+1 yCars going by a few blocks away. A train whistle far off in the distance. Rain hitting the roof, sometimes. An occasional tree twig hitting the roof.
At MY house, cars going up and down the ramp to the bypass half a block away, cars driving ON the bypass 4 blocks away, cars going past the house, crickets, the train going by 2 blocks away. Sometimes, the sound of seagulls flying around the bridge over the river 4 blocks away, bunnies farting and playing loud music. I REALLY miss my house! :-(
Before I go to bed, I put music on, usually something electronic: Tangerine Dream, solar Quest, Enya, Jean-Michel Jarre, or something like The Moody Blues. Sometimes, one or more of those Syntonic Research albums from the early `70's. WOW!! This is really cool that these are here!! I'm gonna have to try to collect all of them!! I have a few of the albums but they're not easy to find! https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=syntonic+research+environments

This one first time I spent the night at a girls house, well... right before I fell alsleep or right after I did, I heard a train go by. It scared me so bad! I knew how far the train track was by her house, but, see when the train went by, it was extremely loud and shook her bedroom a little bit.. like the frames on the wall shaking. I thought that train would crash into her house. I couldn't stand it after trying it out two more nights. So I stopped sleeping over

I like trains... just not before sleep and during sleep

My aunt's house was half a block from the train tracks, her entire house shook every time a train went by. We were 2 blocks away so, we didn't get much of the shaking but we DID get the noise. You just get used to it.

her train track was pratictly in her back yard area... very close... she said i will get used to it, it was to bothersome
- +1 y
Same here. There was her house, enough room in her side yard for another house the same size, a gas station on the other side of her fence, the main road next to the gas station and about 6 or 8 sets of train tracks on the other side of the main road. I could stand at her fence, throw a rock and hit the train.

+1 yI live with the ocean in front of me and a forest behind me, so there are all kinds of noises. Usually the ocean is quiet at night but you’ll occasionally hear seabirds. There’s usually a good breeze coming from that direction too, so I’ll hear the leaves of the trees rustling. Cars occasionally pass by as well, but fairly infrequently at night. And on foggy nights, I can hear the foghorn from a nearby lighthouse.
I mostly hear noises from the woods at night: owls hooting, raccoons chittering, and between midnight and 2 AM you’ll often hear a pack of coyotes going apeshit, probably over a kill. I hear a lot of crunching branches from animals walking around out there, probably deer. The deer will kind of bark or bleat or whatever, occasionally. And I think the foxes are the ones who have a loud scream, although I haven’t heard them lately.

Update: just heard footsteps in the gravel turnaround in the driveway, and now I’m hearing a deer bark, so the woods are alive as usual tonight

do you ever have dreams of these noises?
- +1 y
makes me wonder what animal was in your drive way
- +1 y
I think it was either the same deer or one of the likely group of deer that was making the noise shortly after. The footsteps were slow and sounded heavier. Plus I heard a sneeze/snort, and it just sounded like something that would come from a deer. Another time, I think either a coyote or a fox stopped on the lawn underneath the window, because I heard the quicker cadence of footsteps, and then the same sound as when a dog scratches itself behind the ear with it’s hind paws, haha.

I almost never remember my dreams, probably less than once a year, so I can’t really say if I hear the noises in my sleep. My eyes close, then they open 7-8 hours later and it’s daytime. That’s about it for me, haha.

Do you have any neighbors, or close by you? Am also wondering why the deer (s) if that was a deer that came up in your driveway.. it's like they're curious about something
- +1 y
I do have neighbors, but we all share the same woods behind us. In fact, my entire street is probably three miles long, and on one side, there’s the beginning to miles and miles of forest. There must be ten square miles back there, at least. Then you get interrupted by a main route, and on the other side is even more wilderness. So we’ll see a bunch of animals, and then not see any for a stretch of time, of a particular animal, anyway, as I’d imagine they just roam the woods and occasionally reside in my area for a few days. So I’d think everyone gets them in their yards at times, but our backyard seems to be bordering on a flat area of the woods, whereas the rest is often hilly. It seems like a place that would seem like an easy exit door from the woods into the suburban neighborhood. We had an apple tree until it was blown over in a storm last fall, and the deer would always come and clean up the fallen apples around September and October. But anyway, I think there’s just something about the landscape on our property that’s an easy way out of the woods, and the embankment on side of our driveway on the edge of the property is basically a ramp for the deer and turkeys and whatever else to walk down for access to the front yard. I don’t know if there’s a bush they like to nibble on or what. Sometimes I’ve come home late at night, and I’ll almost hit a deer when I get up the driveway (steep slope around a bend), and the deer is boxed in between the front of my car and the stone wall that makes an ‘L’ shape around one corner (plus the driveway is dug out, it’s at basement level of the house, so the deer can’t go up the steep stairs to the back deck either. Usually it’ll frantically prance around and then run at but around the car and back up the embankment, lmao. But yeah, gotta be something they like to forage off of out front. The back yard is right there for them, but they aren’t drawn to that as much.

that was a very nice read and very interesting. ;)

If that were my home, It would always be on my mind as to why they are coming up to my home. a mystery for sure, which would make me investigate, to try to see if it could be this or that.

Haha, yeah, sometimes I think about getting one of those cameras that will record animals that come through overnight. Probably would capture some cool stuff👍

But the worst is the guys who squawk, yelling out random profanities, telling some virtual person to "Fuck offfff!" and various other argumentative retorts. Happens about every other night. The men have gone haywire here.

Then we hear mice and rats running around outside trying to get in

ok, hearing wolves would scare me, coyotes doesn't.
I was living in a house back in 2003, one day when it first started... I awoke in the middle of the night, that sounded like huge fat elephants running above my ceiling. I awoke my guy who I was with at that time, I said what is that? Found out it was mice, so many. It was so annoying! It wasn't a noise I could just tune out. - +1 y
does that noise bother you, the coyotes, wolves, and mice and rats?
