Curious about Paganism and Witchcraft, i have some ?s?

I am a Christian but my cousin will be having a Wiccan Wedding next june that I am in, I am very open minded and just want to know the basics of the beliefs.

How does a person know if there a witch, what do they do different from normal people. Does it have anything to do with Druid beliefs. Any information would be greatly appreciated. I am in no way knocking your beliefs I just want to expand my horizons and be respectful of my cousins upcoming wedding THANKS

Has anyone heard a weird tapping noice? (paranormal)?

I have always had weird experiences with the paranormal, at different places where i have lived, and i have lived in this appartment where iám at now for about 4 months and nothing strange happened until last night, i heard a tapping sound coming from my closet at night, the light was on and my closet is the opened style no doors, at first it was a slow tap.... tap.....tap.....tap but it started to speed up and went tap..tap..tap..tap until it was a mind numbing speed where the tapping was way too fast to do with a hand, it turned into a freakish loud finger roll like you can do on your desk, but it was way too fast for a person to do it, does anyone make any sence of this? and if so has anyone had a similar experience? or have any ideas why this happened? thanks.
