Strange things be happenin' in my dash - noises, not much air, then... 850 1996

Okay, I'm stumped.

The Auto settings aren't doing what I expect. The blower runs, the AC cools, but there are sounds of a damper or flap that seems to be blocking the flow of most air. If I turn the fan up to high, I get a hollow roaring but only a triccle of air out the vents. Then...

If I flip the Recirc switch so the light lights up, the air comes blasting out, just as it should. Flip the Recirc switch back, and the internal flap or whatever slowly closes and the air goes away. Takes about 10 seconds.

Beats me. Any ideas what's going on? Do I need an exorcist?
