Hengul J Das and Shikha Gautam, affiliated with ''[[The Times of India]]'', have documented accounts from local residents regarding a peculiar belief surrounding the Rodrigues Home. According to these reports, the doors and windows of the house are said to exhibit an ability to open and close autonomously, while the lights within intermittently flicker. Furthermore, individuals have claimed that the cutlery within the house mysteriously moves without any discernible external cause. These reported phenomena have contributed to the house's reputation as a site imbued with an eerie and unsettling aura.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Gautam |first=Hengul J. Das and Shikha GautamHengul J.
