Last 31st evening after dinner , I was at the bedroom watching TV and at the same time myLotting in bed . Hubby was at the receiving room outside the room on his desktop , surfing the net . Suddenly , I saw the door open slowly . After it was wide open , it stopped . Then after about a minute , it slowly closed again . Was it strange ? Yes . Was it scary? No . In my mind , I thought that it could be one of the souls of my dearly departed because All Souls day was just two days away at that time . I wasn’t scared , because I shall be praying for them all , which I actually did . When hubby came into the room i told him about it . He won't believe me but i know he is scared . Have you too got a scary or stranger experience like this already ? Would you be scared if you were in my place at that time ?

I beg to differ,because I am an atheist.I reckon it had to do with the air stream in both side of the door.

But there is no wind nor air because all the windows are closed since everyone is already in their bedrooms already.

@louievill I didn't ever think about that because all windows are already closed since everyone is in their bedrooms already except for hubby outside in the dining's receiving room . What i find it strange is that it closed slowly .

Air streams is a very logical explanation, you are very wise my friend.

I've had three strange experiences, all different, but I knew it was my mother checking to make sure I was alright. She is in Heaven.

Indeed when we have a very close dearly departed , strange things happen and we connect it to them . They become our angels .

what do you do when that happens, @diannen? do you talk to them (in your mind) or say a prayer?

I had these old painted wooden cupboard doors with spring loaded catches to hold them closed. If not completely closed tight the springs would send the door open on their own. The question was when and why?

@Bluedoll No . The windows of the house are all closed already since everyone is in their bedrooms already . I do agree that what is so strange is that the door slowly closed by itself . But i am glad , i wasn't scared .

@SIMPLYD did you examine the door? Buildings move. They change shape from being in the cooler nights to going into the hot noon sun. My old building makes noises like trees in the wind. It wasn't that they opened. Closing by themselves was rather disturbing.

Could it be the wind? Or maybe just like you said, someone who needs your prayers. For me I had dreams seeing them; and I know they were asking for prayers.

There was no wind at all . All the doors and windows are already closed since everyone is in their rooms already , preparing to sleep . Yes, i can't help connecting it to that since it's All Souls Day after a day when that happened . And your your dreams of seeing them , that can indeed be a reminder for prayers .

That could be also . But i don't have that , or should i say i haven't ever used that . SO , you are a fan of David Copperfield . I like watching him too , although when he levitates on those metal fences , i find it scary , i would stop watching .

No, I would not be scared and this happened last week, when we felt the quake that happened in Italy. The door opened slowly and then it closed. It also happened in the past.

But what about the quake , didn't it scare you ? I wasn't afraid of that too as long as i don't see a ghost or a white lady . Because if i do , i would scream at the top of my lungs and go out of the room to my hubby .

Maybe because you are fond of watching horror movies , that's why . I avoid watching horror movies because they would really scare me and haunt me in my dreams .

My experience of something paranormal-ish didn't exactly happen close to All Souls Day, nevertheless it still scared me. It was night and I am all alone in the house, I was in my room watching some awesome series in my laptop, the lights are turned on, and I was skeptical of paranormal activities before and even now! But, as the movie transitions and there is a five second delay in transition (black screen), I saw some white person-figured apparition pass by my back. It sent a chill down my spine as it looks so surreal, and I ran to my bed and slept without even turning off my laptop and the lights. That was one moment in my life I wish I did something MANLY! But cowardice prevailed that time.

I experienced it in our old residence, but I was never got scared about it.. I just think that it might be a wind that causes the door to open slowly o even close it in loud bang.

Good if it closes in a loud bang because it is understandable that there's wind . However , this one opened slowly , stopped for a few second , then slowly closed again without a bang .

@SIMPLYD but what makes you think that it might be some souls roaming around,is it because of Nov. 1?

I think I have to feel the same experience to tell about my opinion. . Perhaps the door may close and open due to wind I am not sure. Anyway, Ghost, a topic, never scares me. In fact I had no such experience and that may be the reason.

There was no wind , because the windows and doors were all closed since everyone is already in their rooms probably sleeping or watching TV too .

Yes, i know . It was actually explained by @louievill . I just can't help thinking about souls because it was just a day away from All Souls Day from that time it happened.
