Bulk Delete Keeps Repopulating the Deleted Files

I decided to create a new space for some objects that were sitting in my personal space. I created the space, and manually recreated the Custom Objects with their properties. I then set about importing the existing files from an export of the old space. They imported correctly, but then I realized that I had imported the incorrect version and I had to do it over. So I attempted to delete the files from the space so I can redo the import with the correct version of the files I needed.
I have attempted to delete them several times, but they keep coming back. I have even done smaller batches, Delete Permanently from the Trash, and Reload, but while the count looks at 0 by the end a few minutes later the files have returned.
How can I get these ghosts to go away permanently so I can get back to work?

On a separate note, it would be nice if Custom Objects could be added to other Spaces so that we don't have to enter them manually each time.

I've given up and started a new space, but I didn't delete the messed up one in case you needed it for testing or more information...

Thanks for reporting. The Trash guide explains permanent deletion; could you share which platform and app version you’re using, and whether the objects return in the same space after reopening it?
