Never on the plot, but then it's quite open.  In my house however......all the time!  Mind you given that I investigate "paranormal" happenings as a hobby, you'd think I'd be less spooked by now wouldn't you lol  ;D

Over the winter, I put a shed on my plot.  As sheds go, it's pretty flimsy and because I hadn't fitted it out yet, it was nearly empty and very light.  Around 3 months ago when the severe gales were forecast for Sunday night/Monday morning, I realised the shed wouldn't survive the night so cycled over to the site very late on Sunday night when it was blowing a hooley.  I filled the shed with paving slabs, bags of sand, pretty much everything on my plot with any weight, all by torchlight in a howling gale and all alone.  Our site is large with over 200 plots and is surrounded on 3 sides by parkland and my plot is as far away from the gates as you can get so it feels very isolated.  I  was definitely very spooked, couldn't get out quick enough.

It was worth it though, 4 sheds were blown over but mine wasn't one of them!

My plot is within about 5 meters of a graveyard next to an abandoned chapel (now a house), the residents dont bother me much though.
