This happened to me when I was about 7 or 8 years old I think, maybe younger. (I'm 14 now) I was in the attic cleaning. Not my favorite place to be. Our attic always scared me for some reason. Going up there to put away my toys by myself was always a nightmare. I always thought there was something up there. Anyway, I was up there cleaning up some linking logs (building blocks) up that I had been playing with. The box was a few feet behind me and I was facing away from it. I through a linking log over my shoulder and then listened to see if I heard it go into the box. I heard nothing. (I would have at least heard it hit the hard floor.) So I was about to turn around to see what had happened when something hit me REALLY hard in the back of the head right above my neck and I mean HARD! I turned around to see what it was and I saw the linking log I had thrown. It was like something caught it and chucked it at my head. (No, I did not though it high in the air and have it land on my head. The time between when I through it and when it hit me seemed to long for that, and it hit me really hard harder then It would have if it had dropped on me.) I paused for a second before running screaming down the attic stairs. If I remember correctly mom didn't really believe me when I told her what happened, but she also didn't make me go up there again that day. Now I'm not scared of the attic. I like it up there. It's really the only place where I get my privacy, and whatever was in the attic is now I believe in my kitchen.
