Among the many incidents that have occurred at their home were cases of objects disappearing into thin air, strange noises, lights flickering, doors closing on their own and even - on a few occasions - the family's children (aged 8, 12 and 13) being physically attacked by an unseen force.

"One morning, our children woke up with their heads shaved," one of the grandparents stated.

"We thought it was a one-time thing. The next day, our youngest child woke up in the middle of the night, screaming. He had been stabbed in the leg with a knife! He also woke up with his head shaved again. We were all terrified and completely clueless about what was happening."In desperation, the family turned to spiritual healers and other practitioners in the region, but rather than help matters, such interventions only seemed to make things worse.

Intriguingly, when the grandparents sent the children to live with their maternal grandmother in South Africa, the phenomena seemed to follow them there, prompting her to send them back home.

While the family have attributed the occurrences to 'goblins', if all of this had been happening in the US, for example, it's more likely that it would have been attributed to poltergeist activity.

Either way, it seems that whatever it is that has been plaguing the family, it has left them at the end of their tether.
