Do you mean strange elements like the witches? Or Banquo's ghost? Or the dagger floating in the air? Well, you could say that the dagger and Banquo's ghost were all in Macbeth's mind, because he is the only one who sees them. Or possibly not. Sometimes the play is staged where the audience can see these things, sometimes not. The witches are different, since they are also seen by Banquo. They must have some reality, unless Banquo and Macbeth are having a shared hallucination. Although the second time Macbeth visits them, they are seen by nobody else, even when one would expect it, so maybe that was also in Macbeth's mind. Or not.
These are all questions which must be answered by the director of each particular production of the play.

In Act 3 Scene 1 Macbeth says: "We hear our bloody cousins are bestow'd In England and in Ireland, not confessing Their cruel parricide, filling their hearers With strange invention" Presumably, Duncan's sons are suggesting that Macbeth killed Duncan, not them.
Macbeth caused it, Lady Macbeth proposed it, the stewards were killed for it, and the king's sons took the blame for it.
In Macbeth, one strange invention is Lady Macbeth's plan to drug the guards and frame them for King Duncan's murder. Another unusual invention is the witches' prophecies that drive Macbeth's actions and decisions throughout the play. These inventions add intrigue and supernatural elements to the story.

Lady Macbeth tells the guests that Macbeth has had similar "fits" since his youth, suggesting it is nothing out of the ordinary for him. She urges them to ignore his behavior and carry on with the feast as planned.

Lady Macbeth effects Macbeth's actions by pushing him towards the murder. Initially, Macbeth was unsure of what he wanted to do. He stated that if he was meant to become king, it would happen naturally. Lady Macbeth caused him to change his mind and planned the murder of King Duncan.
The supernatural elements in Macbeth include the appearance of witches who prophesize the future, the supernatural events surrounding King Duncan's murder such as the unnatural darkness and the owl's screech, and the ghost of Banquo haunting Macbeth during a banquet. These elements contribute to the overall atmosphere of mystery and dark forces at play in the play.
Lady Macbeth exhibits the strange behaviors of sleepwalking and obsessively trying to wash imaginary bloodstains from her hands. These behaviors are manifestations of her guilt and inner turmoil over the murders she and her husband have committed.
