I actually have one to add to this thread!
The other night there was such a big storm (around 10pm?). I'm talking the real deal storm where the thunder was deafening and the lightening lit up the street. So I'm in the shower, minding my own business and I get out, get dressed, the usual, notice that it's raining particularly hard and then a sudden -CRACK- and the power goes out.
Obviously been in blackouts before, I stumble around in the dark for a bit looking for a torch or my mobile to make my way upstairs. It was at this point that various lights on my level of the the house start flickering on and off, dimming then going bright etc. Yep, a little wierded out at the moment, but no biggie. I find my mobile from a lightening crack lighting my room and press some buttons to light up the screen, make my way down the hall. To my right there is a built-in air conditioning panel which lights up and selects choices etc when you press the keypad. As soon as I step past it lights up, projecting numbers and letters that have never even been displayed before, before turning off. Okay now I was a little spooked. It did it again, in synch with a lightening crack before I sprinted upstairs to find my family all in the lounge room.
I get there, explain what happened all while strangely noticing that the radio is on. It wasn't a radio station as it was discernable ramblings and wouldn't turn off from the off on button, not even when the cord was pulled out. The storm started moving away from us but the lights were still flickering, the radio was still on and now the oven had started making noises. (kitchen next to lounge room). Now ovens can make noises heating up amongst other things, but this was different. It sounded like someone was clawing at the inside of the oven, and stopped when it was opened, touched or walked past.
Okay, all symptoms of a power-outage, and as the storm had totally passed (no rain, lightening, only a low rumble of thunder every now and again) I had the job of checking the switchbox. Yeah, you guessed it, no switches had been flipped at all. Total mind trip.Maybe your house was conducting electricity via lightning? I'm probably wrong, just guessing.
I had an experience maybe 7-8 years ago that was scary.
Every night one year for like a month I'd wake up at exactly the same time every night to find 2 glowing green orbs (back then I called them eyes) at the entrance to my room. I'd doze off, wake up, and they're still there. This recurred once like 3-6 months ago, and now, while playing Xbox Live once or twice every week, my radio will turn itself on and start playing my Nickelback CD (which I have no problem with, I <3 Nickelbacks music). And it doesnt turn off when press the power button on and off or when I unplugged it. It keeps playing for like a half an hour, sometimes more, then stops.
My house is built on an Indian burial ground.
As one other guy said before, if I'm lying, I'm dieing.
