I'm afraid we need more than your word for that. What you have describe is meaningless without data, the people involved, the circumstances of the scratching.. this is all vague.

Certainly a claim of 4 witnesses observing scratches from an invisible source without any obvious causation is not only unusual but as far as I know actually unheard of.
So naturally we're skeptic, every mystery, ever examined, throughout history.. has always turned out to be... Not Magic.
Self-authenticating private evidence is useless, because it is indistinguishable from the illusion of it. ― Kel, Kelosophy Blog

If you’re going to watch tele, you should watch Scooby Doo. That show was so cool because every time there’s a church with a ghoul, or a ghost in a school. They looked beneath the mask and what was inside?
The f**king janitor or the dude who runs the waterslide. Throughout history every mystery. Ever solved has turned out to be. Not Magic.
