My mom has a loft at her house. The stairs and indeed the entire loft are wooden, with cross beams supporting the floor.
I'm staying with her for the time being, as she doesn't want to stay alone right now - there's weird stuff going on in the complex.
Anyway this morning I wake up and I notice this red light on the underneath side of the wood which is the floor of the loft. There's a knot in the wood there, and it glows red every now and then. I went and checked upstairs to see if it could possibly be light shining through the knot and then glowing at the bottom, but the top of the knot is covered by a wooden PC desk, so no light is coming from above. That said, even if there was light from above, I highly doubt it could penetrate 20mm of wood.
I moved the wooden PC desk away and checked under it - no funnies there, it's standard.
I then started chipping away at the knot with a screwdriver and hammer (didn't have a chisel) and the light kept shining - didn't affect it at all.
I'm going to try get the knot out later to investigate further, but this is plain weird.
There's no alarm so it can't be a sensor. There's no smoke detectors or any other electronic devices which would either
a) have two lights (I'm guessing there's 2 LEDs in there), or
be placed INSIDE a wooden knot.
My thinking is that it is either radioactive dinosaur hatchlings, CIA spy devices, or it falls under the category of weird ****.
I have my tin foil hat being made as we speak.
Here's a video...
