Exorcised Coven Cottage haunted or glitched? Can't tell

So I am not sure if this is a feature to this place but I noticed some odd things about this house
1 I would occasionally see shadow figures here and there, maybe a face.
2 I would hear odd audio (like stuff you would hear from a tv) or even hear a bard over behind this one big boulder that has the two trees behind it... you know the one where you go by the cottage and you look westish. Audio I would hear is stuff from the bard like red diamond (I oddly don't like that song) and only heard male bard, other stuff I have heard was stuff that sounded unrelated to eso, stuff like music from fallout and some kind of church related stuff unrelated to fallout.

I've tried to do recorded audio of this on my xbox one but I can't do it and find it odd. I've talked to one other person and they had other things besides just the bard so I know I am not going crazy here. I think I was hearing stuff from other games I have downloaded on my system.

    Although this time it was on the left side, I forget that happens but I mostly experienced it on right side.

    The bard issue happens in open world (usually seems to be in a rock) and other houses as well. It's been in the game since around HotR atleast i think.

    interesting, but have you had things besides just bards doing it? if it is stuff outside of the eso game it does not record it in video so I get nothing.

    Oh good, so I'm not the only one that hears dialogue and calls for help. Haven't heard a bard though, that would make me move out.

    This was happening to a guildmate as well. I believe she said it self resolved today. But she did record video of it occurring near the rocks. perhaps the excorcisim wasnt successful-

    Everyone hates the male bard version of Red Diamond. There is a hope that once the Dark Anchors vanish from Tamriel (ie are removed from the game as the timeline advances) so too will this bard and his terrible off-key songs, Red Diamond included.

    We all know he is the human avatar of the God of Schemes.

    I'm so glad that this wasn't just me :)
    I had that happen recently in my Amaya and it freaked me out for a minute.. I thought maybe I was hearing some music from outside my home, and when I left, no one was there.. really strange, but kind of cool.

    Also, in regards to the "shadow" person in my Cottage.. yes, I have seen that too.. just once.. I thought it was my eyes playing tricks on me too. Maybe it's a feature to that home in particular? The description of the home, when I read it, seemed to allude to the home possibly being completely rid of spirits.. if they did put that in there, I like it ;)

    I can tell you this one of my guildmates just visited my home and it happened there. Like probably less than 10 minutes ago, xbox one.

    Yeah those ghostly black faces are kinda odd though but they rarely show up and only for short periods of times. I just need to remember to take a screen shot or record them instead of gawking at them.

    If you look out the front door you can often see the fog just rolling from north heading down south. Very awesome sunsets that you can see quite fairly often.

    I didn't see any while doing the video so there is that, I tried a few times to record them but they don't show. Then again might be because I tried to screenshot instead of record >_>'

    Don't forget to fill the 2 or 3 holes that lead outside... don't want something sneaking into your home while you sleep and snapping at ya : P

    You might see it by chance if you wait long enough I guess, I've seen them in like 5 spots I think

    By the water was a spot, the rock formations behind the hut seen there, in the hut is another by the fire, When you first walk into the home right before you go to the hut there is a path to the left, around there is 4th and 5th spot I seen was the right path along that ground dipping, the odd rock formations with those two trees about that area.
    I think those are all the areas I seen the phantom faces at. If I can't get a screenshot I hopefully will just take a picture with my phone if it can get it clear enough that is. Will see what I can do and hopefully fast enough to get the picture, they only last for like 2 seconds so you have to be looking at them to notice them. I don't notice really any audio thing that makes them appear. I think I have a funny about that thing being mentioned in a daily for gold coast >.> kind of reminds me of this.
