Last winter there was a sound at 3 AM. It was a rat gnawing on a pipe in the crawl space. An alpha female found a way in and invited her friends. I got the friends and found the entrance but it took me weeks to finally get her. They say the alpha females are the smartest (for many species including our own).

My fridge makes all kinds of funny pops and squeaks. It is not old and has always done it. When the wind blows the lids on the vents (3) always open and close and the sound is transmitted through the vent pipes (kitchen and 2 baths). There is always the wood working during wind and inclemetic weather. Otherwise it is quiet.

In the last 15 years or so we have had invasions of Asian House Geckos, they are really quite cute, but vocal. We also have a small flock of eastern curlews which run down my street at night and sound like banshees/

Termites?

Had some REALLY batshit crazy sounds around father's day 2017.
Haven't heard them since... ex moved out same weekend... pretty strange huh!? Lol

I've been woken up by raccoons in the ceiling a couple times in the past month. One actually fell through the drywall a couple weeks ago. Pretty sure I've gotten rid of them now, but imagine waking up to the sound of raccoons fighting right above your head.

When I was younger I would get scared by sounds when alone, but I slowly realized that most of those noises are just the house settling, or sometimes a mouse or other pest. Used to hear cabinets open and close in the middle of the night in my cousin's old house. Woke up just in time one night to see a RAT open a cabinet door and jump inside, and it wasn't a nasty house or anything, just surrounded by fields.

Some nights we hear Owls hooting can sound very spooky...

I have awfully crazy sounds in my house, crazy and terrifying. I have been married for 20 years. They sound like.....I love you husband.....completely unsettling.......

I don't believe in ghosts and never have. However, I don't mind admitting that when I used to live in an old cottage and, one night when I was alone, I heard what sounded exactly like very heavy footsteps stomping across the upstairs floor above my head, I got out of there pretty quickly!

I get lots of crazy sounds in my house, most of them come from mundane sources like air vent covers flapping around etc. but I lived in a house in a pretty remote part of northern England several years ago and that place was terrifying!

It was built in the 1700s and was clad in flagstone at some point later, so it was very imposing looking and had a reputation in the nearby village as being haunted. We would hear things in the attic all the time, creaks and thuds and the like. There were also knocking sounds in the walls, especially during the day, and squeaking that sounded like rusty door hinges on another floor (no matter which floor you were on).

We could trace it all to mundane sources like the huge oak beams in the roof, and expanding hot water pipes etc. but I hated that place, I always felt on edge there- the noises were just so frequent and intrusive.

just make sure if you hear a strange sound and its totally dark down there to check it out right away. especially if there is high pitched screechy violins in the background

I have an 11 year old daughter. Crazy sounds are the norm.

No. All the crazy sounds are grown and gone.

Only when I am home...
