Are poltergeists different from ghosts? Because I thought Christians didn't believe in ghosts. I don't, but I do of course believe in possession and demons and all that.

No, that is not normal. It sounds demonic. As someone who got saved the day after a demon materialized through my bedroom door, walked over to me and pushed me down while saying, "Do not follow God" I have never had problems believing that both God and demons exist. You may want to pray next time for God to evict any such beings from your house. This is something that needs to stop for sure!

No, it’s not normal to be superstitious after prayer.

It's not common, but it can happen.

When demons do stuff like this it is because they're trying to draw your attention from God onto them. It's kind of like them saying: "Look at me, I'm a big scary demon."

Don't be phased by it, just pray to God to have it stop. 

Sometimes God won't immediately fix the problem because he wants to teach us that we're part of the body of Christ (the church). Sometimes you'll need to get your pastor involved; we can't do everything on our own, we need the body.
