Mystery: Ancient Egyptian statue start to spin round in a display case: WATCH

It sounds like Hollywood action adventure “Night in the Museum”.

Relic of the god of death found inside mummy's tomb and kept in museum for 80 years starts spinning on its own.

But the 'mystery of the 10-inch moving mummy', an offering to the Egyptian God Osiris, was found in a mummy's tomb and has been at the Manchester Museum for 80 years. 

Recently, curators at the museum have been curious after they kept finding it facing the wrong way. They now believe there could be a 'spiritual explanation' for the turning statue.

Egyptologist Mr Price, 29, said: 'I noticed one day that it had turned around.

'I thought it was strange because it is in a case and I am the only one who has a key.

'I put it back but then the next day it had moved again.

Experts decided to monitor the room on time-lapse video and were astonished to see it clearly show the statuette spinning 180 degrees with nobody going near it.

The statue seen to remain still at night but slowly rotate during the day.

Now Campbell Price, a curator at the museum on Oxford Road, said he believes there may be a spiritual explanation to the spinning statue.

Now scientists are trying to explain the phenomenon.
