This is for real. PLEASE help. I am so scared.?

Question

I'm scared. PLEASE help. This one's actually serious.?

OK. I wasn't there at the incident, though this is how my dad (an atheist who HARDLY believes in ANYTHING supernatural) describes it. My mom had gone to sleep and my dad was working at the computer. Suddenly, he hear the doorknob sqeauking the bedroom's door opens. He though my mom was going to come out; however, after 20 seconds nobody appeared, so he ran to the room. My mom was FAST asleep and she had ABSOLUTELY no idea what my dad was talking about. My sister was sleeping in the bedroom beside my parents' bedroom and when they asked her if she woke up the night in advance, she said no. Moreover, my dad would have seen it if my sister actually woke up and went to my mother. She would have been IN the room.

Afterwards, my dad searches the ENTIRE apartment. Our main entrance's lock is VERY strong. It was locked at that moment and it's impossible to open it from outside. Nobody was in the apartment beside the people I mentioned.

Answer 1

Sounds like a pressure change opened the door.  It happened all the time in my old place.  There doesn't have to be a wind inside - leaving the window open is usually enough.

Answer 2

im sure there is an explanation, i hear things all the time. but if it were a ghost, it obviously isnt there to hurt anybody, or it would have already, dont worry, just welcome it there.

Answer 3

dude the same thing happens to my front door and its heavy wood and steel its just a friendly spirit i would just let it b

Answer 4

The first thing you need to do is calm down. There is very little , if any chance that anything can hurt you, assuming it is paranormal.

Remember ALL it did was OPEN the door! Sometimes the heating and cooling of a house can cause expansion( and contraction ) of wood, making doors open by themselves. I swore , at one time my house was haunted, but it wasn't. It was simply the contraction of wood making doors open by themselves.

Remain calm, research the phenomenon. The more you know the better you can rationalize things. Whatever it is, being nervous and jumpy about it is not terribly productive.

Answer 5

DON'T GET INVOLVED. If anybody gets involved with the spiritual world VERY BAD THINGS CAN HAPPEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 6

So what is your question?  Sometimes we hear things we can't explain. There's nothing to be scared about. Noises won't hurt you.

Answer 7

Don't listen to the other person saying it was a 'ghost' trying to talk to you. Surely there is a logical explanation like change in air pressure, and there is no point getting freaked out.

Answer 8

Try video taping the door and any other area that activity is happening.  Just for fun, to see what you can see.  You can also record sounds with any recorder.  But don't be afraid.  I don't think that there is anything there that can hurt you.

Answer 9

Keep an eye on it, see if it occurs again, but I really don't think there's a need to panic. If it is a spirit, they can't hurt you anyway.

Answer 10

If you are this frightened by a door k**b squeaking and a door opening.You need to get a grip.Things like that happen all the time.Sorry I can't be more sympathetic but,really calm down.

Answer 11

Welcome to my world and so many others on here. This is how we recruit believers, through  first hand experience. lol.

Do not be afraid, it did not harm you, it was only trying to get your attention. If you can . ask for its name. You are in control and can ask this spirit to stand back. It may have sensed that you were more open to receiving, as you said in your question were reading up on some spiritual stuff. Ask for its name, as it may be your guide, just letting you know that it is around, or it may be a lost soul, or could be a relative. Ask and you shall receive. The first thought is the correct thought, the second is your mind trying to justify the information you receive. Hope this  helps.

Answer 12

If what ever it is, had any plans to harm anyone in your family it would have been done already. Next time it happens say hi..see what happens then.

Answer 13

I have to agree, no harm there.

If you can get an tape recorder & try recording it.  Ask 3 questions, who are you, why are you here & what do you want.

Give ample time between questions.

Trying to make some type of communication is all that is being done.  If no one was physically bothered, then no harm done.

Try the tape recorder & you may get some answers.

Answer 14

As you might see by reading one of my recent answers to a young lady who asked "Do you believe in ghosts?"  yes, I do believe in them.  Having admitted that, I also believe that many sounds can be "perceived" to be one thing when they are really caused by something very "benign" or harmless, such as a mouse emitting a sound which sounds like the door k**b.  

Also, if you live in a city or near a train or highway, some times the train or a heavy vehicle like an 18 wheeler will cause the foundation to shift just a tiny tiny fraction of a centimetre, so that the door will come ajar or shift, thus producing the squeak or shift in metal to metal or even wood to metal.

One thing, I caution you about reading Spiritism when you have not finished all of your Foundations, that is to say, all of the Torah, or all of the Gospels if you are Christian, or gone throught madrassa if you are Moslem.  

Since you are spooked already, try reading The Tao.

Answer 15

a house blessing. ..and if It is still there but does not hurt anyone then just ignore it but if IT started to physically attack anyone of you then , ,,move to another place rather than stay and put not only your mom but your whole family in danger. ..

Answer 16

1st rule in my book.

Never take anyone Else's experience as absolute truth. It is only truth to them.

I know he is your Dad but that does not make him infallible. He can be telling the truth but he may have made a simple error that ballooned into a dramatic scene.

Good luck

Answer 17

What can I say, these thing really happen.  I have never heard any real story of anyone being hurt by a ghost.  They move things, even throw things around some times. But all the stuff you see on TV and in the movies is just made up stuff to scare people.  If your really worried about it have some one over to do a cleansing.  The question I would ask you is, has someone in your family passed away lately?  It could be someone who just wants to watch over you, a grandmother or a uncle or aunt.
