Actually it is not that uncommon of an event. Each cube tray is surroundeded by cold air from above and beneath, which causes the ice to form around the pereimeter of the cube. As the water goes from liquid to a solid form it expands forcing the water in the middle through the thinnest layer of ice (heat rises)at the top from there capillary action takes over the outer layer solidifies, the core remains liquid and continues to rise. It is a sort of cold volcano, only water spurts out instead of magma.

Obviously, that which was once a liquid in the ice tray, which appears frozen is probably asyrupy solution. Perhaps a super saturated mix of sugat and water or some other substance which would thicken the constitution of the solution. Perhaps a finger or other probing object was inserted into the solution and withdrawn at the precise angle pictured, which froze quickly or hardened dude to a reduction in temperature. Apparently the rest of the frozen structure was broken off, the which was connected to the probing object, leaving the "spike"-like object remaining. Very interesting photo, also to be noted is the uneven surface texture of the "ice cube" upon which the spike is protruding...hmmm.
Response: What at first appears obvious, is often not. The ice cube is still in my freezer. It is a regular ice cube, and was not fooled with in any way. This oddity is not man made. The ice tray was filled at about 9AM and by noon this appeared on its own. That needle of ice occurred by itself. I am not trying to fool anyone. The Queen is annoyed because I won't let her (or the servants) use the ice tray. I have left it in its natural state. Very weird, eh?

The Ice tray had another package sitting on it at an angle. The other package was moist, and the moistness collected on the lower edge, and ran towards the lowest corner. It bult up and froze there, notice the mound at the base of the needle. When the upper package was removed, the frozen run of ice on the lower edge od the package remained atteaced to the ice tray.
The first picture shows exactly how the cube tray was in the freezer. It was laying flat with nothing over it. That spire shot up sideways. Also the tip was as sharp as a needle.

What you have i known as the "Holmesian Effect", normally reserved for limp flesh which is triggered into an erectile response to the sight, smell, thought, dream, wish of a scantilly clad femalia homosepian. It has been in noted in various scientific studies over the past millenium (being the past millenium to date, the articles began on July 27, 1000)that this strange phenomonon has been arched (as electrical arc would)into in-organic matter, not possessing a carbon chain had once been suspected of reason for the lack of the Holmesian Effect amongst inorganic matter, alas certain female scents have been shown to get "a rise" out of such matter. To the subject at hand it could be something as simple as a tasty chicken fillet, or a plump pork chop laying beside your ice tray which could cause such an event.

Ice Crystals, apparently you have hard water in your community and the minerals form crystals. Look at the rest of the cubes, they have a lot of white crystal formation in them. Now crystals do a lot of things that seem weird, one of which is this sort of formation. It is very rare that it rise to that height, but has been know to happen. The minerals in your hard water started making trianglar shape and then kept going as the water started to freeze the minerals wicked the moisture upwards even further. I also noticed the amount of accumulated frost on the sides of your freezer, evidence of the moist conditions of your freezer over time. There are sulfur caves like Lecha Geeya (sp?) that have similar formations that seemed mysterious to its early explorers as well. Solution, if you don't want freaky looking ice buy a better freezer, or buy a water filter and get the minerals out of your hard water.

Ice that had formed at the top of the freezer had come ajar, it dropped into the ice cube tray during "hyper-cool", the nanosecond just before the ice tray "insta-freezed". the fallen ice fell into the cube, splashing and freezing mid splash.

what happened here is you have a mix of polluted water and some very pure water. The mixture is about 99 polluted-1 pure what happened is that the pure water was lighter than the polluted water and started stacking when it became frozen.

In my opinion, the above event was nothing more than a drop of water hitting the water that you placed in the tray. When water, or any liquid for that matter, freezes, it expands. You may have either left the door open long enough to cause the melting of some ice accumulated on the top of the freezer, or there may have been a crack in the material that seals the door, causing it to drip down and splash water on the side of the tray. Water also has a property called cohesion. What happens is, the water is attracted to other accumulations of water near it, and thus, when expanding, will attach, forming you "paranormal" event.

He eats frozen stuff and plays with your thing in there... you never happened to find one of your bag opened or slighty slided ? Many peple have an alien inside their Freezer..

You may have filled you ice cube tray up with water which had a tiny compliment of liquid polymer.
Polymers are a type of molecule that are incredibly long, rather than being large and complex like carbon molecules in diamond, they are a simple arrangement of atoms repeated thousands or millions of times over in a long chain. Crude Oil contains many liquid polymers such as parafin, petrol, etc etc.
It is quite conceivable that a single, small and perfectly harmless liquid polymer came out of your kitchen tap into the ice tray and when the temperature dropped it began to unravel itself and become straight. Since the water around it was begining to thicken as it froze, one end of the polymer may have anchored itself to the bottom layer of ice and the other end rose up out of the tray.
Since the strand was covered a little water (not too much or it would've been too heavy) this may have frozen to, with extra water being drawn up the stalagmite as it become firmer for any number of reasons.
Such as: If any ionized water molecules were in the tray (very common but harmless and difficult to spot) they may have been attracted to the electrical wiring in your fridge and used the strand as a means of climbing upwards closer to the electric field that it was attracted to.
This would account for the thickness of what you found as a frozen polymer string is microscopic. You could have snapped it or as you open the fridge door, it is literally that thin and weak. But water may be drawn up along it and increase the frozen mass and thus it's strength also.

dude, somebody stuck an icicle into the ice cube while it was water, it melted a little, becoming thin.. it happened in the wintertime didn't it? um... someone also could have stuck an icicle with a broader base.. as yours has.. onto an existing ice cube in the tray.. it would bond, and stick there. for the fluid look, you could let it sit in room temperature for a few minutes.. then.. put it back into the freezer.. nice trick though.

It appears as though the ice cube was formed by a quick freezing of a bursting bubble. I see nothing paranormal about this photo but I can understand why one might think it would be. This happens a lot in nature (I am a volcanologist and I see the same thing in lava flows every now and then). An air bubble was caught beneath the surface on the cube. The water bagan to freeze and perhaps you bumped your fridge, the ice shifted, or it cracked and the bubble exploded on the surface. Notice how fine the string is, this is because a small amount of water was expelled during the bursting of the buble and it was so cold it froze in mid air. You caught something very rare and neat to look at. COOL!

I can't explain it. However, I have noticed that in our freezer, at work, that they occur regularly as long as I fill the trays with bottled water. When my boss fills the trays, he uses tap water and they never form. We have had as many as 8 out of 12 of the cubes have growths. Interestingly, if I do not empty the trays, the growths lose their shape after about 24 hours, usually ending in only a small bump on the surface of the cube. Good luck finding an answer.

Most ice cube trays produce a few spikes, but only if distilled water is used. Millions of people make ice cubes every day using ordinary tap water, and none see ice spikes.
To see why this is, consider the top of a growing ice spike. As the water freezes around the top of the tube, it leaves any impurities behind, since these do not become incorporated into the ice crystal lattice.
With tap water, impurities soon build up to such high levels at the tip of the spike that the water will no longer freeze.
In other words, any spike that starts forming from tap water will soon stall.
Indeed, ice cubes grown from tap water often have lumpy surfaces, which you might call short stubby ice spikes. But the impurities in tap water will prevent the formation of long thin ice spikes.
