Is it possible for someone's spirit to contact you through household items?

Question

a friend of mine passed away recently and at about the same time, one of my kid's electronic toys went off for no reason.

Answer 1

yes people in mexico believe that and that is why they celebrate day of the dead...its a day to remember and commemorate the dead through household items that the dead person loved/enjoyed. they belive that the dead talk 2 them through this items.

Answer 2

Well, I dunno about electronic toys, but I once got in contact with my great-grandfather through a candle. It was very cool at the time, I could hear his voice and everything.

Answer 3

No ... Never heard of a toaster that does channeling.

Answer 4

after my grandpa died the blender would turn on all by itself.  it happened quite a few times.  i am sure he was trying to communicate with us.  yes, i think this is possible.

Answer 5

No. There is no such thing as spirits interacting with the real world.

Answer 6

toys that are low on batteries do weird things including what your child's toy did....maybe try replacing the batteries....

Answer 7

possibly yes

Answer 8

I have one of those old microwaves that you don't need to have the door closed to make it run. Sometimes I stick my head in there and I feel all kinds of spirits.

Answer 9

No.  That was a coincidence.

Answer 10

I'd guess it unlikely but not impossible.  The human body does possess an electrical charge.  When a soul departs the body that electrical charge might be discharged somewhere.  Did this electronic toy hold any significance in your friendship?  While I wouldn't entirely rule out the possibility, I'd look for more practical explanations.

Sorry for your loss.

Answer 11

No.  It is not possible.

Our personalities do not go on after we die.  That belief came about because it appeals to Wishful Thinking.

There was a reason the toy went off, and it isn't a supernatural one, just because you can't figure out what that explanation is.

Answer 12

Maybe...

The intuitive sense you had that the toy going off is connected to the death is surely meaningful; what it means is difficult to determine.  

There is much that we only pretend to understand about the relationship between the seen and the unseen.

Answer 13

Yes. Spirits have been shown to affect electromagnetic impulses in studies.

There is a cold spot in my girlfriend's house and if you bring a cell phone into that area it starts showing random numbers on the screen and acting up.

Answer 14

Yea in fact it's more likely they would come to you by moving something you associate with them rather than exhausting the energy required to physically appear.

Answer 15

Sorry for your loss.. 80% of the population believe in the after life..and its common for spirit energy to use the electric power in homes to contact you and let you know they are there... and toys and phones and water and doors and the list is endless .. They can and will use what they can to get your attention.

Answer 16

its possible, but toys can do that somethymes on there own
