gone to... It is very unlikely that someone broke into the house on that night just for my mouse while all the other valuables in home remained untouched!! My mouse has not still returned even after a month of its disappearance... So, does anyone else know what causes these thing to happen? Rahul India - Sunday, October 20, 2013 at 08:33:57 (PDT) Last Wednesday Oct. 16, 2013, playing my guitar I removed the capo that was on the neck at the third fret, and put it on the table in front of me, an hour or so later I went to put it back on and it was gone! It is the second time it has happened here in 27 yrs residence, on the previous occasion I was putting some shopping away in a cupboard and found a brush I had been looking for, so I put it aside for when I had finished putting the other stuff away, when I went to pick it up it had gone. It has not turned up in the seven or eight yrs since, while other DOP stories on the i?net, indicate it is not unusual for the phenomenon to strike after recovering some long lost object. They say Pixies have a propensity to borrow things, maybe some Pixie dude wished to serenade his lady love and just had to have a capo, in which case he is absolutely welcome, maybe I can hope for some Pixie gift in return. I would like my guitar playing to improve, I wonder if they can fix that up for me :) - Others say the Pixies bestow gifts, and if the recipient fails to return the favor things can go missing! Be that as it may, the day before the capo went west a dude came here to measure up for new window shades, he saw my guitars, and told me he had salvaged a broken Epiphone headstock with a full set of machine heads, from a pile of broken guitars he had seen on the roadside. As a non player he said he had no use for them, and just gave me the broken headstock before I could say no! I thought about giving him a return gift, but did not want to precipitate an exchange on the basis of such a casual acquaintanceship, as well he pocketed a substantial $um of money as a deposit for the shades, so I did not want to spoil him. That is not the end of it all, I checked the supermarket shopping bags one last time, in the off chance the capo would turn up there, and found the 50$ I had withdrawn at the checkout which had inadvertently gone in with the supermarket receipt. Martin Timothy <martin_t a tpg com .au> Brisbane, Queensland Australia - Saturday, October 19, 2013 at 16:32:11 (PDT) To the men in black under the care of the adjustment bureau, Subject: Missing object phenomenon. Any thoughts? Elders? Anyone? Let's solve a mystery, fight for the realm of reality. They say that some objects really go afloat with no apparent reason, they go missing just when you need em. Shake and bake now you see em now you don't!! So I lost my phone charger again, but this time i'm posting about it. I let the first one go because of the carelessness my own self isn't really proud of. Yesterday, i was in a hurry to go somewhere and it's not in my nature to easily or clumsily lose something especially an object so useful i feel naked without it lol. Perhaps my brain could only handle so much and i was pretty preoccupied. I needed to do this, that and blah. I wanted to get things done. So I went down from the the 3rd flr where my room is to the ground flr carrying my stuff with me (including the charger, my extra shirt and my bag) to grab late lunch. I strolled down and went to the car right away to put my stuff before starting with my meal. As i was having lunch with my sister, a sense of absent mindedness crawled all over me (i had that hunch that the charger was gone) i stopped eating, stood up and recalled where i put my charger. I didnt get to finish my food. It's not really about the charger now, it was about the "not again feeling" of the missing object phenomenon. Everyone in the house helped me search for it. I retraced my steps and i was anxious-sweating. The charger was gone. We literally looked everywhere. It happened again. It was so unfair. I'm really sure i brought it with me but i had a feeling something stole some of my seconds. "They" took advantage of my absent mindedness. Who are "they"? Can the mystery be solved? Why do things like this happen? What are the possibilities? Is it paranormal? Do other realms exist? How do "they" transport earthly objects to a diff place? The next morning, our household helpers finally spilled the beans, they've been hearing odd moans, footsteps, voices and a "person" crying from the third storey of our house.. As i am posting this, i am on the third floor. Mission impossible, it is unacceptable. I'll keep an eye about this phenomenon. This encounter serves as an instrument for my unprecedented purpose here on earth. True meaning com Leandro Belleza <leanbelle a yahoo com > Manila, Philippines - Sunday, October 13, 2013 at 01:19:12 (PDT) Last week was the funeral of one of my very closest friends. I was going to wear some very special jewelry I had that was sentimentally very important to me as well as quite expensive. Both the bracelet and the earrings I was going to wear were things left to me by an aunt and another very close friend who had also passed away. The bracelet had come with an appraisal of $4000. many years ago and the earrings were also worth quite a bit. I keep these items in the same place always and had seen them sometime over the last year but had not worn them as I only take them out at special times. When I went to get them they were both just gone. Now my sister who is a known thief had stayed with me for several months earlier in the year and I immediately thought she must have stolen them and was hurt and furious. Next thing you know, yesterday I am in the kitchen and I am cooking something that requires butter. My sons were present and I had picked up the butter dish and set it on the counter next to the sink. I turned to the stove to start the fire and when I turned again to get the butter it was gone. I asked my boys where it went and they both looked at me with confusion. I said I just put the butter here 10 seconds ago and now it's gone. They hadn't touched it. Also, I forgot to mention that last weekend I had some cannabis chocolate hidden in a drawer in my bedroom and had gotten it out to share with a friend, which I did. When I broke a couple pieces off I noticed I had quite a bit left and was happy about it. I had put it back in my drawer in it's little hiding place. A couple days later I went to have another tasty piece and voila! No chocolate! What the heck is going on?? I'm a Lightworker and I know that the veil is thinning and some very odd things are happening but butter? Cannabis chocolate? Now the jewelry may well have been stolen by my drug addled sister, which would not surprise me, but now with these things vanishing, I don't know what to think. Strange days indeed. Bev <Bevrojas a yahoo com > Ca USA - Wednesday, October 09, 2013 at 21:27:48 (PDT) This is not the first time this sort of "left and came back" activity has occurred for myself but I now have the video of the place that it reappeared, showing it wasn't there 20 minutes before. Within my collision facility a friend of mine had opened a plastic package and taken out the 3x3 inch sized switch and installed it on a car. I informed him that we had one in the storage area and that I intended to send that one back to the dealer. He went to put it back in the plastic, labelled bag and the bag was no where to be found. Since I have experienced this before, I grabbed my I phone and took a video of the whole working area suspecting it would be returned and that I would be able to prove it's return to us. Sure enough, in about 20-30 minutes he found the package and I made him show me the exact spot he picked it up and when I turned on the phone to watch the video, it was the very first frame that I shot that showed it was not there when filming. This happened October 7th 2013 around 11:30 am eastern standard time Tim USA - Tuesday, October 08, 2013 at 04:47:50 (PDT) About 3-4 years back, I started wearing my mothers wedding band. She had lost her original one, and picked this one out about 6 years ago. When she got it, it was slightly too small for her, so she never wore it. I loved it, so one day after wearing it for months, she gave it to me. Now, I am not the most organized person, but I never just leave things lying around. Especially expensive, meaningful pieces of jewelry. About 5 months ago, I was seeing someone, and I stayed at his house. I took the rng off, and put it in a pocket in my purse, so as not to lose it . Next day it was gone. I searched everywhere for it at his place to no avail. I was upset, but I eventually forgot about it. About 2 months ago I went on a trip to Ireland, and I needed a suitcase, so I borrowed my grandmothers. I packed/ unpacked several times on the trip. The second day I was home, I open my suitcase, to start unpacking, and what is on top in the center of my suitcase? My ring. Sitting there as if it was placed on top for me to find. It's been a few weeks since I found it and now it's missing again. Erin <Clementineerin a yahoo com > CA USA - Tuesday, October 01, 2013 at 15:17:41 (PDT) I was shopping today for work and I was going to buy the air freshener candles. The brand I wanted was nowhere to be found, I did though find the "other" brand and then decided to purchase a few of them. I put 6 of them in my cart and then as if coming from nowhere I then "saw" the entire row of candles of the brand I wanted...I looked at the shelves one by one for at least 4 minutes before resigning myself to the other brand. I asked the person I was with if they saw the candles and they did not as well. It was pretty intense because there were about 3.5 ft of space devoted to the different types of candles of the brand I was searching for. Heather USA - Thursday, September 26, 2013 at 01:21:33 (PDT) 4 days ago, my keys went missing. I searched all the usual spots, then all the unusual places, nothing. So I used the truck instead and decided I'd find my motorcycle and scooter keys later. When I got back I looked some more. Over the next few days I looked more. I checked the keys hook on the wall many times because a few things are hanging up there so I made sure the keys were not there at least 15 different times. Then, last resort, I was going to look through the laundry. I looked through all possible clothing and found that they were not there. So I decided to look around again in all the usual places... They were right there on the key hook on the wall. Then. The next day. I placed a cigarette in a specific place.. Even tobacco had fallen out and was left behind in the place I had set it.. Looked all over for it and just figured it was where ever those keys had been. The following day I walked my dog in the morning and when I walked past my scooter I looked at the foot rest and right there, outside on the foot rest of my scoot, after it had rained all night and everything was wet.. I found the lost cigarette. Sitting there. Still dry. Many other things have happened in the past, I'll write more stories about those things later. I'll keep this post limited to this weeks happenings. Layla USA - Wednesday, September 25, 2013 at 08:23:42 (PDT) After waking up this morning I found a ziplock bag containing sliced cheese (from the fridge)on the living room floor. It had a dollop of chocolate frosting inside - on the middle of the cheese. There wasn't any frosting on the outside of the bag - it was neatly placed in the middle. I didn't eat anything last night and was alone in a locked house. Britt Machado Rio Vista, CA USA - Monday, September 23, 2013 at 13:51:33 (PDT) Okay so this happened the last time at sat next to my find Erin and she asked me to borrow a pencil. Both of our erases went missing. Completely MISSING?! So then I gave her another and I got another and it happened again! Then I thought she was doing it I keep a close watch on mine and her pencil and toke a quick look away to the teacher and looked back, GONE. That happened last week. I sat with her again today and it happened once again. I gave her one more and it did not happen. At the end of class (my last class of the day) she gave me my pencil back (with an eraser) and I left school. I just got home to do my homework, I opened my pencil pouch with about twelve pencils in it and each pencil eraser was missing, even a spare one I keep in the front pocket of my book bag! This is hilariously creepy and I want answers! I want to keep my erases and know what is causing this! Lauren C - Monday, September 23, 2013 at 13:25:16 (PDT) I had an experience with this. I have this pandora bracelet and I remember wearing it the day I had to take my son to the doc. Well when we got home I know I took it off. I usually sit it two places on my night stand in the bedroom or on the table in the living room. A couple days later i went to go put it on and it wasn't there. I searched everywhere in the house even the basement. But i couldn'tfind it anywhere. Still can't until this day and im sad because it was an expensive bracelet. Another incident is one day I wad getting ready to go somewhere my boyfriend has an retainer that he has to wear. Well he sit it on hip of this container. I know I took the retainer of the container to use the contents inside. After i got done i closed it up and put the retainer back on top of it. That night when we came hone it wasn't there we searched the bedroom and the living room. He said he didn't touch it now its no where to be found either. This is very weird and i have no clue where it could be. lissa <melissamc2290 a gmail com > oh USA - Monday, September 02, 2013 at 13:59:17 (PDT) Stuff appearing from nowhere The last week or so things have happened that I have no explanation for. About 5 or 6 days ago I was about to put on my jacket and go outside when I noticed some odd object lodged inside the fabric on the bottom of the jacket. I checked everywhere around the jacket, but there was no hole anywhere for it to have been put in there at all. The piece of fabric it was stuck inside had been sewn onto the rest of the jacket, so I figured it either had been put there during the production of the jacket (or it had to appear in the fabric during the 4-5 years I've had it). I had no other way to find out what it was other than to grab a pair of scissors and cut a hole in the jacket to pull the object out. What I found was some kind of rock. It had a silver-ish shine to it when held under a light, but the stone itself was more or less black. To my surprise, the stone had 5 surfaces, and upon placing it on the table, I could roll the stone from one surface to another and each single one of the surfaces had perfect balance, so no matter which one of the surfaces that faced the table, the rock would lay perfectly without tipping toward any other side. It had the feel of being a dice, made out of stone, as I could flip it around on the table. The strange part is that there was something like an extra corner on the rock which seemed like it had been broken off, because each time I rolled the rock to a specific surface, the thing seemed to 'shoot off' a couple of centimeters away from my fingers, as if this corner 'repelled' the surface of the table. I went to search my jacket some more and found a tiny silver-looking piece of stone, and a couple of triangular shaped things (they almost felt like a mix between a nail and a piece of dried bread, but they would break very easily). So then I went ahead and held the dice-like stone a couple of millimeters over the tiny silver-looking stone piece, and to my surprise it was magnetically drawn to the larger rock, so that it stuck to the rock when I lifted my hand. After this I tried doing the same thing with the triangular shaped thing (whatever it is) and at some angle it actually stuck to the dice-like rock too. So what I held in my hands was some kind of magnetic rock which also somehow reacted in a magnetic fashion with a material that was not magnetic, which made the whole thing a little weird. I don't know how these things ended up inside my jacket, but I've been wearing this jacket almost every single day straight for 4 to 5 years, and I have never noticed this. So either someone put it in there during production - or it must somehow have magically appeared in the jacket recently. This thing seems like it is made by intelligent design, works like a dice and is magnetic. I don't see how someone would shove this stuff into the fabric of jacket strictly for fun, considering the properties of the rock. In any case it's a rare joke on my behalf. On a side note; Yesterday I found something closely resembling a piece of glass inside the pocket of a sweater I own. It is see-through and is not made of rubber or plastic. It seems like it's broken, but I don't think it's glass since it doesn't cut no matter how hard I squeeze it. I think it's some kind of crystal, but I have no clue.. The last time I was wearing the sweater, it was not there, but it somehow appeared in the pocket during a couple of hours, while only laying on the sofa. The day before yesterday I was moving stuff from one box to another in my room. I found a knife I had been given many years ago, and I put it on the floor while taking stuff from the first box to the second. The things I needed to use ended up on the floor in front of me, while everything else I didn't need from the first box ended up in the second box. One to my left, one to my right. When I had finished moving things from box to box, I looked down and found TWO knives. They were both identical. The first was the one I had been given many years ago, and the second looked brand new. I never owned two of this knife, but when I looked at their serial number, they were exactly the same. The serial number on the one I had been given was on a sticker, and the knife must be about 15-20 years old at least. The sticker with the serial number on the second knife was brand new, it seemed. I don't know how this thing happened either. Your guess is as good as mine! Thank you for reading :) Martin - Thursday, August 29, 2013 at 17:59:24 (PDT) My fiance proposed last week and got me a beautiful ring. Tonight, as I went to take it off to put lotion on, I noticed it was missing! It fits well and isn't loose, so I knew it couldn't have fallen off, and I also knew I hadn't taken it off (I'm very aware of it being off my finger!). My fiance was convinced it had slipped off, however, (even after I told him that there was no way it could have happened) and we started looking around the house. As we retraced all my steps from the evening, including letting the neighbor's dog out and putting out the trash, I was beside myself. I couldn't believe it was gone! However, just a couple minutes into the actual search, my fiance called for me from the bedroom. I went in and as I reached him, he lifted up my pillow. There, nestled underneath, lay my ring. I have NO idea how it got there. I have NO idea how it got off my FINGER, let alone under my pillow. The only time I had even been near the bed all evening was to just place a laptop on top of the bedspread. Needless to say, I'm a little freaked. I'm used to coincidental events and "messages" from the other side, but in much less personal ways! I can't get over the fact that my ring literally had to vanish off my finger for this one, and it's kind of creepy. Anyway, just wanted to share! Lindsey Jones <lmjones79 a gmail com > Blaine, WA USA - Wednesday, August 14, 2013 at 00:05:36 (PDT) I'm a very spiritual person; I consider myself pagan, I meditate, I feel energies, and very often 'know' things that I rightly shouldn't know. To say the least, my intuition is very strong. A good many months ago, while I was still living in upstate New York, I saw an egg about the size of my palm made of stone balanced in a key ring attached to an old key sitting on a little trunk of mine, in front of a window. I lived on the top floor of an old three-story house, the top two floors of which my friends and I were renting. The egg is nothing particularly special, pretty, earth-toned with creams and tans and browns and striated like a sedimentary rock. The key, unlike almost all the other keys I've collected, looks as though it serves some function opposed to being strictly decorative. (The bit of it has an indentation, as though it's purpose is to lift an actual latch.) It's a simple thing, and doesn't look terribly old. I assumed the two objects belonged to my best friend, who lived downstairs, as she was constantly forgetting things in my room; we both collect stones and keys, so it was really hardly worth noting. A few days passed, the egg balanced as it was with the key, and I didn't touch them. Finally, when my friend came upstairs, I asked them if she'd forgotten them in my room; she hadn't. This piqued my interest, and I asked everyone who'd been in the house - let alone my room - if they knew anything about them. To my dismay, none seemed to have any idea what they were, or where they came from. I still have them, despite my move to Georgia. I still don't know where they came from, or who could have left them for me. Kristen Nordstrom <krissness a gmailcom> Athens, GA USA - Sunday, July 28, 2013 at 17:30:45 (PDT) 1999 just moved into a house built in 1940s, I placed a E6B pilots watch on my night stand next to the bed, woke up in the morning it was gone, never reappeared in the six years living at the residence, or when moving to next house. Other odd things occurred when we first moved into house a plate of butter found in middle of kitchen floor neatly with silverware next mornings, there was a minor sense of presence in the house not over whelming. Doors would slam and no breeze was present. Where did the Ghost take my watch off to ? eisho <1#*%#Flynbuddha@aolcom**%$#@*(> Santa Barbara, Ca USA - Tuesday, July 16, 2013 at 08:06:23 (PDT) One day right b4 bed I was watching T.V. and like every other night when I go to bed I take the T.V. remote and I place it on the T.V. stand for my husband to find in the morning so he can watch the news. By the time I wake up he leaves for work and like myself when he turns off the T.V. he leaves the remote on the T.V. stand. So when I woke up I went to the living room to turn on the T.V. and I did not see the remote on the T.V. stand. I thought maybe he left it on the sofa, maybe on one of the end tables but nothing. I searched the bookcase, under the sofa's, in between the cushions and still nothing. I was frustrated because the remote was the only remote that worked that particular T.V. and without it I had to manually raise and lower the volume. So I began to search the entire apartment, the bathroom, the bedrooms, the kitchen, I searched high and low and still nothing. I searched practically all day and gave up with hopes that maybe my husband placed it somewhere else. So when he called later on in the day, I asked him what he did with the remote and he said that he couldn't find it in the morning and that he looked all over the living room and thought that maybe I left it in one of the other rooms. So I didn't know what to do, or what to think so I just figured that maybe upon cleaning the apt later on in the week I will find it. So the very next morning when I woke up I looked on the T.V. stand and there was the remote and I thought that my husband found it somewhere in the house. So when he called I asked him where did you find the remote? and he said he didn't find it, it was on the T.V. stand when he woke up and he thought I had placed it there because I had found it. It baffled me, because I don't know what was going on, but for now that was the only item that has disappeared and appeared mysteriously, Angel <blessedmomxoxo a aolcom> USA - Thursday, July 11, 2013 at 13:45:40 (PDT) Several years ago my parents and I moved into the house that we currently still reside. Ever since, my mother and I have been experiencing unexplainable events. One of the earliest things I can remember was my mom's purse going missing. My mother is extremely organized. Everything in the house has a proper place, and the house is always spotless. She was baffled because she always hung her purse on the closet door handle. After looking all over the house and interrogating my father and I, she assumed she left it somewhere. She had to cancel her cards as well as get a new driver's license. A few months later she was in the upstairs closet getting the winter blankets out of storage. She stores these in the vacuum sealed bags. The kind that sucks all the air out of the bcompressing the blankets to make more room for other things in the closet. She gets one of her favorites out, a quilt her brother had bought for her (a few months before he was fatally shot in a random drive by). She unsealed the bag and took out the folded quilt. She shook it out to drape it across the couch and out fell the purse. She stored that quilt away months before we even moved. Another event that happened was when my class ring went missing. By this time a few other oddities had happened but this one really made me wonder. My class ring was very expensive. Sterling silver, crimson red tear drop stone, two real diamonds, with the inscription "Never Forget" engraved on one side and "Class of 09" on the other. I wore it everyday, taking it off only to shower and sleep. I was always careful to put it on my porcelain ring holder whenever I wasn't wearing it. One day I woke up and it was missing. I tore my room apart looking for it. No way was I going to lose that ring. Eventually though, I had to give up. Two weeks later I woke up, made my bed, and went to use the bathroom. When I came back I was relieved, but shocked to see my ring sitting right on top of the pillow I had just fluffed moments ago. At first I thought my mom had found it and snuck it into my room while I was in the bathroom. I went to thank her only to find out that I was home alone, she and my dad were both at work. Now here's the one that made do a little online research, causing me to stumble across this site. My keys went missing a couple days ago which is normal for me. I knew they were probably in my room somewhere and after some searching I found them in an obvious place. Laughing at myself for being so blind I placed them on my dresser. I had to get up early the next day for work and I knew that I would probably be in a hurry. I didn't want to have to waste any time searching for my keys. So I made sure to make a mental note of their location. On the dresser right in front of my jewelry box. The next day I was rushing to get ready and as I got my things together I reached over to grab my keys only to find that they were gone. I looked everywhere for them flipping over pillows, shaking out my bedspread, checking under and around furniture. Short on time, I hunted down my spare key and left for work. When I got home I mentioned my keys to my mom, asking her if she'd taken them or if she'd seem them. She hadn't. I then spent the next few hours relaxing in my room. After a while I heard one of my cats crying in the hallway. Fearing that he'd wake everyone up (it was after midnight by this time) I left my room to go get him so he could hang out with me. When I came back to my room I stopped dead in my tracks. There were my keys sitting right on top of my body pillow on my bed. I know for a fact they weren't there before I left to get the cat because I had to find my remote to pause my movie. The remote was sitting right where my keys had just appeared. Spooky... (O.o) Jess USA - Thursday, July 11, 2013 at 00:19:50 (PDT) I was standing in my closet needing 4 hangers for 3 pairs of blue jeans and 1 pair of sweat pants. I could only find 3, so I took the 3 and walked to the bed a few steps away where the pants were laying. I threw the hangers on the bed and I am drawing a blank on what happened next. I can't remember if I looked away or if I just picked up a pair of blue jeans and placed then on the hanger, but I do remember putting the first pair of blue jeans on the hanger then laying then down on the right side of the bed. then reaching for another hanger and noticing the was still 3 empty hangers laying on the bed, so I looked at the jeans I just put on the hanger and they are on a hanger just where I had placed them, so I look back and sure enough there are 3 empty hangers and the 1 hanger with jeans on them. I know for a fact there was 2 peach colored hangers and 1 black hanger that I took from the closet, but some how I now have 2 black and 2 peach colored hangers. I have been having feeling of similar things such as this happing but this is the first time I have seen it with my own eyes knowing that there was only 3 hangers to start with. I'm starting to think my mind may be slipping? Adam lexington, KY USA - Sunday, July 07, 2013 at 18:34:34 (PDT) Generally, in our house, random, but usually any desired or very "attached-to" items have simply been disappearing over the last year or two. I know no one has had access, and it was no one that visited my home. Even my boyfriend is now freaked out by it as well. we've had 4 herbal sacks disappear,(yay CO) as well as (somehow)an entire can of brand new Parm Cheese that seemed to empty as it sat on the coffee table overnight. It didn't fall, there was none on the floor, no one ate it, it was just empty the next day. Things disappear and then seem like they are right infront of you, this happens to both of us. I will mention the entire place has been turned upside down to look for the following items, several times and in the process cleaned well as we looked for these puzzling missing items. These were are really only things that have sentimental value to me, they are not necessarily worth anything monetarily. No one would know these are things I care about desperately. Because I have lost so many people in my family, the beautiful gifts and treasures I have from my family are very rare and extremely precious. The missing things started out less precious and became more and more so as more things disappeared/time went on. A beautiful scarf my sister in law gave me, a matching scarf and hat my Sister bought me for Christmas, I remember tossing them ALL in the bedroom closet and being pleased and noting it as I'd found each one. Even though there was a little mess of clothes in there I was sure they'd be there later, because I am certain beyond any doubt I never wore them. ALL, all gone, every shirt and sock organized. A very nice little Remmington blade I kept vigilantly clipped to my bra and checked subconsciously constantly was my favorite gift from my love. It also disappeared. My deceased grandmother's class ring, as gift from my Mom at Christmas that I obsessively checked to make sure it was always on my finger, simply disappeared sometime during the evening one night as I stayed in. My Deceased Father's Army Knife, of which few even knew I had it and no one knew where it was, is gone without a trace. What The Hell. Anyone? Can I even... is there ANY way I can get these things back? I am starting to wonder if we're going crazy because so many things simply disappear. Thanks for listening to the rant everyone, open for suggestions :) Jennifer <**dp_tissuemassage a gmailcom**> CO USA - Wednesday, June 26, 2013 at 14:05:39 (PDT) i use an inhaler before i go to bed and when i wake up in the morning. one night i used it and put it back on the nightstand, where it stays. I went to sleep and when i woke up to use it it was gone. I really needed it that morning to, well im not one to just think something crazy is going on so i searched and never found it. 3 days later i got another one and guess what? yep, it happened again the next night. i looked everywhere for them and nothing. it happened again today and again with this item i am perfectly aware of where i set it. i live alone so i know. tim <timware28 a yahoocom> USA - Thursday, June 20, 2013 at 19:20:38 (PDT) I have a small hand carved statue from the Cook Islands in the South Pacific. I bought it there about 17 years ago on holiday. It is called "Tongaroa" which is one of the gods of the islands. He icommon site on the islands and he is a fertility god and a god of good fortune. I have been back to the islands 2 years ago. I kept him on a windowsill in the bathroom with my other totem from Vanuatu which is made of volcanic rock. After some time I noticed the Tongaroa had appeared on top of my tv in the bedroom and I couldnt remember placing him there. I have moved him back in the bathroom and he appeared suddenly in my husbands room, he has sleep apnea. I didnt move him then. Strangely enough I had lost my reading glasses today and when I went into this bedroom there the glasses were with Tangaroa. Fiona Australia - Wednesday, June 12, 2013 at 22:03:59 (PDT) I woke up about 10 min ago, and i was hungry so i fixed something to eat. After i had finished eating i wanted to smoke so i went and got my bong, and filled it up. I was about to smoke but then i had to pee so i ran to the bathroom. I was in the bathroom for about 30 sec at the most, and when i came back my bong was gone. At first i thought i was tripping or something so i just sat back down and started to look around. After about 2 minutes i stood up and said hold on i know i put my bong right here on the table so where is it. I flipped over the couches, looked outside for some strange reason, and even strip searched every room in my house. Still no sign of my bong so i started to freak out and wonder what is going on here. I live alone and have no pets so what happened to my bong. After about 30 min of searching the house over and over i sat back down, and said forget it because this is to crazy for me. I actually started to get really mad because i know for a fact exactly where i put my bong, and bong's just don't get up and run away. Even though this isn't the first time something like this has happened but after this i said enough is enough. JackTheRipper <000theendisnear000 a gmailcom> 77373, Texas USA - Thursday, June 06, 2013 at 21:02:33 (PDT) Usually my possessions change places and this happens quite a lot and just now there was a phenomena where in this situation of me masturbating i found that a toe nail come out my mouth i remember its strange because this toe nail was from the past and i am sure of it it is the toe nail that was in the orange juice that my mom gave me when i was a child i'm sure of it how could it possibly come out intact out of my mouth 20 years later, anyhow i put it in the empty coca cola bottle and threw it away and made my self some fresh orange juice which i drank; why the coca cola bottle because it had actually happened once that i drank a toe nail in my drink of coca cola not so far back i cant beleive i had to pay for it too Javier Perez Pignatelli <javipigna a hotmailcom> Brussels, Belgium - Friday, May 24, 2013 at 17:24:22 (PDT) I was in my garden on the trampoline and i had taken my allstars off and left them neatly next to each other on the grass. Whilst i was on there i needed the toilet but because i couldnt be bothered to put my shoes on i went to the house in my socks. After going to the toilet i decided not to go on the trampoline anymore so i went outside to get my shoes but to my amazement they weren't there so i went back inside just to check i hadn't brought them inside and i hadn't. So i went back outside to check again and there they were sat back were i had left them where had they gone. I was on my own nobody else there and this is the 5th thing that has vanished and then reappeared in my garden. Alexia Williams Bath, England - Tuesday, May 14, 2013 at 08:09:33 (PDT) Ok, so I've had a lot of weird happen to me ! To start off with ,the first time something went missing unexplained was when I was younger , and I had a teddy and I was obsessed with it.One weekend I was staying with my granny and when I went to bed it fell on the ground.Instead of my mum Picking it up she turned the light out and said I could get it tomorrow because it went under the bed. The next morning .. the teddy was never found or seen again since .That was over 10 years ago and still to this day that is a UNUSUAL PHENOMENA that happened to me !! Freaky and also all my socks go missing , I put a pair of socks in the wash and only comes out ! I want answers !! jessie smith <jessiexscott a hotmailcom> USA - Wednesday, May 01, 2013 at 14:38:24 (PDT) I just had the most bizzare experience! I plopped on the couch and went to grab the TV remote which is always either on the coffee table or sometimes on the arm of the couch. It wasn't there! I looked everywhere; between the cushions, behind the couch, on the floor. I moved the coffee table and the couch to look underneath. I looked by the TV and in the kitchen. I was getting so frustrated because I had just watched some tv earlier in the day and there is no place else I would put the remote. I also live alone, so no one could have moved it. Exasperated, I said a little prayer, "God, please, where is that remote?" And then I looked and it was on the coffee table! There is no possible way I could have missed it! Just too weird!! Paula Hartman Ca USA - Tuesday, April 30, 2013 at 00:08:35 (PDT) When I take my dog out to potty, I bring her in and make her sit by the door while I go get her food and water. Well, I made her sit and stay while I got a magazine and a couple other thin booklets from my purse. I took a few steps away and she made to follow me (which is obviously not "stay"ing), so I made this big overhand gesture with my right arm at her, like an exaggerated baseball throw, and the magazine hand nearly hit the floor. At the bottom of the arc, I felt the 'zine fly out of my hand to somewhere behind me and I heard the flutter of the pages, but not it hitting the ground, so I figured that it had hit the ground at a slide. When I turned around, there was no magazine. Now, my house isn't always clean, so I thought that it had maybe slid under a piece of furniture. So, I checked. Nothing. I looked around a bit. Still nothing. I gave up for a few hours then decided to straighten up the room to look. No dice. I even checked in places that were nowhere near where it would've flown. I couldn't find it anywhere. The only thing that could be considered "mystical" that I've been doing lately is keeping track of my dreams when I can, so I don't know if I've activated something that I may have or what, but I really wanted to read that magazine. aoakes92 USA - Thursday, April 25, 2013 at 19:14:37 (PDT) So I wake up to find that the loaf of bread is missing. Thought the roommate grabbed it for lunch. Nope. So now I have been on a hunt for it. I am then informed that we have several items MIA in this house. A bobble head Brewer missing from the room downstairs, in the basement. The filter housing to my Dyson disappeared after I took it apart to clean it and let it dry overnight. And now a loaf of bread vanishes off the kitchen counter. All within the past month and a half or so. We lock our door every night. This morning the door was OPEN when we woke up. We either have a sleepwalker with a strange hoarding habit or a ghost! Shannon Trapman <hhrlover06 a gmailcom> WI USA - Wednesday, April 24, 2013 at 05:51:23 (PDT) Lost a house key. I have turned to house over several times, I have been on my hands and knees trying to find it on floor or under fridge/cooker etc. I had three bin bags out the wheelie bin in the kitchen. I couldn't find the key. I vacuumed the kitchen floor and then mopped it. WHen dry, I opened a cupboard and sat on the floor to pull out the contents. I decided I knew it wasn;t in there and so started to put the stuff back. I shut the door turned round putting my hand on the floor to stand up, the key was right behind me on the floor. Four days it's been missing, I cannot think how it got there, although it's not the first time things have gone missing and tured up in odd places. Pete <petegater a gmailcom> Uk - Thursday, April 18, 2013 at 13:13:42 (PDT) I have quite a few phenomena's in which I have no explanation for. Firstly, I must say that I started reading this thread today, and after getting my phone from downstairs from overnight (it charges separately) I proceeded to go on it. After a while my siscomes in and asks me to straighten her hair. I said yes, and placed my phone on my MADE BED *note that the phone couldn't hide anywhere underneath covers as I'm very particular about tucking in* and I could definitely see it. After straigtening I went to get my phone, and it wasn't there...seeing as straightening only takes 10 minutes maximum, and nobody had come on, I was so confused. My sister and my mum searched EVERYWHERE for it but it could not be found. Then, seeing as it is the holidays and that day I could not see anyone, I had no way of contacting anyone. (all contacts, numbers, emails etc. are kept on my phone) Finally, I got through to my friend who kept pinging me (BBM) and I found it in the right side of my (very messy) wardrobe, underneath some trousers which I most definitely had NOT moved today. Creepy, huh? Secondly, my mum, as a child, had a tiny music box that would play music when it was wound up, about the size of a typical ice-cube. One day, she was out and was playing behind a bush, when it just disappeared. It being precious, family combed every area within about 20 sq. feet of the area, to no avail. A few years later, the music box turned up behind a different bush, muddy and rusty, and my mum only found it not because she was looking, but because the music was playing. Thirdly, this is not a missing object, but a paranormal happening. My parents went out for dinner one day, and being paranoid about everything they would double and triple check lights, ovens, radios etc. I mean, really paranoid though, even if we are going to miss a flight, if my dad believes the oven was left on, we would drive back 3 hours to quadruple check. Yes. Anyway, when they went out the house completely dark, nothing on and everything locked. However, when they came back, everything possible was opposite to how it was, with every single light, radio, TV, door, window, open or on. No explanation, and no signs of a break in. Nothing was stolen, but everything was changed...and the creepy thing is, that I am sitting in this very house now. It gives me goosebumps. Lexi <alepko5 a gmaildot com> London, UK - Monday, April 15, 2013 at 15:08:20 (PDT) Once in awhile, I'll put something in a pocket in my clothing, or into a space in a backpack, and when I go back after it, it isn't in the place where I put it. It's nowhere, it's gone. I'll pull everything out of my pockets, turn my pockets out, check for holes, check linings of clothing, pull everything out of my packs, open the packs up to the air, air them out, clean them out, check everything, put everything back in the pack or back in the clothes, and chalk up the loss of whatever it was. Then, a few days of weeks later, in one case three months later, I'll put my hand into my pocket or my bag, and I'll feel the object, pull it out, and be amazed. Because it wasn't there the whole time. It was seriously gone. Where does it go? How does it not be there and then be there later on? Gabriel Arthur Petrie <gabrielapetrie a hotmailcom> USA - Thursday, April 11, 2013 at 07:30:01 (PDT) Several years ago, when we first moved into our current house, we were having lots of work done on our property which seemed to trigger some unusual phenomena including some vanishing items. I was ironing in my kitchen and piling up completed ironing on my kitchen work top. When it was done, I picked up the pile of ironing to take upstairs and as I did so I knocked the quartz gas lighter onto the floor from the work top where it always was. I heard it crash and thought, "I bet that's broken the plastic case, I'll pick it up later - I'm not putting this washing down." I went upstairs to put the ironing into the airing cupboard and then came back down into the kitchen. The gas lighter was not on the floor, I was in the house on my own and the doors were locked. I got down on my hands and knees searching every bit of the floor but it couldn't have gone unde ranything as all the kitchen floor cupboards have plinths. We never found it - in fact when we had the old kitchen ripped out we asked the guys to look for it - but they didn't come across it. Shortly after that, my husband couldn't find his credit/bank cards. He had been into town a couple of days previously so assumed he had lost them whilst out and cancelled them with companies. A couple of months later we were packing to go on holiday and my husband whilst rooting through his wardrobe discovered a pair of jeans that he had never worn (they still had the cardboard branding attached to the waist band). He had bought them a couple of years previously, in fact, we commented that the shop he'd bought them from had been closed a while. He took them off the hanger and discovered his lost credit cards in the back pocket! Any explanations gratefully received! C Holloway <mrscarol.holloway a gmailcom> Southport, UK - Wednesday, April 10, 2013 at 10:20:05 (PDT) For the past 15 years we find strange (not our) clothing items in our home. Shirts and shorts - men's and women's clothing. We do not uscommunal laundry service or laundromat and we do not have people coming in and out of our home. The sizes vary from large to larger. There is no explanation and it has happened in both homes that we have lived it. weird!!!!! Michelle <michelle a gmailcom> TX USA - Wednesday, March 27, 2013 at 14:51:30 (PDT) Last night I prepared a bank deposit. It was paper clipped with the deposit slip and four checks. I was upstairs in my house when I did it. I laid it on the floor of the hall leading to the stairs in order to bring it down in the morning. I have three very loud and vicious to strangers watch dogs so it could not have been an outsider - besides all windows and doors were locked. This morning it was gone. Although I know where it was left I did the usual search of drawers and every other place that I was. FYI our upstairs is a single bedroom , bath and closet - not too hard to search. Concerned I looked in places where it could not be - the garbage downstairs, counters, drawers, in the refrigerator, etc. It was and is no where to be found. Roger <hikes75150 a mypacksnet> USA - Saturday, March 16, 2013 at 13:24:28 (PDT) You know when people say "I lost my phone"? Well not only have my friend and I lost our phones, we lost them in the bin about 5 times. This doesn't seem quite normal but...yeah..5 TIMES FOR GOD'S SAKE!!! Suddenly my ipod disappears from its case but I'm pretty sure it will happen again. If anyone has had this happen to them before please, please let us know so we feel that this is not just us experiencing this. Jayne <rosejane0512 a gmailcom> UK - Saturday, March 16, 2013 at 07:30:46 (PDT) We have a water cooler in my house that you invert a 5 gallon bottle of water onto the top of the cooler. I had bought a new unopended bottle at the grocery. My girl friend cannot safely lift and invert the bottle so I have to do this small chore. The room we keep the cooler in is a sunroom that is fully tiled and has brick walls and two windows and a locked exterior door. I pealed the plastic lid off of the jug and swifly and safely inverted the bottle on the cooler. The next day we went to the room to fill some drinking bottles with fresh cool water. The bottle was shockingly empty, no water even in the holding reserve where the water is chilled. There was no water in the floor At ALL. The empty I replaced was in the floor that I had swapped the full bottle with. To this day, I cannot account for 40 lbs. Of water! No way for evaporation, No spill, no leaks. Tim <tlsmith1959 a gmailcom> Wilmington, NC USA - Tuesday, March 12, 2013 at 06:52:52 (PDT) So first pieces of information that are important. I have a tub on the bottom shelf of my coffee table where I keep random stuff I use all the time, and second I am constantly wrapping my Doberman's leg cause she licks the same spot constantly and has caused herself a lick granuloma. So my friend and I were sitting on my couch. I grabbed my dogs leg to rewrap it with some bandage. I had three rolls of it in my bucket, two teal and one red. I grabbed one of the teal rolls and my sizers, noticing that there wasn't enough left on the red roll (that was in the tub) to get the job done. I wrapped her leg and put the roll back in the tub....right in front of my friend. We sat on the couch with the dog for a minute, never got up and then decided that we should put the wrap up higher on her leg so we pulled the tub back out from the table. The rolls were gone. Both the red and the teal that I had just opened. The two of us ripped my house apart looking for it and we couldn't find it anywhere. Finally we started looking in places we just knew it couldn't be. We found the two rolls in my buffet drawer. You know the dresser type thing where you store dishes. Absolutely blows my mind. We didn't get up, we didn't move the rolls. That drawer definitely did not get opened. I would just think that I am crazy but there was another person here who was with me the whole time, didn't get up either and confirmed that those rolls were put back in that tub. Amanda <amanda.ansley a gmialcom> Twentynine Palms, CA USA - Thursday, March 07, 2013 at 18:50:01 (PST) One lazy Sunday afternoon in our town, sometime on the year 1957, I strolled along my mother's convenient store since there's no one there to talk to. It was a little dark inside because the store is closed during Sundays. Then I came across to my mother's old cash register. It's a post-war model but still works perfectly for cash money safe keeping. And just outside in front of the cash register, I saw a fifty cent coin. I always keep in mind things I was taught to, that taking money that is not yours is bad. So for safe keeping, I inserted the coin inside the small slit of the cash register's cash drawer and dropped it inside. I turned around for a second to check for other misplaced coins. I didn't find one so I turn back to the cash register. To my amazement, the coin that I just inserted into the cash drawer just seconds ago was now lying flat outside the cash register! But I swear I was alone during that time. I took the coin and inserted it again into the slit of the cash drawer one more time. I stared at it for several seconds but nothing unusual happened. But when I turned my eyes away from it for a second and take a look back, the coin is now once again seen outside the cash register! I became intrigued and did it for the 3rd time when it finally stayed put inside the cash drawer. I was searching for an answer or at least an explanation to that incident. Now,I have known in my research using the internet that other people around the globe have experienced it one way or the other. And what's important to me now is the mere fact that I am not alone.... Oscar <oscargener a hotmailcom> Gingoog City, Philippines - Wednesday, March 06, 2013 at 02:30:49 (PST) I'm from Australia. Throughout my life I have had things break around me. My family was once downloading through a 3G network at 1mb/ps. When I walked into the room the Internet speed dropped to 100kb/ps and when I walked out it went back up. I did this a few times and it kept on happening. Similar things like this have been happening throughout my life and noone has any explanation for it. Matt <Matt.salvation a gmailcom> Australia - Saturday, March 02, 2013 at 17:40:35 (PST) Well mine is all about the disappearance of money in my mummys treasury,am very sob and sad i dont even know how to explain have been accussed of so many times been responsible for it but i know am very innocent.Is there any ghost in my home? Joseph <Josephbai a yahoocom> Nigeria - Friday, March 01, 2013 at 13:59:03 (PST) I would usually keep my glasses in my bedside table before I go to bed. When I wake up, it's the first thing I grab and in one particular instance, it wasn't there! We searched the sides of my bed twice and it wasn't there. On the third try, it mysteriously slides out. And my bed does not have an empty space below. Just plain solid wood. Maria <morning_view a hotmailcom> USA - Saturday, February 23, 2013 at 21:21:34 (PST) For me it was a charm bracelet, My cousin and I had hopped over a fence, and I felt it fall off, We looked everywhere for it for almost an hour but it was poof! Gone! Then almost exactly a year later, I was walking down the trail but on the other side if he same fence, (This trail has a TON of traffic, like an entire high school daily and everyone going to and from the mall), I pointed to my friend that that was the fence way over there that I lost my bracelet. I looked down, and the bracelet was on top of my shoe! We were both kind of stunned and just didn't talk about it ever again. It was sure weird. Glad to know I am not alone. hidingnow <mellisamouse a yahooca > canada - Saturday, February 09, 2013 at 15:42:26 (PST) I was about to go running, and didn't want to leave my wallet in the car, so I carefully (.ca aarefully) zipped it into my coat's inner pocket. As we, (me and my docompanions) set off on the trail, I looked down and realized that the wallet was JUTTING out, making me look like I had a box for a boob. I poked at it, realizing it was in vain, because that wallet was just going to make that boob look like a straight up square, and I didn't care, but I know it was there. So we are running and leaping, breathing deeply and vigorously flailing limbs in a controlled fashion until we stopped because I needed a tissue. I pat the box boob wallet to make sure it was still there, and alas it was not. That's right. Gone. So I whipped down my zipper and shoved my hand into the pocket, which was utterly empty. So I checked the lining of the coat in case there was a hole in the pocket, but there was no hole. That pocket was safe as houses. And that wallet was just...gone. POOF! So I bad-swooned and took off, screeching curses not unheard of in the deepest blood red pits of Hades, tracing my steps, head whipping back and forth and eyes scanning the ground like a cyborg bloodhound. I came across people, a hippie couple, squawked a ragged "HI!!!!!", in between my pantings and deluge of dismay. I got back to the car (maybe I dropped it!) tore all things asunder, finding nothing. An illogical little voice had me check the pocket of my bag, where the wallet normally lives but CLEARLY could not be, since I had patted my pizza box boob while walking AWAY from the car, not 20 minutes hence. But there it was. In my bag. The bag I had specifically removed it from because there was 400 dollars in it All true. And I don't know what to do...Is one supposed to just MOVE ON and forget about that shit? Save this description, I don't have any other choice but to do so. Dolores Buffalo, NY USA - Monday, January 28, 2013 at 02:02:37 (PST) This morning while making breakfast I turned on the kitchen tv and set the remote on the kitchen table by my breakfast plate ,I got up ,I finished making the breakfast and turned around to place it on the plate,the remote was gone ,no one else was home at the time, it freaked me out I looked every where, I sat down to eat ,glanced at the tv , for a few minutes , then turned my gaze back to where I laid the remote and there it was , right were i originally placed it . Larry Gibble <Largib1066 a comcastnet> Elizabethtown, Pa USA - Wednesday, January 23, 2013 at 08:37:23 (PST) I am a 75 year old man who has never believed in ghosts or the paranormal. Until now. Here's the story: I have a nice yellow plastic wristwatch, a Swatch watch. Every night I take it off my wrist and put it on my nightstand, along with my glasses. Well, about three weeks ago, when I got out of bed in the morning, I reached for my glasses and watch. No watch. I immediately looked on the carpet where it could have fallen. I then looked behind the nightstand by the wall. Not there either. I then looked in front of the nightstand. It might have fallen among some vitamin bottles on the carpet, or even in a wastebasket close by. Nope. I then got a flashlight and looked under the bed, where it might have bounced to. Not there either. So that was it. I just gave up trying to make sense of its strange disappearance. Then, a couple of days ago when I got out of bed I glanced down at the spot on the carpet where the watch could have fallen. Whoa! There was the watch! Its band was nicely straightened out, laying there on the carpet just as pretty as you please! I live in my house alone, so no one else could have done it. And one more thing: Recently while in the kitchen a blue plastic strainer I had just used---wasn't there when I turned to get it. I still haven't found it. So...maybe the ghost will read this---and return my strainer! I will close on a happy note: since I now know that ghosts exist, it makes sense to me that an afterlife might as well exist too! Great! Larry Forbes <xLarryforbes10 a Gmailcomx> CA USA - Sunday, January 20, 2013 at 18:32:06 (PST) Every few years, I experience an unusual occurrence. Yesterday, it happened once again. I was at computer at the back of the house, and the mail carrier came to the front with a package. There are two routes to the door, so instead of going through the hall on one side, I went through the dining room. I located the key in the foyer, unlocked the door, retrieved the package, and went back to computer. Then I realized that I didn't have my glasses. I knew that I had them before the knock at the door, so I retraced my steps. My house is well kept, so I should have been able to spot them. I went in a circle through the dining room into the hall. I even checked the kitchen counters. I did this several times during the afternoon at later that night. The next morning I went through the steps again. No glasses. I then checked other places, where I clearly had not been. Thinking that I may have dropped them, I started checking the floors. I went back toward the dining room from the kitchen. In the dining room, I have one of the dining chairs placed along the wall that faces the entryway that I had been using. There were my brown glasses resting on the large cream-colored cushion of the seat. I had looked in that location MANY times, and the placement of the chair makes it impossible not to see it or anything on it when walking into the room. Now I'm wondering if the experience was "unusual" or if my eyes and my mind have something to do with the "disappearing" objects. A rational explanation would indicate that I had overlooked the glasses. However, this is definitely not the case. Nan USA - Sunday, January 13, 2013 at 05:43:31 (PST) OK, I needed a roll of toilet paper, so I took an unopened 4-pack from the top shelf of my hall closet. It was one of those packages that are stacked two-high, two rolls on the bottom and two on the top. The pack was full. All four rolls were in it, and it was tightly sealed. I used my thumb to poke a hole in the cellophane between the two top rolls, then started trying to tear the wrapper so I could get a roll out. I was holding the pack in my left hand and trying to remove the roll on the top closest to my right hand. I looked away for a second, and when I looked back, that roll had vanished. I was left with three rolls instead of four, and I still had to fight to make the hole big enough to remove one of the three remaining rolls. I have never come across the missing roll. While this was happening, I never moved from the spot in which I had been standing when I first poked the hole in the package. It's kind of hard to misplace a roll of toilet paper, but to this day, that missing roll has never turned up. It's not the first thing that's gone missing from my house for no apparent reason, but it's the first time something ever vanished from my hands while I was holding it. QP Pat Long Island, NY USA - Sunday, April 29, 2012 at 15:31:45 (PDT) Last evening I was out with my family for Fathers Day. We took him to Chevys (at his request) and had dinner. I do not have a very loving relationship. I am not a teenager but not a college graduate either as of yet. So we ordered: 3 plates of the combo enchilada dishes and a veggie burrito wrapped in a flour "taco" for me. Most of us were not able to finish our food so we asked for takeout. We walked out in a line. My dad in front with my sister following him. Me and my mom a couple of steps back. I was holding my takeout with two hands because I have had experiences where sometimes the food would slip if it was not level. I needed to use the bathroom which was right by the front door and there was a long bench in the hallway leading to the exit/ front door. When you walked in the bathroom was immediately to your left and the counter that you ask for your reservations is 3 steps in front of you in other words not too much room to wander. So again when you walk in:bathroom to your right, hallway in front (with the reception desk blocking half of it so you have to walk around it;) and a bar to the right which I never have or went into in all the times that we have gone there. So when I walk into the hallway (preparing to leave) I see my dad and sister across from each other. My dad is sitting on the bench (no one else is on it) and my sister is milling around near him. I recall saying that I would use the bathroom. When I finish, I leave thinking that I had given (or left) my takeout container to or nearby my dad and then as I am walking to our car alone, I slowly realized that I dont recall the last few seconds before I went into the bathroom before the takeout vanished. No surprise when I asked my sister (who was carrying the rest of the takeouts stacked she did not have it so I went back in and checked the bench and went into the bathroom (it was not a large one either). I dont believe that I would even consider bringing it into the bathroom and yet when I checked the bathroom I did not see anything like my food. All this happened within a range of 5-10 feel with very limited hiding spots. I was laughing but I just realized now that I didn't check the bathroom hard enough which is probably where it was, but its the oddest thing. Im glancing around and yet nothing. I am a healthy 21 year old child. Im theorizing that it has something to do with emotions, because although I dont generally allow my frustration with my family to show, but I was frustrated with the way that they were treating me. I'm thinking that somehow this energy is venting in... "other routes." I wouldnt be surprised, I've been meditating quite alot as much as I can with before a feeling tells me that its enough for that day. Considering that on that day, I had had a dream where I was flying in this closed environment with these being and I saw this surreal scene where these pair of pigs were flying (no wings but they werw squealing with delight I remember) and somehow had apparently left in such a fashion that they had a rectangular piece of fence or wooden structure around their heads like it was the from end of a barn pen or something that they could peek over and eat from a bin on the other side of it. I recall that I was also waching but it felt alike I was directing them as they were banking towards me like a plane. In these dreams I dont question whats in front of me, I just (and I am beginning to understand and feel this:) go with the flow. :) Thanks for reading this, people>! Sean Lowery <sml200411 a hotmail com> CA USA - Monday, June 18, 2012 at 21:34:30 (PDT) so it was a normal friday night cooking tea as the last bit of cooking needed doing i lay the table getting all the condiments out the cupboard salt pepper e.t.c after dinner i put them all back in as normal clearing away ritual. the next evening i did the same thing to find the salt not in the cupboard anymore mmmm strange i thought so i looked everywhere ( in the presence of my husband and my 4 children) and it was nowhere to be seen. the next day i sent my daughter up to the shop to buy some more to cook the sunday dinner as i still hadnt found it. and as the kitchen was starting to heat up i partially opened the top window . when wed finnished eating my husband took the kids for a bath and then bed and i started cleaning through downstairs ready for the new week ahead when id finnished i went upstairs for a bath and then came down and went straight into the kitchen to make a drink as i was in there my husband asked if i could shut the back door as it was getting a bit cold and i told him it wasnt open then automatically looked up at the window i stopped dead in my tracks there was the missing salt directly above the new one id bought on the window sill, placed on the opening of the window and the frame???? i automatically blamed my husband for trying to freak me out but when i called him to show him and after 10 years together can tell when hes lieing i have no other explanation for it i stood in front of that window the best part of 4 hours off and on and even opened it earlier i just have no clue as to how it got there dana <dizzydanacox27 a yahoo co.uk> england, USA - Monday, June 18, 2012 at 10:45:15 (PDT)

On my way to work, I vaguely remember putting my reading glasses in my purse. When I got to work I looked in my purse and my glasses were not there. I was not surprised that my glasses were not in my purse because I was in a hurry when I left out to go to work. I thought "maybe I left them on the table at my home." I need my glasses to read so I decided to search my purse again just in case I overlooked my glasses. This time I did a thorough search. I took everything that was inside of my purse out and I also looked inside of all of the pockets that are attached. I am telling you the truth,my glasses were not in my purse. I even have a co-worker who can bear witnessed that I emptied my pocketbook and my glasses were not inside. Again, I figured that I just left the glasses home and I said to myself, when I get home the first thing that I am going to do is look for my glasses. When I opened my door to enter my home, I went inside of my purse to put my keys inside and the first thing that i touched was my eye glasses. Where did my glasses come from..... Tonie <tonietate1 at aoldot com> USA - Tuesday, May 11, 2010 at 21:39:39 (PDT) I'm a first year student at The University of Portsmouth in the UK. I share a house with 4 other people. We each have a day in which we wash and dry up all the dishes. It was late one monday night and all my house mates had eaten dinner and gone out. I was left with all the washing up as it was my turn to wash the dishes. I was half way through when i really needed to use the toilet so i washed up one last tray, dried my hands and left the kitchen to use the toilet. When i returned the tray i had just finished washing up was gone. I noticed it had gone straight away because it was kind of a big tray and i put it on the side next too the kettle. i searched all over the kitchen and it was no where to be found. I continued to to wash up the remaining plates and then dried everything and put them away. The next day i asked my house mates if any of them came back without me noticing and possibly moved it but none of them did. I checked if it was possible to fall behind something or some where unvisible but it was not possible. The scary thing is myself or my other house mates have not seen the tray since. We could not confuse it with another as we only had one and it was really distinct. I haven't ruled out any normal explinations like my mind playing tricks on me but it's strange how 5 peoples mind plays the same trick. Disapearing Object Phenomenom seems the best explination. Emma Relf <emmarelf at livedot com> Portsmouth, United Kingdom - Friday, April 16, 2010 at 06:35:13 (PDT) So, this is a disappearing object type thing. One night, my boyfriend and I were planning to go see a movie. He was running a little late, so when he got to my house to pick me up, I already had my jacket on, and met him at the door. Since I hate being late, I didn't even stop to give him a kiss, just went straight to his car. On the way to the movie, he went to get his cellphone out of his pocket to show me something a friend had texted him, and realized it wasn't there. We both just assumed he had left it at home, and went back to what we had been talking about. We went and saw the movie, had a great time. On the way back, I reached into my back pocket to get my cell phone (all I had brought with me), and instead found his. We hadnt even touched before the phone went missing, and neither of us could figure out how it had gotten there. I never felt anyone or anything touch me, and it's not like I left something somewhere and forgot it. The phone somehow ended up in my pocket without me having ever touched it, and without anyone else touching me. Charlene <could_we_have_known at yahoodot com> USA - Thursday, March 18, 2010 at 18:50:27 (PDT) HERE IS THE STORY OF ALL STORIES: I am ex military of 9 years ( Navy )I have been married for 11 years and been with my wife for 16 years. I have read stories of strange events, but those events don't come close to the events my wife, children, and I have had. They have become so intense, that they are now a normal part of our existence. This is one story you may find difficult to believe. But this story, ( event ) DID happen...one out of 12 events in 16 years. We were living in Las Vegas in 2009 just off of Las Vegas Blvd and Lamb road. My children were attending a local school not far from our home we were renting at the time. My son was sick and we needed to go to his school to get his homework so he would not fall behind in his classes. I opted to stay in the truck while my wife and my son went inside the school to retrieve his homework. The time was around 9:15 A.M. and this event would only take place in the matter of minutes, To retrieve his homework that is. Everything was quiet and it was warm outside. My window was rolled down as I listened to some country music and had a cigerette. I was watching very carefully for my wife and son to come out the school door and head to the truck. After about 20 minutes, I saw them exit the school office and cross the street ahead of me about 50 yards. I lost sight of them as they passed in front of a vehicle that was parked about 6 cars in front of my truck. I waited for about 3 minutes when I noticed I didn't see them on the sidewalk or anywhere. They knew where I was parked and saw the truck parked there, because they waved to me as they exited the school three minutes before. after about 5 minutes I began to worry, so I decided to pull out of the parking space I was in and drive forward to see if I could find them. Suddenly there they were standing on the sidewalk. I assumed they were waiting for me, and it was my fault they did not head for the truck, I felt pretty bad. They opened the doors to the truck and got in. I pulled away talking to my wife Kay as my son zack sat in the back seat quiet. NOW..what I about to explain next is almost unbelievable to those who have not gone through what i am to tell you. I asked my wife what had took her so long to walk to the truck, which she never did, but SHE DID. let me explain this. She explained to me that she walked to where the truck was parked and Zack and her saw me driving down a side street and had left them behind. I came back with " Wait a minute, I didn't go anywhere! I saw you cross the street with Zack and then nothing...you didn't show up. so, I decided to drive forward to see if I could find you and there you were." She came back with this statement and so did my son. check this out. " Uh, ...honey!..you were NOT there, Zack even stood in the parking space and waved his arms around making sure you were gone. we both saw you drive off down the road." To this day I have researched this phenomina, I think I spelled that wrong..sorry. Anyway, we were so used to having STRANGE events happen to us that It was and is a part of my life to find out what the HELL is going on. This is only 1 event. we have had missing time, we have seen thing you wouldn't believe, and we have had extra dimensional crap happen to us. NOW, we don't drink, we don't do drugs, BUT, we are very aware of what is around us all the time, we pay close attention to details and events and conversations. The only thing I can come up with is this: Somehow, someway, my wife and son SHIFTED to an alternate reality and stayed there long enough to see another me drive off. then, they walked back up the road and re entered our reality Now, If anyone has had anything like this happen to them or close to it, PLEASE e mail me so I know I not alone in this. Do yourself a favor, pay close attention to everything around you. watch the time, events, conversations and other things as well. You may find out that this world that we believe is stable, is not so stable and explainable. John Holmgren <johnsholmgren at hotmaildot com> Fallon, NV USA - Tuesday, January 12, 2010 at 23:47:32 (PST) It just happened to me and Im seriously confused. i was walking back home from having lunch with a friend. on my way back I was texting with another friend of mine. I placed my phone in my pocket waiting for his reply and 10 meters later wanted to retreat my phone and make a call. the phone was gone. i began checking in every pocket and in my bag but there was no nowhere in sight. i asked for a borrowed phone and dialed mine. it ran several times and then someone answered. i could hear the road both through the phone and because i was there. i hurried to a friend's house and went back to the place to look for my phone w her. we tried calling several times and the only thing we could hear was a tv and people talking. i lost my phone but its not the first time things just disappear from me. it also happened w my wallet. i could've swear it was in my purse but when i doubled checked it was gone. w no sings that it could've been stollen Marce Romero USA - Friday, December 18, 2009 at 14:31:17 (PST) the other day i was searching for my lighter to ignite my cigarette but it wasnt anywhere i looked i took my bedding off my bed and shook it out i even took my pillowcase off and tossed it and my pillow onto the adjacent couch nothing i just couldnt find it it was on my bed it wasnt in the bedding just nowhere so then took all my bedding shook it out again (still nothing) and tossed it on my bed for reapplying to the bed i then went to the kitchen to find matches (i found some) but when i returned the lighter was on my bed. today i was looking for my camera but it just didnt show up so i pulled my xboxs box (witch fit very snugly underneath) out from under the couch nothing i left and came back and it was sitting on the box there was no way it could have gotten there im i going nuts or are the borrowers real or is this multiverse messing with my plain of reality all i know is its happened alot to me not just these instances i just cant remember all the details of the other experiences rodney </\/\/\-hackfu420 at yaho123odot com/\/\/> USA - Monday, November 30, 2009 at 23:06:11 (PST) 09/04/09 The wedding ring: Today I had a strange thing happen where my wedding band disappeared and reappeared on my hand. I dumbfounded me and my reasoning fails to explain this phenomena. I had my wedding ring on this morning when I woke; I never take it off unless I wash my hand or shower. After my morning shower I did put it back on. At 11:45am this morning I had a chiropractic appointment, when I was there I used a hand sanitizer that was on the receptionist's desk, I took the ring off setting it on the counter and rubbed the sanitizer in hands. I then put the ring back on. After the chiropractor, my wife had a 1pm salon appointment to get her hair done. Setting in the salon waiting until she was done i read a magazine, as I was reading the magazine I glanced at my hand as I turned the pages and not only noticed the ring was gone, I could now feel the absence of the ring from my finger. After her hear appointment we then went shopping at the mall, I did not have the ring on the entire time, and kept wondering what had happened to it. it wears snug and won't just slip off. After the mall and all that running about getting food and rental DVD's we returned home. Here's the crazing and comical part, I was in the rest room setting on the toilet and just as mysteriously as the ring had vanished it reappeared. I felt the presents of the ring on my finger and looked at my hand and there it was as if it was there all along. I cannot explain it was there then it wasn't. Then it returned like magic. Cecil Anthony Ince <cecil at cecilincedot com> Irving, TX USA - Saturday, September 05, 2009 at 22:17:29 (PDT) Theorys of others about dimensions and things disappearing makes me wonder if maybe there may be something to it. I'm 55 and all my life i heard stories of all kinds of strange things that occur but never experienced anything impossible. I was open minded to these stories though. In 2008 my wife and me went to Walmart in Miami Ok. It was 12:30 am. We like them hours to avoid the crowd. My wife shopped for shampoo etc. while I shopped for food. Tooked a cart and picked up around 200 dollars worth of hamburger, milk,orange juice etc. Being 12:30 am there was hardly nobody in the store. Walking east at the southend of the bread isle I stopped and let go of my cart and walked away from my cart no more then 4 ft. and grabbed two loaves of bread and turned toward my cart and there was No Cart. From the time I turned away from the cart and turned back,no more than 4 seconds occured. With a smile on my face I knew my wife or somebody was playing a trick on me. At a fast pace I ran immediatly toward the next three isles then back north at the other three isles. Nobody was around. I continued walking with my two loaves of bread thinking I will find the joker soon. I walked and walked and walked, finally found myself walking the entire store looking for my cart and my wife. I walked the entire store 3 or 4 times. While I was walking I looked at the workers that were there at their expressions to see if anybody knew what was going on. But no one looked at me funny. While I was walking fear was setting in. theorys were on my mind, trying to find a logical explanation etc. I was thinking, Is this what death is,I died of a heart attack and went to another realm. I can't find my wife, If I go out where my car is will my wife and car be gone? Crazy things pop into your head when something unexplained occures. I went to my car and I never thought I would be so glad to see my wife like I did that night. My wife said "what took you so long?" I sat in the car telling her my experience. She wanted me to go see the manager but I felt a fear in going back in there. So she went in and walked around and asked questions etc. I watched from the front door. At the first checker I could see that they may have called the manager so I came in told and showed the location of the ordeal to the manager.also the items in cart. He said he would look around for me after I gave him my phone number. Wouldn't it be something that a year later the manager gives me a call saying "I found your cart but the reason I'm calling you is the dates of the milk and orange juice is over a year old" When I meet my maker the first thing I will ask is WHERE IS MY GROCERY CART? mark doser <chubbyfeller53 at yahoodot com> seneca, mo USA - Monday, August 17, 2009 at 02:15:17 (PDT) I have problems with missing, reappearing and changing items all of the time. You would think that I would get used to it but I don't. I have always kept close track of my possessions, so when I lose something, I don't deal with it well. Sometimes I think I'm losing my mind unless I have a witness. My family refers to it as having a hole in the house. There are many times that an object will disappear and never return and other times that they reappear exactly where I lost them. Once I dropped a hair brush on the floor and it vanished before it ever hit the floor, right before my eyes. Everyone in my family witnessed the disappearance. We searched everywhere to no avail. A week later it was back in the same spot. Recently, though, an event took place that is much larger than most of my experiences. A few years ago my eldest son bought a home. Upon our first visit, we commented that it was interesting that he had a mantle in his living room but no fireplace, just a blank space marked with tile. The house had a place for a chimney but didn't have one. This past winter when I went to visit my son, I was shocked to see that he had a regular fireplace with evidence that he had been burning wood. I went around to the side of the house outside and saw where the chimney was. I commented to my family a question, "I thought he didn't have a fireplace." The answer I got was, "He has always had a fireplace." I called up my other son whom has shared many of these experiences with me and asked him, "Does your brother have a fireplace?" He answered "No., remember? we laughed at how he had a mantle but no fireplace?" I told him that he does now and has always had one. To put it mildly, we are both stunned by the thought. What really concerns me is that the frequency of these events is escalating and I somehow feel that I'm responsible. I'm teetering on the edge of sanity because of this. Things change so frequently these days that I don't give it much thought unless it is expensive to replace, then I hate it. One other post about Trees and doors suddenly appearing...that happens to me all the time now...even buildings with appear and disappear or events and memories. I'll remember clearly having never done something and people will comment on the contrary... So...is there an explanation for this that makes sense? Are we mearly slipping between alternate dimensions? Is there a way to control it? Kevin Henson <$ at %$%$kevinhenson at austin.rrdot com> Austin, Tx USA - Monday, June 01, 2009 at 09:19:13 (PDT) no submission to report, I'm just wondering if there are any theories on why no one seems to find any reappearing objects that aren't theirs? I have dropped small items, searched thoroughly, and had them turn up months later exactly where they should have been, eluding vacuum cleaners, bare feet, and cats. it seems like if there were some (bizarre) reason for this, that we'd also find things we DIDN'T drop. the neighbor's lost earring, for example. I was wondering if anyone has posed any theories on why we only find our own things? BTW, I love your captcha! so much easier to read than the usual. Diana <miz sydney junk nospam a yahoo> CA USA - Saturday, May 30, 2009 at 22:13:49 (PDT) When I was a young child about 5 or 6 I was downstairs in my basement alone playing with my change. At one point I was holding a penny in my hand and trying to be cool I said some crazy words to make it disappear. To my surprise I opened up my hand and it was gone. I searched everywhere in my basement for that penny and could not find anything. There was no way I could have dropped it I remember clenching my hand. I even tried making it reappear saying stupid words again. No one believed me when I told them, and to this day I am still baffled. Paul Mendes <Pauldmendes at yahoodot com> Me USA - Wednesday, May 20, 2009 at 11:55:42 (PDT) In the late 70s I lived in a very small house. I was alone in the house soaking my aching back in a hot tub of water. I had been there about 30 minutes when i heard a noise of something that had hit the floor and was rolling down the hallway toward the bathroom.. Its just a short distance from the bedroom to the bath down this hallway.. but i had time to sit up and lean on the left side of the bathtub curiously wondering what this noise was.. I saw a coin come rolling from the hallway and make the turn into the bathroom and up near the bathtub. I reached out and picked up this coin and it was a silver 1940 mercury head dime. I thought well i left my pants draped over the bed and the coin fell out of my pants.. When i got up to look matters over i had put my pants flatly on the bed and i had no coins ( especially no silver coins ) in the house at all. Some people said that a passing truck vibrated it off of my dresser or something similar but this was a country house away from traffic and no such thing had served to disturb a coin off of a table. I still get goose bumps when i think about it! Bob Hammer <mojaveratt at aoldot com > grand jct, co USA - Saturday, May 02, 2009 at 19:24:34 (PDT) When I was a small boy of somewhere from four to six years of age I was in the habit of taking toys to bed with me. At some point in time they started to disappear one by one, night after night. After a few weeks I became concerned. I could not find any of the toys no matter how much I searched. Finally, I awoke one night and saw a pure black hand emanating from my mattress grabbing one of the few toys left -- my favorite toy -- a green plastic toy gun. I quickly grabbed the other side of the toy gun with one of my hands and a tug of war ensued. The black hand was stronger and my toy was going towards the bed. I put my other hand on the toy gun and finally mustered greater strength than the black hand. At this point I was sitting up and had been trying to scream to get my parents to come help, but my voice was frozen. Finally after starting to win the 'tug of war' my voice unfroze and I released a scream. At this, the black hand quickly let go and disappeared into the bed. Justman <coven at numandot comfy> USA - Tuesday, January 27, 2009 at 18:21:30 (PST) i was at my computer a few days ago and i need reading glasses to read the screen. as i was reading, a neighbor knocked on my front door. i got up and answered after taking my glasses off and setting them down. the distance from the computer to the door-maybe 15 feet. when i went to put my glasses back on they had disappeared! i searched for several hrs. my girlfriend also searched. guess what? glasses were never found and i had to buy a new pair! a few days later i had a paycheck in my wallet and went to cash it. gone also!!! searched my entire house,my car,girlfriends car. no check, i have to ask for a replacement check! i havent been a believer in the supernatural. now i am. theres no explanation for these items to literally vanish and never be found!!! michael <michaelweaston at yahoodot com> lakeland, fl. USA - Wednesday, December 10, 2008 at 18:22:36 (PST) Ok so I'm the type of person that loves watching ghost hunters, reading about paranormal things and such...however I rarely believe in it myself.. I just always try to find logical explanations for EVERYHING lol I came across this site by accident but found it quite interesting However, I've encountered my share of quite UNEXPLAINABLE things. 1)not too long ago, id say a month or so ago i was wearing a clear hair clip in my hair.i have sensitive scalp so i would remove it from time to time and would either pocket it [in my hoodie]or leave it in my room or on the dining room table. I was sitting in my living room watching tv sitting on the couch with my whole body on a cushion and a half [hope that makes sense] anyway i got tired of the way my hair was on the back of my neck so i decided to clip my hair up again..i searched for it in my pocket because i was playing with it in my hands throughout the time i watched tv BUT it wasnt there i looked around ont he couch thinking i probably set it down or dropped it on the floor or crushed in inbetween the cushions but nothing. I didn't think much of it then, so i got up and looked for it in my room. again NOTHING i stated to get annoyed after looking in the dining room and even the bathrooom sheles because sometimes i tend to misplace things even when i think im not distracted. I finally gave up and decided to get a hair tie. When I went back to the couch and continue my tv show the clip was RIGHT THERE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CUSHION I WAS PREVIOUSLY SITTING ON. Ok i know ppl are gonna be like "well you did say it was a clear clip, maybe you just didnt see it" which i totally understand i thought about that too only that i flippedover all the chushions and felt around the couch several times! And I couldn't have sat on it cause I surely would've FELT it or simply crushed it. Its plastic and those things snap esily.IDK wat that was...btw i was the only one awake at the time it was close to midnight maybe 2)Just yesterday i was in my room getting a mirror for my mom...now I have a n entertainment center type shelf thing that i use for books and shoes lol i also keep a valentines day bear on a separate shelf that I got from my boyfriend last Valentines'. I took it off my bed or anywhere the kids can grab it for the sake of keeping it clean and so they wont press the hand [where it says"press"] to keep the song from going off cause i can't lie its annoying! lol but watever...So i go and grab this mirrorfrom a lower shelf and as im turning to leave my room the bear goes of...the song comes on clear as day i ran out and asked my mom if she heard it too...she was like "yeah, what about it" and i told her I didn't touch the thing! She was like wtf? lets see it. I went near it with my mom and tapped it with an empty curling iron box and nothing...i did it again and it went off. So i assumed that it had some bad wiring or something, but tht still doesnt explain why it went off the 1st time. But heres the even weirder part. I grab the bear and start hugging it, squeezing it, and even tossing it around to see it it would do it again due to the bad wiring,but NOTHING! no matter how hard i tried I HAD to press the hand for it to happen.[we were the only ones in the house btw] 3) i have a really weird one that involves a different mirror but its quite difficult to explain, however it also occured in my room [can you say hot spot? a lot of weird stuff goes on in there i cant explan it] the point is a mirror was "pushed" and knocked off a bunch of stuff i had sitting on top of my tv [its quite big so i keep hairspray bottles body mist, and just random hair products and make up]Its quite neat actually despite the way it sounds...there is no way it could've happened withought an actual push cause i was sitting on my bed. My mom was the only other person in the house at the time and she was in the kitchen...nothing else on the tv moved so no sudden movents on the floor caused this. 4) This happened during the time i was reading the many stories on this site. No nothing disappeared as i ate it lol but I did start to hear a tapping sound that sounded quite unfamiliar....i know "wohoa big deal" no but seriously..it was shortly after reading the story about someone tapping on a girls window as she slept...creepy. So the thing was I just blew it off at first thinking OMG im DELUSIONAL. But it got louder and more consistant i got scared so i said out loud "please stop.." and it did. I continues reading and a few min later it happened again as if testing me, not as loud this time but consistent...i asked it to stop againa nd it did but now its f&^k!ng with my cell phone and im scared as S#!%...Someone help lol im serious im freaked out. EMAIL ME!! PLZ SOMEONE Eve <eve_torrano at sbcglobaldot net2323> East Chicago , IN USA - Monday, November 24, 2008 at 01:01:25 (PST) One night, I went out to a restaurant to eat with a friend and so we drove over there in my car. However, after we had finished dining, we went out to the car only to discover it was gone. Naturally, we thought it simply got stolen. There were lots of people around, but no one noticed anything. So I said good night to my friend and went home after reporting my car stolen. The next morning, when I went to my garage to drive my SUV to work, the missing car was in it's place - NO SUV! This was very odd, I was so confused I forgot to report this to police. Then, when I drove past the place where the car was supposed to be parked the night before, the missing SUV was parked there instead! Weird... Stan Jones Hollywood, CA USA - Sunday, November 16, 2008 at 21:17:03 (PST) My wife borrowed my keys because she couldn't find them for just under two weeks, while she had searched her purse looking for them several times they suddenly appeared laying outside of and on top of her purse just under two weeks of being missing. That wasn't so weird I am sure it happens to people all the time. What is weird was we normally sleep with two head pillows and a leg pillow each for a total of 6 pillows. When we removed the pillow cases and sheets and washed them and dried them and went back to make the bed there were two pillow cases left over because there were only four pillows. We asked the spirits to bring the other two pillows back but are still waiting. Also have had things fall of of shelves that we couldn't account for and door knobs rattle in this house. also a pearing knife vanished and have searched high and low. I have heard of socks go missing but pillows and two of them !!! There isn't a place for them to hide! Michael burk <michaelburk54321 at yahoodot com> Arab, Al USA - Thursday, October 30, 2008 at 07:03:48 (PDT) Ive lived in my house for a little over a year now and there have been strange sounds that i have heard but didnt think much of it. My roommate has experienced objects move, but she is the only one. Lately there have been strange things that come up missing. We bought four pack of stick butter that came up missing after a couple of days, and today we had two cat litter scoopers disappear. we've looked everywhere and cant find them nor do i know why someone would want to take them. amanda bohnke fort wayne, in USA - Monday, October 13, 2008 at 17:21:03 (PDT) I just bought a lottery ticket at a gas station in Holland, Michigan and I put the ticket in my shirt pocket. I then decided to put it in the glove compartment of my car, a Ford Taurus. About a minute later, or less, I checked on it to be sure of where it was and to lay it flat in the compartment and it was not there. Two days later I checked the winning numbers and recognized that a couple matched. I then checked the lottery website. I was glad that no one matched all six because I did not want to lose six million dollars from this. But there is no explanation for where the ticket went. Darrell Laning <macisl at yahoodot com> Grand Haven, MI USA - Tuesday, September 30, 2008 at 07:09:56 (PDT) First one of the 3 diamonds in my ring was missing. Then about a month later the whole ring went missing from my ensuite. I searched the room & the adjoining bedroom, without finding it. I hoped, when I moved house, I would find it, but I didn't. 10 months later at my new address, it was late morning when I walked into the kitchen and there it was, in the middle of my kitchen floor, and with all its 3 diamonds as well! Over the years I've had several personal objects disappear and later reappear, but the ring episode is the most amasing. It only happns to me, not my partner. I'd googled the subject before I lost my ring and tried the advice to ask for things out loud to be returned. It doesn't work for me. I read one person's story which said it took 10 years for a watch to reappear on their bedside table. I'm in my 50ies and this only started about 8 years ago. During this time I've had my computer turn on while I was dusting it, the doorbell rang playing the tune it wasn't set at and no-one was there. It rang at 3a.m. once, no- one there. My 2 fridges have been turned up flat out, partially freezing the food, a loud bang in the kitchen heard from the bedroom. The weirdest thing was an unearthly noise from under our bed one night, when we were standing in the bedroom. It sounded like a sick wailing cat. The noise moved into the wall behind the bed, then the wall under the window. Heather Murrin Australia - Sunday, July 06, 2008 at 07:19:53 (PDT) Back in 1998 my 92 year old father died, he had a chest of drawers that had had the pull handle missing on the top right hand drawer, (all my life that I remember, (some 50 years)). I looked through the contents of the drawer to see if the parts were there as my daughter wanted to take possion of it ,to remember her grandfather. While cleaning the contents of the drawers I found two of the parts (post that were held by screws), but didn't find the pull handle itself. When my daughter came to pick it up the handle was on and secure, neither of my sisters claimed to have put it on and we were all baffled. After bringing it home and putting it in my daughters room the handle rattled by itself in the middle of the night for one week and has been quiet for the past 10 years. I would like to think that he wanted to let us know he is OK, dead but OK. Dave David Spiller <ae4j at yahoodot com> Ft. Lauderdale, Fl USA - Sunday, July 06, 2008 at 07:11:57 (PDT) This happened back in the 70's when I was attending college in Allentown PA. One evening I went over to the dorm that had a soda machine (it was a small college and only one of the men's dorms had a machine)to get a drink. As I enterd the room that the machine was in I reached in my pocket to get the change I needed and found that I was short a quarter. I was disapointed that I didn't have enough change and said to myself "man and I really wanted a soda too" I did not say this out loud. As I was standing there I caught some movement from the corner of my eye and I looked up in time to see something falling straight down to the floor. I looked up quickly enough to see that it had fallen straight down without any apparent trajectory and that when I first looked up it was fairly near the ceiling. It was at least even with my head when I first focused on it and I am six feet tall. The room had an eight foot ceiling. I walked over and picked it up and it was a quarter! I looked down the hall that branched from the room and there was nobody there and all the doors were closed. I had heard no sounds other than the coin hitting the floor and there were no holes in the ceiling either. I used the quarter to get a soda but I never could figure out where it came from unless it was a gift from heaven or someone upstairs had dropped it and it went right down through the floor to my level or something. Anybody else ever have something like this happen?

They are always objects that I have not taken outside of my home (wherever I happen to live at the time) and they are frequently objects I saw/had/used only minutes or hours before their dissapearance. They cannot be attributed to another person being or living with me at the time. The earliest I remember is a light blue Champion sweatshirt given to me as a gift. I set it at the foot of the bed still in the box it was given to me in, while getting ready for work. I returned from work that day and the box remained, but the sweatshirt was gone. I looked for DAYS for this sweatshirt, and often wondered if the landlord had taken it because I could find no other explanation - despite the fact that we (my husband and myself) had recently changed the locks and had yet to give him the key. My husband and I worked together, over an hour away from home, and we drove to and from work together and I knew he hadn't done anything with it. It was never found. A year or so later, a different home, and I set a gold celtic cross necklace my husband given me on the ledge in the kitchen to color & rinse my hair in the sink. I distinctly remember putting it there. No one else was home that day. After finishing my hair, I went back for it, it was gone. I looked on both sides of the ledge, I looked everywhere for weeks, never found again. I was given by my father a pearl ring that had belonged to my mother before she passed when I was a child. I always cherished this ring and kept it in my jewelry box. One day when going to get it, it was gone. Ok, so someone (maybe a new landlord at this place) stole it, just didn't steal anything else I had with it or more valuable. Never recovered. I had a silver watch I had bought and adored, black face, roman numerals - not particularly expensive but I was picky about the watches I bought and hadn't found another like it before or since. I placed it on my end table when getting ready for work, making a mental note to grab it on my way out the door as I was running late. No one was home with me on this day. Five minutes later, I went back for the watch on my way out - it wasn't there. Thinking maybe it feel underneath or beside the table, I moved furniture and searched as much as I could then and when I got home. Never found the watch, never recovered. I had a black crochet tank top and jacket I bought and kept in the closet (different home) and was waiting for the opportunity to wear them. I passed it by every day when looking through my clothes and getting ready for work. It was there one morning, the next, not there. The jacket was, not the tank top. I don't think it was my boyfriend at the time. I never found it again. These are just a *few* examples I can recall off the top of my head. I made a list one day, of all the objects I still miss but never found - none very valuable, but all small personal objects of mostly clothing or jewelry. These are small and seemingly meaningless incidents to most I am sure, but this pattern repeats so many more times and they are too numerous to count. Like most, I don't have a perfect memory, no, but these are occasions when I specifically remember placing something somewhere only to have whatever it is disappear and not temporarily - but permanently. And not while out with it, but always within my home, always an object which never left the house. Strangely enough, they are almost always objects I treasure, for either sentimental or other reasons, regardless of any lack of monetary value. It happens more often now, and I guess I would be able to chalk it up to being absent-minded if the objects reappeared, but they *never* do.. I am amazed to find this exists for others and to find this board - very strange. I really wish I knew the answer.. I have theories, yes, but for fear of embarrassing myself I don't share them. And there is only one or two people I have ever shared this with personally in my lifetime. Out of Answers <no> SC USA - Saturday, March 08, 2008 at 11:21:20 (PST) This is kinda a missing object thing, in a sense they were teleported... a couple of weeks ago, when i was working the cash at where i work, a customer came in and asked for some chapstick. i asked her what kind, original or cherry. she asked for cherry. when i went to get it, ALL the cherry ones were hanging BEHIND the original ones on the hook... so i took the lazy way out and broke the punched hole that it uses to hang on the hook (instead of taking off the originals and getting a cherry then putting back on the originals). so i sold it to her, she left and then when i went back to rent a customer a movie, 3 of the cherry ones were put on the hook IN FRONT of the originals. i never moved the originals off the hook, nor did i move any of the cherries in front of them. neither did anyone else because there's not enough room behind the counter for someone to go unnoticed and because the other person i was working with was out pumping gas. Brian M Ottawa, Ontario Canada - Monday, January 07, 2008 at 17:30:33 (PST) Disappear.....waiting for it to appear My boyfriend and I moved into a new apartment about 4 months ago. Last week, I was getting ready to do laundry. I gathered up my clothes, grabbed my detergent, and started a load. When it was time to put the clothes in the dryer, I went upstairs to grab my fabric softener. I had just bought a brand new box of arm & hammer lavender softener. I distinctly remember laying it on the counter, still in it's plastic grocery bag. I was not there. I tore the place apart searching for it. It's nowhere. My boyfriend came home and grabs his jacket. He looks in the pocket for a bottle of pills that he had and it also was not there. He said he remembers zipping it up in the pocket. Nothing. We got to talking about the fabric softener and starting coming up with a list of other things. Come to think of it, SEVERAL things have been missing since we moved in. As of now, nothing has reappeared. Does anyone have any tips on how to get it back? Jess <JessDanger at aol.999com> Raleigh, NC USA - Monday, December 17, 2007 at 06:28:59 (PST) When I was about 15 year old (25 years ago), I had these same things happen on several occasions. They always happened in my bedroom. At times, I actually knew when it was going to happen. Examples: 1--Sitting on the edge of the bed. I dropped a pen on the floor. Rather than bending to pick up the pen, I finished up what I was doing. When I bent to pick up the pen, it wasn't there. It was on the top shelf of the table beside my bed (not really a table. the thing was on four wheels. it had a metal shelf at about 3" from the ground, another at 2' and another at 4'. it was handy for a teenager with lots of junk so I kept it beside my bed.) 2--I had a bed with a post at each corner; two on either side of the headboard, and two at the foot of the bed. the ones at the foot of the bed stuck up about 4", and were square 2"x2". I kept my wristwatch on one of these posts at the foot. One night, I was making my bed. I held onto two corners of the blanket, and flipped the blanket up to straighten it out. The blanket covered up the posts at the foot of the bed. The blanket wasn't lying exactly right, so I pulled it back for another try. When I did, I saw the empty post. The watch wasn't there anymore. I had seen it just seconds before. It was on the table thing beside my bed. The funny thing is, I was going to move the watch as soon as I was done. Just like with the pen, I was going to get to it...but it got there by itself without me. wierd. 3--Another time, same room, I dropped some change (a quarter?) beside the bed. Again, I did something else first planning to pick it up in just a second. Too late, it was up on the middle shelf of my 'table' thing. Lots of wierd things like that. I was always alone, so no witnesses. But these things happened 25 years ago, and I can remember them like yesterday. This is the first site that I have seen (by accident nonetheless) dealing with these things. thanks, chris Chris Deni <srilankachris at yahoodot com> OH USA - Tuesday, October 16, 2007 at 13:41:02 (PDT) When our son was very young (3-7) we experienced something similar to the dissapearing/reapearing object phenomonem. I was employed by a defense contractor at the time, and so was very aware of everything going on around me. We would buy our son some new small toy, with which he would play with. Later (hours or days), we would notice him playing with a toy we had never seen. The toy would be similar to something you would expect a child his age to have, but upon close examination would sometimes have writing (like the factory code numbers) in a script/language I have yet to ever see elsewhere, and the toy we had purchased was no where to be found. Please note that we lived in the country and our son had no contact with other children while unsupervised. When pressed as to where the toy had come from, and where his toy was, he would simply state that he had traded with his 'freind' who he could not see or touch, etc. Since I worked in an extremely sensitive environment, with very nervous people, we never mentioned this to anyone until now. However, after a few days, the mystery toy would always dissapear, and his toy would reappear, sometimes to his great dismay-he seemed to like the toys from wherever better then the ones we purchased, on several occaisions. As he approached his early teen years, the phenomona stopped. Or at least we believe it's stopped....very weird stuff, but not unexpected in a chaotic multiverse. I think we need to see more with our perceptions, not with our three dimensional minds. By the way, our son is a very healthy, normal and intelligent young man-no side effects noted from his encounters with the toy-trader from wherever. Mike <mctuck_99atyahoodot com> USA - Wednesday, August 29, 2007 at 23:10:57 (PDT) it was just a normal day, but i was bored, so i decided to go and watch a DVD in my bedroom. i went into the downstairs computer room to get the DVD, so i picked up 'The Fast And The Fourious' and read the case too see who was in it, so i took the DVD up to my room went to open the case and it wasn't The Fast And The Fourious case it was a AC/DC-Back In Black case I still don't know how this happened becaus the DVD's are stored on the othe side of the room, on a different cabinet. Andrew Berry united kingdon - Friday, August 24, 2007 at 07:32:34 (PDT) A vanishing object... with conventional explanation. As a warning! I was carrying three small parts to another room, and in an agitated emotional state. I put them down on a table, and when I went to retrieve them... only two were there. Impossible! I had three! I looked all over the room and under stuff, but one was definitely gone. I retraced steps in case I had dropped one unknowingly (but I knew I didn't drop it. And I didn't find it.) It was definitely gone. I had to make another part. Some time later I sat down at my desk, and suddenly had a strange memory. I remember picking up the three objects, and DROPPING ONE which hit my shoe and rolled under the desk as I watched. I reached for it, and there the memory ends. WHAT? What happened?!! Ah, now I remember. A guy from upstairs walked in just at that moment, and asked about the parts. I looked up and started talking to him. And then I left the room, taking what I thought was three parts along in my fist. And yes, sitting right under the desk was the third small part. So yes, much of the time there really is a conventional explanation for these things. To be certain that something weird is going on, we have to "plug all the holes" of various everyday possibilities. Maybe your keys really are on the table, and anyone else could see them, but you cannot. Maybe your pen rolled off the table and fell silently to the linoleum floor, even though it should have made a loud noise. It's only the *totally* inexplicable events which we should take seriously. Situations when huge objects fall off the table and then utterly vanish. Or times when objects wink out of existence as you're staring right at them. Bill Beaty USA - Friday, August 17, 2007 at 17:35:20 (PDT) It was 1976. Saipan island: isolated, white sand beach; mid-day; blue sky; myself, two lawyers, two Irish setters - all alone; one lawyer swan nearby; the other lawyer and I stood on the beach and threw a found stick (perhaps 2 feet long), dark color, for the dogs to fetch. We threw it many times to a distance of, perhaps, 50 or 60 feet. The dogs would fetch it back, wait and, thrown, race after it again. When arriving at the stick, they pounced with front feet - sending it spinning or tumbling in the air. Then, this one time, when they simultaneously ponced on the stick, it spun, as often before, into the air - one spin, two spins, three spins and, then, simply, vanished. I witnessed the entire sequence and have visualized it, without alteration, to this day. The dogs spun, turned, searched and then came back toward us. The lawyer (his dogs) yelled to them, "Get the stick! Fetch! (or similar words)." They did not turn. I said, "They can't. The stick disappeared in thin air." The lawyer, confounded, continued to tell the dogs to get the stick. Why I caught the event was my good fortune, but he did not see what I saw. The dogs attention shifted to other matters of dog interest. White sand beach. Full sun. We walked to the site and made a diligent search. Nothing. The other attorney, noting the ruckus, came from the ocean and, told of the events, also made a search - no stick. The dogs' lawyer (stick thrower), understandably, could not reconcile the events - cognitive dissoance - and opted, understandably, to purge himself. The other lawyer, baffled by events, uderstandably, took the matter under advisement. From this experience, I have formulated a standard that must be met (by me) to accept such things as having happened outside of my mind (I am my own most severe critic). In this ideal circumstance, there were two attorneys (only the facts) and two dogs (only the facts). A laboratory beyond doubt. Of course, many trips to Saipan after the fact, I would go to this beach and, feeling foolish, try to replicate the disappeance of the stick by myself, alone. Nothing, of course. I have read (researched) the many submissions. Though I do not doubt the sincerity/belief, unfortunately most have "holes" in them - to the extent that one wishes to have a 2nd party accept them as "true". I am the first to state that there is no reason a sane/objective person shouls accept my story with les than a fist of salt. Hereine lies my dilemna. I am interested in pursuing "unusual phenomena" (inexplicable) but there is no purchase in reality from where to start...or so it seems. If there are those out there with an insight, I wish to hear from them.

I've been browsing through your web page, reading a few people's accounts of missing/reappearing objects, and darned if it didn't happen to me, right here at the office. A co-worker is off for a week, and yesterday afternoon we discussed two files of pending work that I will need to handle in his absence next week. Just now, a gentleman showed up in the office, asking to review one of the files as it relates to a real estate transaction he's involved in. No problem with that, except I couldn't locate the file. I looked high and low, looked in every drawer in my co-worker's office, turned my office upside down, looked in everybody else's work space in the department. Finally, I said out loud, "Okay, this was really cute, but I need to find that file. Can you please help me out?" It wasn't three minutes later that my absent co-worker popped into the office to pick up some travel directions he had left behind. I grabbed him and asked him where the two files were, and he said "right here." He walked to a drawer I had checked just ten minutes earlier, and there were the two files--the only things in the drawer. I did say "thank you," both to him and to whoever put the files back in the drawer for him to find! This kind of thing happens to me at home all the time, and sometimes I think it's happening at the office, but the coincidence this time makes it pretty hard to ignore--just reading the online articles on the subject, and then having it happen to me. At home, it's mostly a matter of things disappearing from my kitchen spice cabinet, only to reappear exactly where I just looked (the oregano seems quite elusive). And our playful spirit also likes to snag pieces of a jigsaw puzzle just long enough to make us crazy, and then place them in plain view where we've just looked. I get the feeling it's a "hey, look at me!" signal, so I've started talking out loud to him/her, just to give a gracious response. If this is a deceased family member's spirit, there are a couple of people who come to mind. In fact, there have been other occurrences--my bedside lamp turned on by itself one night, with my face not two feet away from it, and my husband has heard a woman calling his name several times in the night. I'm a little hard of hearing, and have never heard this--but I have heard a little tinkling bell that he's also heard, in the dead of night with no apparent source. I get the strong feeling that this activity is attached to us, and not to the house or my office. And it's oddly comforting, so I don't really care, as long as my lost objects turn back up when I need them.

I never heard it hit the floor either so fearing our mothers wrath of stepping on a twinkie we had a search party for the twikie. Think it may have bounced to the next room (do twinkies bounce?)I searched everywhere there. After 3 hours of searching for the culprit twinkie to no avail, we gave up. I found it a day later at the top of the Christmas tree in the westwing of the house. We`ere in the east. Asking my brother if it was his doing he said no. No one else knew of this Twinkie war.

When I came back from Iraq, I had a baby on the way. My wife and I went to my duty station after the baby was born, we had very little belongings with us, only what could fit on the plane, so clothes etc. When we got to my duty station we had a house waiting for us, but had to wait 4-6 weeks until the rest of our stuff came to us. Well, we didn't have everything for the baby, one thing was a crib. So we just decided to buy one in advance and set it up, because we( my wife, baby and I) were sharing a burrowed futon at night, every night. So we could sleep without the baby. So we bought a crib and we were setting it up, and we had the direction booklet in the babys room with us, there was nothing else in there but piles of clothes on the floor, and the parts to the crib, we started putting the crib together, and halfway through we just all the sudden couldn't locate the directions, so we picked things up, looked around, we just couldn't beleive it could disappear. But after about 10 minutes of searching, moving everything and searching the whole house, it couldn't be found, at the time, my wife started a big fight and blamed me, but I didn't hide it or something. She still doesn't beleive me, but maybe now I have a case to argue with after reading the other stories. I have never come across the book again. So I just don't know what to think. Ben <jewishslacker86 at yahoodot com> AZ USA - Sunday, March 25, 2007 at 21:28:11 (PDT) The guy who wrote before me I agree with, that we could transport many times in one day to parallel universes. Simply because i have had many experiences in my life, so small but significant that leads me to conclude we don't stay in the same universe all the time. One example I have never been able to forget. I had a junker car when I was 18, my first car ever, the oil leaked, the breaks squeaked the wipers didn't work kinda car. When I got a new car about a year later I always made a point to always park in a specific spot to avoid all the oil leaks my previous car had left behind, my driveway was off white and they were very prominent, one day I came home from work, went upstairs to change for a date, came back a half an hour later, and the oil leaks were GONE! I was like what the hell. I mean no complaints, but oil leaks don't disappear. And the driveway was spotless, dry, no evidence of any cover up. I was baffled and weirded out. When I returned later from the date I checked it out and they were still missing????? TO my knowledge they never returned. I have no explanation, to date! Kelli <beautifulbabe711 at yahoodot com> OH USA - Sunday, March 25, 2007 at 21:14:12 (PDT) Following my earlier post http://amasci com/weird/unusual/objs.html I started to pay particular attention to vanishing objects in my everyday life, with a view to expanding my theory that there may be some kind of 'Multiverse' interaction going on. I have also talked to various people regarding disapearing objects and found some interesting trends. Mainly there seems to be periods of time from several days to a couple of weeks. In cetain locales (a single dwelling or work place etc) where multiple items vanish. Some never to be seen again. After one of these 'Hot times' where several items of mine had vanished almost right before my eyes. I was prompted to email Dr Michio Kaku in the hope that a scientist of note, might take an interest in the subject of dispearing objects with special interest to multiverse theory. Here is a copy of the email (including spelling mistakes), which to date has had no response. LOL I wonder why??? Dear Dr Kaku, I have long held the belief that Multiverse theory is a distinct possibility. However I lack the firm academic background needed to pursue this area of science, as such I happily leave such things to noted persons such as your good self. That said, I do admit to spending much time devoting brain power to such theories and wish that I had strong enough mathematical skills to somehow add to the scientific endeavours. The reason I am writing is that I have two personal accounts which recently happened to me, that may be of interest to you. In particular they have started me on a line of thought regarding possible testing or study of certain aspects of Multiverse theory. I hope they are useful in some small way. Account 1) While sitting at my office (home) desk, I was using a small pair of nail clippers. To my left I have a tower case PC, which I use for creating music. As such It had a small midi keyboard along side it. The side of the case is always kept off, so I can swap the Hard drives, etc. conveniently. I was reading emails on my main pc which was to my right. I went to put the nail clippers down on top of the midi keyboard, but dropped them from a height of about 3 inches. They hit one of the keys of the keyboard and bounced into the tower case through the open side. I heard them rattle inside the case and quickly looked inside for them through the jumble of cables, etc., But could not see them. I wasn't at all bothered so turned back to my emails and left the clippers in sittue. Later, I went to retrieve the clippers. moving the keyboard and putting it on top of the case. I held the IDE and power cables out of the way and looked around inside the case, but was quite set aback that I could not see the clippers. This now became a mystery that needed to be solved, So I got a torch, removed the cables and thoroughly checked the inside of the pc case. I then checked under the case, around it, cleared the desk of all items. Checked the floor and finally sat back in complete amazement and swore loudly in disbelief. I must point out that the internal working of the pc are no mystery to me as I have built many thousands including the one in question. I can assure you that there is nowhere inside it or indeed in the local vicinity where the clippers could be hiding. Account 2) While undressing in the bedroom, Sat on the bed next to my wife. I removed my slippers, socks and trousers and talked to her for several minutes without moving. During the short conversation I was reminded that I had several chores that needed to be done before the morning, So accordingly I started to redress. However one of the socks that had been removed only minutes before and placed on the floor at my feet was missing. I checked inside my trousers, put my hands in the legs and then turned them inside out. checked in my slippers, under and around the bed and even the pockets of the trousers. I got up and looked around the immediate area which was bare of anything else and then checked the bedding itself. As the phrase says 'There it was, Gone' Both my wife and I were in complete disbelief and at a total loss for an explanation. As you can see from these slightly bizarre but very real accounts, which I believe are far from unique. It would seem that things really do 'Vanish into thin air' or certainly go somewhere. Obviously I do not expect you to accept these accounts as empirical data, however I must personally except them as such unless the items later turn up. In which case I will be seeking medical advise, and taking my wife along too. I was wondering if you are aware of whether a studies have been performed of unexplainable accounts such as these? Also whether you could see the implications to Multiverse theory and possible related tests? If you cannot, then I apologise for taking up your time with this email 'from left field,' The reason I have sent it, is because It is my strong belief that information needs to get to the people most able to deal with it. I hope that this is the case and this may prove to be the catalyst for a fruitful chain of thought (or perhaps one you have already followed?) regards Mr A Blainey Theory Man <ablainey'REMOVE THIS' at aoldot com> USA - Sunday, March 18, 2007 at 18:51:25 (PDT) I was going for a spoon to dish out a takeaway last night and when I opened my cutlery drawer I saw a spoon that I have never owned. All my spoons are of the same design and this one was completely different. No one else could have brought it in as i live alone. has anyone else experienced this kind of thing? Trevor Oliver Durham, UK - Monday, February 05, 2007 at 05:36:23 (PST) Strange but true. I am now 47yo I was i think about 6 or 7 at the time but here goes. I was visiting my friend's house and we were playing magic as all kids do at sometime. I was pretending to make my friends button badges disapear below a cusion I sat on it and said abra... you know the drill I then got up and low an behold the items vanished their were i think 5 or more ( Its forty years ago) my friend was very anoyed and our parents said stop aurguing so we did. He does not remenber the event, but it is clear a 10 seconds ago to me. I hope all the other events I have read here are true or else I am mad. great site. emails welcom!! admin(dot)urdns(A)gmaildot com Martin <admin(dot)urdns(A)gmaildot com> Oxford, UK - Sunday, January 21, 2007 at 17:41:09 (PST) i have hope when i read all these stories...here is why: about two weeks ago i was in my home in California, doing some housework. i took my engagement ring off, put it on the coffeemashine to do some dishes( coffeemashine isnt anywhere close to the sink). later on i remember very clearly taking the ring putting it back on. i did do a few more things around the house, not remembering ever taking it off. then i left on a mountainbike trip and i am super certain that i put the ring in the `secret spot`, which is where i leave it when i am traveling, or doing sports. i for sure didnt take it on the bikeride as my gloves don`t fit with the engagement ring on. having said this, i am always so paranoid about this engagement ring, always making sure its `safe`. anyhow, i returned from the bike ride and the ring wasnt in the `secret spot`.. i searched the house like a mad woman,every room, every drawer, behind the drawers, i even looked through the dog poop for the next couple of days. the house is really big, so it could be in many corners (5000sf)... anyhow, after a couple of days i left the house to go to ny for a week. i drove myself insane. i have no explanation what happened and i am going insane. nobody was at the house when this happened. it cant even fall through the sink, i mean did it fall in the toilet? i am feeling so stupid. how could it disappear? maybe the minute i`ll forget about( how can i?) it will show up again...i will keep you updated.. svenja p. <svenjaparotatat yahoodot de> new yorkny, USA - Monday, November 20, 2006 at 16:39:12 (PST) Here's a "screw-y" experience reported on the VORTEX-L discussion group Back to UNUSUAL PHENOMENA
