We just moved to another house in another state. The house is newer (2003) so its not like it has a lot of history to it. The problem I am having is that while my son is sleeping, his drawers are opening and the items in the first three drawers are tossed to the floor. It is freaking out my almost 13 year old son. ( it only happened a few times not every night) He plays football and has his cat living in his room. For the last couple of days, there has been a strong..I mean STRONG scent of cotton candy. There should be no way I could not have smelled the "over loaded litter box" (which I made him clean out) or the sweaty football attire. We have looked throughout his room and can't find where the scent is coming from. Last night as the night progressed I brought my husband in, it started to smell like the cotton candy was burning then the scent is completely gone by today.

When we first moved into the house, I noticed that my bedroom door closed on its own. I just chaulked it up to a breeze. (though the windows are closed) But sometimes as I watch it, it is strange how it does closes. Sometimes it almost closes, then as if someone pushes it all the way closed. Like I said in the beginning, it is a newer house. Perhaps there is a logical explanation to all of this.

All of the ideas you guys have mentioned could be plausible.

I have left the drawers slightly ajar to see if the cat would take advantage and climb in. If she did, she left everything as it was.

Currently everything is quiet. I like quiet.

If something or someone was here they have either moved on or decided to become quiet. If my cat did take the stuff out of the drawers, she is obviously bored with that game. If the activity is telekinetic, whatever was causing this episode has diminished.

I can't tell you how thankful I am to have you here and give me advice. Thanks again everyone!!!

Not to rain on your parade but it might just be a slow time right now. My sister's house has spells where nothing happens and then after a bit it picks right back up. Usually for her it's winter time when it's the most active. Just keep an eye out and consider keeping a journal to see if there is a pattern.

Well that's just peachy. Not what I want to hear. I hope whatever happened isn't going to happen again. Mostly because if it is paranormal, I don't think I know enough to deal with whatever it is.

Keep us informed.

Absolutely!!

Tanner used to sleep walk and get night terrors when he was little. It could be pretty disconcerting at times. So glad he grew out of it.

Re: smudging. Don't do it if you are wearing a wool sweater. You'll walk around smelling like you've been smoking pot the rest of the day.

I never knew my son to sleep walk. Though there were 2 times when I woke him up to go potty, one time he ended up peeing in the shower stall, and the other in the litterbox. Looking back at those incidents, I can laugh. But at the time, I was not amused.

To update:

The door still has a mind of its own. Stops when you tell it to. My son hasn't had anymore eps with his clothes. Though an odd thing happened the other night. We had watched the fourth kind. My kids asked me about my paranormal experiences. I mentioned the time when I was very young, living at home with my parents. I told my family I felt there was strange things happening in our home. My parents and sister told me I was full of it. We all went into our separate rooms right after that discussion. When our doors closed, the fire alarm went off for that split second. I am not surprised. My Mom was into Targot cards and physics

My kids proceeded to tell me about their experiences in our current house. As we were discussing them, the fire alarm started to beep at random. Scared my kids and rattled me pretty well. They ended up sleeping with me in bed, and it stopped when my hubby came home from work (He works nights) We have seen shadows. The thing that concerns me is how my German Shepherd acts when we get home if we have been away for the day. He looks scared to death. His ears are down and his eyes are like saucers. The other day it looked like he had cornered something in the corner, but there was nothing there. Or he will just stare at the wall.

None of us smoke, but we have all smelled cigarette smoke randomly through out the house, and there are times when I go to bed and my pillow smells like cigarette smoke. Yuk!

I do not think it is evil. I have found my recorder, and will take some EVPs in my house while we are gone. Invite whom ever is listening to speak into the recorder.

I will ofcourse tell you if I find something. And even try to get it posted for your opinions. If it is fruitful, I will try to set up the video recorder. Though I am hopeful, this is just over imaginations, and nothing will occur. It is one thing to ghost hunt in another persons place of residence, it is another to live with the spirits.
