light bulb blinking after power is turned off

I have this curly 23 W light bulb in the kitchen. After I turn the switch off, this bulb blinks about every two seconds for eight times before going off while the other three bulbs, all LED, also controlled by the same switch, behave normally. Is this bulb haunted?

I'm in the process of replacing them. Now its over 2/3 LED. That includes the 48-inch tubes, and refrigerator/freezer/microwave.

I really don't like that yellow "soft white" either. It was necessary when we could only have incandescent (real white incandescent bulbs exist, but are less efficient and don't last as long), but that is no longer necessary. Also, real white looks brighter, since eyes are adapted to sunlight.
