A haunted hotel room

We were given room 1004 and it is haunted. Our room was blackout and in total darkness for 4 times as the room card flew off to the ground by itself breaking the circuit. It was on the ground each after we placed it back, we immediately request for changing of room and no questions were asked by the front desk.
