The summer I was 17yo I used to take naps in my dad's room in the afternoons because he had an a/c unit so it was cooler than mine. A few times, at least twice I can recall now nearly 20yrs later, I was woke up when the bed started shaking. I would hear footsteps running from the closet, then feel someone or something ramming into the bed, & then running back to the closet. I could feel the bed push in where it hit & the bed would shake. It would do this repeatedly while I hid my face & closed my eyes tight till I went back to sleep.
My dad doesn't believe in any of that stuff & says nothing has ever happened to him. Nothing has happened since, but I still don't like to go into his room, & if I do I make sure the light is on & the door is open (though, it was broad daylight when it happened, so...). I also know the family who lived here previously, & I haven't talked to them about it, but they are relatives & I have never heard anything from them about any events here. It never felt really frightening or evil, just more like a trickster than anything. I do think it meant to scare me, but just in a playful way.
Seems like a poltergeist to me. Just wanted to put that out there & see what others think.
