    Light turned on by itself
    So I couldn't sleep and I was sitting in my front room for hours listening to music on my earphones. (Dancing around a little bit too lol) I sat down and noticed the lights flickering on and off suddenly, and I was like What? So I kind of froze and stared at them and they came FULLY on and then after a few seconds went completely off, so I got out of there, freaked out.

    The reason it freaked me out so bad is because I stayed in a "haunted" hotel at the weekend, ghost hunting for Halloween. Just a bit of fun, we did it for a laugh. I didn't expect to see anything even though I would have liked to. I mean, the TV went off and then back on by itself but I don't know.

    Anyway, I'm just hoping someone can give me some kind of explanation because I'm scaring myself thinking I brought something back with me and now it's in my house lol. Can you put my mind at ease?

    By the way, it's a chandelier with a few bulbs in it and it has one of those dimmer switches.

Does anyone know why my light sometimes comes on hours after I've turned it on? [ 5 Answers ]

Sometimes it works immediately, and other times it comes on in the middle of the night even though I switched it on in the evening (it doesn't go off though, so it doesn't seem to be a loose connection problem). Thanks very much for your help!
