What are strange things you have seen in other people homes?
I knew this gay male couple who had male adonis figure all around the home. Nude males on the walls these penis like book ends .
I knew this lady who had Christmas trinklets all over her house .
You could not set anything down in her home because all the tables where full of them and so was the shelves and it was like this all year long.

The owners!
I try not to judge because I do some strange things myself. Like I keep up our Music Box Santa collection up year round. We have enough books and DVd's to open our own library. So I guess I'm saying the strangest house I've been in is my own!

Well, since you stole my answer, I'll steal the one you would have given in reply to mine, and say "Go to your room!" NMS.. 
Just kidding, I can't recall any specific instances of strange things I've seen inside people's homes, but that of course depends on your own definition of "Strange".

I was visiting some friends awhile back and they had this 'thing' on the kitchen table, and no one knew what it was. Looked like a blob of....something...but it was made out of oxidized steel (?) and no one even knew anything about it, they saw it at a yard sale for 3 bucks, and the seller didnt even know what it was, it was given to her. Hard to describe, but the closest I can describe was a partially melted Hershey Kisses shape, about the size of a paperback book, but it was steel (aluminum maybe?), heavy for its size and all oxidized. Now I know most of my friends are wierd, but...
I do recall many years ago, in the home cleaning business, my partner and I were changing the sheets on a person's bed (this person was a real estate lady) when she (my partner) took the pillowcase off one of the pillows and a....vibrator fell out (eeeewwwww!!!) and neither of us wanted to touch it but after putting the clean linens on, she got some tongs from the kitchen and put it back in the new pillowcase. Um, okay. Does that count???

ok ewww--did you clean the tongs?!!!!!???
this always has me thinking. i keep odd things in drawers they would not normally belong. like people are coming and i need to clean up fast and i find a pen , but am in the bathroom, so i just throw it in a drawer/cabinet.
since this situation happens often, i end up with odd things in odd places. 
i often wonder what people would think if they went through my drawers...

Hmmm ...
An elephants foot used as an umbrella stand and an aligators head used as a bottle opener. Sick and strange I suppose.
Livewire ... did you wash the kitchen tongs before putting them back?

I attended a party one time at a lawyer's house. Really fancy mansion with beautiful decorations everywhere. I remember thinking how rich these people were as I was using their golden toilet.
Turns out that he played the tuba while in college, and I'm not welcome at their house anymore.
