The past few months I've been seeing a seemingly porcelain man who has no face except to black as night eyes. Things have been shooting across my room at times and an old out of battery christmas music bear keeps playing music at night. Ive also been waking up with cuts and I've found flammable objects in the oven. Whenever I record audio there's a voice in the backround. Is this going too far?

In it, "Shangri-La" is a mystical, harmonious valley, gently guided from a lamasery, enclosed in the western end of the Himalaya.

We all know that they're just movies,... but we were wondering, is there really such a thing as "booby traps" set by ancient civilizations to protect there crypts, tombs, treasures, etc. like in The Mummy, or any of the Indiana Jones movies?

Or is the concept a complete Hollywood fabrication?

Thanks
