Just unexplained
Like most poster here it seems, I'm going to start with the standard "I don't believe in all that ghosts / supernatural bollocks". In fact I'm a pretty hard-core skeptic, fan of James Randi and so on. So I present these merely as things I can't explain, and invite suggestions.

One day I got a call from my wife, rather freaked. She'd been closing the oven door, perfectly normally and without unusual violence, when the whole thing - which was entirely made of glass - had shattered and sprayed her with hot shards. OK, scary but nothing spooky there, presumably a flaw in the glass or somesuch.

The next day we're standing in the kitchen, relating this story to a friend. On the kitchen surface next to me, about half a metre away, is a large glass frying pan lid. Which chooses that moment to spontaneously shatter and spray glass shards everywhere. No-one was touching it, it wasn't hot and it the cooker was off.

A few days later, I get another call at work. She'd looked out of the window and realised that the garden fence was on fire. Luckily she'd spotted it while it was still small, and put it out. It was a sunny day, so I assumed that it was perhaps sunlight refracting through glass, but a thorough search of the area turned up nothing.

Just coincidence and bad luck, of course. But I can see how someone with a looser grasp on reality could be convinced that they were under attack from evil spirits!

Probably little bastard scrotes from next door with an Air rifle and a lighter! (it's the kind of thing I would have done 20 years ago..) Lolzorz!!
