A US college student claims his campus dorm room is haunted after filming a series of paranormal events centered around his closet.

The man posted two videos to YouTube of his closet door seemingly opening and closing on its own.

Loud knocking sounds can also be heard coming from inside the small wooden wardrobe.

The student, known as Paddy, said when the sounds first started that he assumed it was coming from the hallway.

"I assumed it was neighbours f***ing with us," he wrote on a blog after posting the video last month.







When he realised the strange events were coming from inside the room, he decided to set up a camera to record the bizarre movements and discovered that the door would shake and swing open as if an invisible force were pulling it.

Paddy said the dorm, number 169, is haunted after another student committed suicide in the room last year.

Video shows the door vibrating violently before opening slightly and closing again.

Another angle shows the closet door opening widely on its own.

A brave Paddy approaches the closet, closes the door and points a finger at it saying, "stay!".

"At this point I'm so used to it that I don't care that much anymore," he wrote on the blog.

The video has captured the attention on many skeptics, who claim the video is a fake.

"It's f***king airflow get over it," one man said.
