Hmm - Where were Tirzah and Olivia at the time?
There’s no power socket down there, is there?
Definitely a ghost. A ghoulish wraith invading your home. So…who you gonna call!..Finish the sentence. 
Ghostbusters!
And me!!!
Strange lights come and go, you’ve just got to wait until you see something concrete.
So! Did you see anything last night?
As a matter of interest-
radiation zipping through eyes are like subatomic bullets. When a “bullet” strikes the retina, it triggers a false signal that the brain interprets as a flash of light.
They were both upstairs and Tirzah had a torch…:shock:
No sockets there. Nearest is about six feet away.
An electrician?. :shock::-p
Interesting. Do you have access to any papers on the subject. As a radiographer, I never experienced that sort of thing although, of course, there’s radiation and there’s radiation.
No… I tried to recreate the scene but with no success. 
I was plastered at the time. :-p
Now that’s interesting. We do live in a high Radon area. :shock::shock:
That looks like you have a glass panel in your front door and the light could have been someone shining a slim torch through your letterbox while they looked for a hall table where car keys are sometimes kept. Many cars have been stolen over night via that easy car collection route and a long reach key collector.
Ah! 
Nope, I just heard an astronaut describe the on going effect inside their capsule-which they had to live with.
It stuck in my mind because I had experienced similar with some force that even my ears heard it.
Ah, gamma radiation, I assume.
That’s far less common and far less strong here on Earth.
Thanks LD, that also crossed my mind but the front door is directly in front of me as I came down the stairs. I’m pretty sure I would have seen that first??
