TAP DANCING SPIRIT
When my mother was dying my brother and I took turns watching over her. It was late at night as I sat beside her and my brother slept on the mat. My mother began to make loud noises and her mouth started to open more and more. The noises started getting louder and louder.
To help quiet her down and let my exhausted brother sleep I decided to gently close my mother’s mouth by tying a white scarf under her chin and round her head. It did the trick and she slept soundly. The room was silent.
As I sat besides her holding her hand the silence was shattered as the windows flew open. I heard the patter of feet run across the floor and under the bed. The sound of footsteps became that of steel capped dancing shoes rhythmically marching around the room.
The noise and clatter awoke my brother who was also startled to see my mother asleep with the white scarf tied in a bow around her head. The French windows burst open and the heavy curtains blew in the wind.
My mother died the next night. What do you think was going on that evening?

It must have been quite a shock for your brother to awake as he did. Although the events you describe sound pretty frightening I think they could all be explained by the wind bursting through the window. Perhaps something light and metallic, like a curtain ring, bounced around the floor. But there again, if I'd been there, I may have thought quite differently..
