(48,062 posts)I had one unsettling experience.
My father and I had a contentious relationship. OK, we probably hated each other. I even sent the funeral home a red-and-white striped shirt with plaid pants to dress him to send him to the crematorium.
He died 10 years ago in April. About a month later at my home, I left the front door opened all the way to get my cell phone from my car, not even 50 feet away from there. It's a heavy wooden door, maybe 100+ years old. Probably weighs over 100 pounds. And the damned thing not only shut as I reached the car, it effin' slammed shut. And the door was in lock mode. And I had left my housekeys upstairs. And I was locked out.
I retrieved my phone and called the locksmith, who let me in again for $125.
As there was no wind, no breeze, no reason for the door to slam shut (and it has never done that since then), I can only guess it was my father, being vindictive.
