With the lights off?I would guess at a hotel worker dodging in to change clothes, getting his trousers off and suddenly realising that the room is occupied, possibly?

Whoa. That is really wild !!!This afternoon I was looking for a parking spot in a very congested area. Turned the corner and there were two spots in front of my building, which itself is a major strangeness. One a little too small for my car. I was backing up to use the second one when someone else came along in a smaller vehicle. Through hand signals we agreed that he would back up, I would take the longer space (space #1) , he would take the shorter space ( space #2), etc. I did, he did, then he got out and directed me in squeezing my car along the curb. I opened the window and asked if he was OK in space #2, he nodded, lit a cigarette, and turned away. I turned off the car, picked up my bag, got out of my car, and there was no car parked in space #2. Was this a parking angel?
If he was just looking to do a very quick change before going home, then yes. Nip into room, change clothes, out and away without putting on lights to show other staff that you're using a room rather than the toilets to change in. Get trousers off, suddenly hear breathing or turning over from one of the beds, panic, struggle in to spare trousers and dash from the room.With the lights off?

No, he was parked 2 spaces in front of me. But why in that neighborhood give up a parking space on impulse?Wow that's an odd one. I like stories like that
Was the street long enough that you would have seen his car driving away (if he'd changed his mind about parking, for instance)?
I hate asking questions sometimes cos I don't always want there to be a logical explanation... you know?
For those who will know, this was in the East 70's.No, he was parked 2 spaces in front of me. But why in that neighborhood give up a parking space on impulse?

That is really creepy. Why a man etc etc etc
Why is that?.. also, might not be the best idea to jam a hotel door shut from the inside, depending on kind of hotels you frequent ... eg red roof inns
Is it a smart TV?
Not a smart TV...
Cat and Fiddle.....
Over the last 9 months, my TV has come on four times at precisely 5.05am..... this includes twice that it has happened since Daylight Saving......

I have two deaf cats, one of which sleeps in the corner behind the tv and on each occasion when i have sprung out of bed to turn off the box, the cat has been sleepily stretching and coming out from the corner as if someone in the room has woken her....
I don't feel afraid or feel that there is any maliciousness involved but it's freaky
Her friend must have been nearby, then?Earlier today a friend visited me who was telling me some of the signs she has had from a friend who died a couple of years ago. Whilst chatting I said I could smell oranges (Unusual because I have no real sense of smell). She then told me she was planning on planting an orange tree for him.
It the TV set to automatically look for and download new firmware?Do you mean the 4 TV activation incidents occurred at the same 'clock time' (0505), regardless of whether Daylight Saving Time was in effect? In other words - 2 happened under DST, and 2 under standard time?
Correct.
It's not a smart TV, it keeps waking me up!!!

Or set to wake on LAN activity? Is anything else connected to the TV?

There's a lamp in the vicinity which emits light at the same frequencies as your remote?no
not connected to anything and has no bells and whistles
it's just an ordinary, out of the box Samsung flat screen tv
If your remote control and TV use infrared it's possible it's influenced by lights from other sources.do you mean a remote controlled lamp/bulb
by infra red light sources ?If your remote control and TV use infrared it's possible it's influenced by lights from other sources.
do smart meters connect to your home wifi/network ? i wouldnt be in favour of configuring this ...smart meters ... would give access to your phones , computers etc.
