Seemingly straight out of an old mummy movie, a bizarre statue in a Manchester museum rotates on its own while inside a locked glass case!
The statue was found in a mummy’s tomb and Egyptologist, Campbell Price, believes that the spirit of the mummy has possessed the statue and cursed the museum. Price is the only one who has a key to the glass case which houses the statue and has noted that the statue will end up changing positions throughout the day. However, it remains still at night!
Price and his colleagues set up a time lapsed video to figure out if the statue actually could be moving on its own and the results were affirmative! “Although the naked eye can’t see it, you can clearly see it rotate on the film,” Price revealed.
While most people are happy to believe that this is the work of a tricky spirit, Professor of physics, Brian Cox, states that the statues probably moves due to very slight vibrations which occur between the statue and its stand.
Do you think this statue is housing a spirit of an ancient mummy or can science easily explain this occurrence?
