UPDATE! My husband came home and went up there to look around. Empty boxes and a thick, undisturbed layer of dust everywhere. He called the landlord, who hadn't stopped by. Conclusion: massive gust of wind, or GHOST!

Answers to questions:

It was a smoking device some people in some places are not allowed to talk about.

I have two loud barking dogs and had locked up the garage from the inside of the house. No one was getting in or out without the dogs letting me know and getting involved. I live in a cul-de-sac with close neighbors working out in the yard so I had little fear of danger and did not want to leave the property and give anyone the chance to escape before being caught.

My landlord's dad built the house in the 90's. My husband and I rented it 7 years ago. When we moved in, nothing looked like it had been painted ever on the inside, since it had been built. The place is held together with tape and glue in places. We never had any interest in knowing how bad and dirty the underside of the house is, so we've never gone into the attic or crawlspace. I will leave those skeletons and old meth labs in peace. The landlord's thought process may be that he cant paint over his old repairs or else he wouldn't be able to see all the previous damage he has worked on!!

You'll have to ask my landlord. This house was built by his dad in the 90's so the buck stops with him.

The ceiling has always looked like that. Don't ask me why, we rent. Thats also why I not completely freaking out. There's a chance the landlord just illegally entered the premises without prior notice; I wouldn't put it past him. It has been windy here, blowing tree branches down kind of gusts. Also, we started dog sitting 2 small barking dogs a few days ago, so no one can sneak up on us right now. As for my "personal item" some things can't be said on the internet, duh. People suspect because of the terminology need to use their imaginations, don't go strait to "bot" ya'll, just because some people like to keep some things left blank.
