How bizarre can obsessions actually get?

So this evening I was sat outside a shop waiting for my partner and I glanced across the street. There is a butchers and I noticed above it, a light was on in what looked like a flat. As soon as I saw it and thought about people living above a butchers I instantly thought "omg what if the ghosts of the animals from the butchers actually haunt the people upstairs. What if they haunt me from when I ate meat? Can that happen??" then I started to panic and figure out how I could protect myself.

 

Now this isn't something I've ever heard anyone say before, but I do have harm obsessions and this seems to be in the same vein...does it seem that way?

They can be really, really, really bizarre.  Because they're thoughts.  And thoughts can be bizarre as hell.  You're fine.  Don't worry about it.  Just learn to be like 'wow, i think some weird s*it sometimes' and leave it at that.
