Some Other Spooky Accounts Resemble Mine

 There is a new edition of the Edge Science publication, available here.  We read the following interesting information:

"English researchers Alan Gauld and A.D. Cornell were the first to conduct a large-scale analysis of poltergeist infestations in the late 1970s. After examining 500 international cases from 1800, they found 63 points of commonality, including: 

• 64% of cases featured the manipulation of small objects, including movement, disappearances, and apports, or spontaneous transference from one location to another;

 • 58% peaked after nightfall;

 • 48% involved rapping sounds; 

• 36% included the movement of heavy furniture; 

• 24% exceeded 365 days;

 • 16% featured communication between poltergeist and apparent agent;

 • 12% involved opening/closing doors/windows."

I have had many previous experiences suggesting the idea of apports, cases in which a small object such as a coin seems to appear from out of nowhere. I have also witnessed a locked door mysteriously open. You can read about such experiences in my long account here. 

In the article we also read the following:

“ 'Ghost hunters have long lamented the strange ability of spirits to kill electronic equipment, whether it be draining fresh batteries in a matter of minutes, causing camera malfunctions during critical moments, or even straight up frying electronics,'  Greg Newkirk wrote."

Besides getting several mysterious camera failures while photographing falling water drops, I very frequently get an anomaly of an unexplained draining of fully charged batteries. I have rechargable batteries that I recharge very often. I use the batteries with the flash unit attached to the top of my Sony A6100 camera. I always try to make sure I have several sets of fully charged batteries when I start a session of water drop photography. On very many days I have found that a fully charged pair of batteries will act as if drained of charge as soon as I try to use it. This will very often happen to three or four pairs of batteries on a single day, even though I had previously fully charged all of the batteries.  I also get a mysterious light burst effect ten or more times almost every day I photograph falling water drops, in which a whole photo will be filled up with a strange burst of light that I can't explain. 

The Edge Science edition makes this interesting statement: "Even more confounding are examples where anomalous orbs of light are recorded in sites of heavy Bigfoot activity."
