Well, I can't say I've ever seen it happen, but I could see how it could happen in certain scenarios, especially if the LED has some weird driver in it.
Maybe the capacitors in the driver would be allowed to charge up in some designs before getting dissipated through the LED in a flash?
The simplest form of LED light (just a rectifier and a bunch of LEDs in series for a 120V diode drop), idk if you'd ever see any glow or flashes, since LEDs don't turn on until a certain voltage, and if you're getting like 50V on an open circuit that seems to me like you've accidentally built a transformer in your walls.
