House has been noisy

The house has been exceptionly noisey the past few days. Sounds like doors slamming, thumps, bangs and other sounds that seem to have no rational explaination. One very loud sound that I heard as I was working on a project in the kitchen, sounded very much like a large shelf full of materials had gave way, sounded a lot like pots and pans but ended with an eerily tinkling or rolling sound like a bell or lid vibrating to a stop. Anything large like that should be pretty quickly noticed, wouldn't you think? It hasn't shown up yet. This house tends to go through these noisy cycles and most of the time no explaination is ever found for the noise. If you ever have a yen for living in an old antique of a house; do be prepared for the unusual.

Wife furious

In the past, events in this house, while spooky or irritating, has never, until today, been vicious. Today, in the early afternoon, I came in from working in the garage, mainly because of the heat and very high humidity. The house is still cool and far drier than the out of doors. I told my wife I was knocking off for an hour or so to cool down. I had several things I needed to check out on the computer so I headed for the library and got to it. My wife was starting supper and watching her favorite TV shows on a new 7 inch model TV that sat on the mantel over the kitchen fireplace. I hadn't worked but a few minutes when I hear a tremendous crash. Moving immediately I rushed to the kitchen and found my wife still standing by the kitchen stove with her mouth open. Looking at me she said " The TV just raised up into the air and was thrown down onto the floor". Rushing over to the area I saw the TV smashed, a heavy pottery jar that was under it had a broken lid (those sets weigh less than a pound). That TV had to have been slammed with a lot of force to break a large, heavy, fired clay jar lid. Obviously the "haunt" doesn't like Opera any more than I do....probably less, I wouldn't smash the set, I'd just turn it off. Something owes me the price of a TV...dang it. The TV has sit on the mantel for two months, since it was bought new. It had ample space all around it. The mantle is level and was uneffected. The doors were all closed. It was sunny and hot outside. So what would lift a small TV into the air and propel it forcefully into a large ceramic jar, busting the lid and then onto the floor? I hope this isn't a new side to this house's weirdness.
