Has anyone else noticed orbs only show up in certain rooms and never others?

Been thinking about this a lot lately after running a few sessions in my house up here in Cumbria. The front bedroom and the old kitchen consistently throw up orbs on camera, but the living room and bathroom - absolutely nothing, ever. Running a Ricoh WG-70 for stills and a basic IR trail cam overnight.

My working theory is that it's less about the room and more about what the room contains or has experienced. The front bedroom was apparently used as a sick room by previous occupants (landlord mentioned it casually, didn't think much of it at the time). The kitchen is the oldest part of the structure, probably mid-Victorian.

A few things worth considering when comparing rooms:

Air circulation differences - yes, I know the dust/moisture argument, but airflow patterns genuinely vary room to room and could affect both genuine phenomena and false positives, EMF baseline - I've measured noticeably higher readings near the kitchen range area, Historical use - rooms with more human activity over time seem more active in my experience

What I'd push back on is the idea that orbs appearing in specific rooms automatically means they're residual rather than intelligent. My spirit box sessions (using a Panasonic RF-2400 sweep) pick up more responsive audio in exactly those same rooms too, which feels like more than coincidence.

Has anyone else cross-referenced orb locations against EMF readings or done audio work in the same spots? Curious whether the pattern holds elsewhere or if I'm just seeing what I want to see.

@HarryOkafor11 Worth cross-referencing your orb locations against a few environmental variables before drawing paranormal conclusions - dust accumulation patterns, humidity differentials, and air circulation routes are the obvious culprits. Old kitchens and bedrooms often have disturbed particulate matter from foot traffic and bedding.

That said, there's a genuinely interesting spatial clustering phenomenon documented in several serious investigations where orbs do persist in specific locations even after controlling for the mundane variables. The Enfield case materials touch on this.

What camera setup are you running? Near-infrared illumination at close range produces dramatically different orb signatures than visible-light. If you're using something like a Sony A7S with IR-cut removed, the false-positive rate drops considerably - but anomalous returns become more interesting when they persist.

Map your orb coordinates precisely against the building's original floor plan if you can access it. Room function history matters enormously here.

@HarryOkafor11 my living room has never produced a single orb either and honestly I think the spirits just find it boring in there, can't blame them really, I've got a beige sofa and a broken remote for the telly.

But on a more serious note - the room-specific pattern is genuinely interesting and I don't think its just
