Lid Levitation?

 I continue to observe at irregular intervals spooky things happening where I live. You can read quite a few posts I have made about such events by using the link here.  A few days ago my Simplisafe home alarm device acted strangely. Whenever I turn off the alarm in the morning, I get a recorded voice saying, "Alarm off." But a few days ago when I turned off the alarm, the voice simply said, "Alarm." 

 I also get unpredictable results from recharging electronic devices overnight. I recharge my laptop computer and my I-Pad overnight. In the morning I often find them with random levels of charge, anything from 100% to nearly 0%. 

This morning something very strange happened in my bathroom. After using the toilet, I left the bathroom, and at about the moment I got to my bed, I heard a loud recognizable noise. It was the sound of the toilet lid falling down from a raised position. At first I thought, "I must have just somehow positioned the lid so that it might fall down about five seconds later."  But I did tests in the morning showing that such an explanation does not work. 

Tests I did showed there are only 4 possible "lid states" of the toilet:

(1) A "both lids up" state that is stable.

(2) A "both lids down" state that is stable.

(3) A "lower lid down and upper lid up" state that is stable. 

(4) Some state in which either lid is neither fully up nor fully down,  which is an extremely unstable state that will always cause that lid to fall down within one second. 

So how could the toilet lid have loudly fallen down in an empty bathroom about five seconds after I had left the bathroom? There seems to be no natural explanation.  It was as if the toilet lid had briefly levitated. 

In the 19th century a host of witnesses would report levitations in their house. The most common report would be of table levitations.  Endless seance witnesses would report tables either rising on two legs or fully levitating in the air.  Very many times witnesses would report no one was touching the table when such events occurred. Such observations seeming to indicate spirit manifestations have been senselessly censored from the pages of this century's history books and science books.  You can read many accounts of such observations (often reported simultaneously by three or more named witnesses) in my  "Spookiest Years" series  (herehereherehereherehereherehere, here, herehere,  herehere and here and here).
