paranormal activities
Beyond natural explanation
Paranormal activities are phenomena that supposedly lie beyond the scope of normal scientific explanation—ghosts, hauntings, psychic events, and unexplained disturbances.
The phrase gained currency from the *Paranormal Activity* horror film franchise, where it typically describes supernatural occurrences in a home: The family reported paranormal activities after moving in.
Often used loosely for anything strange or inexplicable.
