Basically, my understanding of the nine-night says that the spirit roams the earth restless at night for a week and a day (8 nights). It is said that on the 9th night, the spirit returns home to the familiar. This means that to discourage the spirit from taking up abode in the residence (aka haunting), you gather on the ninth night. You sing, make noise (beat pots and pans) to dispel and disquiet the spirit from an easy return. You move furniture and flip the mattress to disorient the spirit from the familiar surroundings. You pour libations on the ground to satisfy those spirits that may have accompanied the returning spirits.

Put together, these help the spirit to &quot;move on&quot;.
