What’s the scariest ( non violent) sound you’ve heard that’s woken you up in the middle of the night?

Raccoons outside my window scratching at things.
also when group of coyotes get together by my pond

Ffs, sounds like screams

A long time ago, I worked the night shift at a local homeless shelter. I was allowed to sleep if all the residents had gone to bed, so I would usually lie down on the sofa in the child care room.

One night, I was just starting to relax, when one of the toys starting playing a tune. "London Bridges". All by itself.

I got up, found the toy, checked the switch, and it was switched to the "Off" position. Went back to the sofa to lie down. I no sooner laid down than that effing toy started playing London Bridges again. Same routine...up, checked the switch, OFF...laid down and then it happened AGAIN.

Was I spooked? NO. I was PISSED!!! That last time, I got up, grabbed the toy, marched it down the hall to the office and locked the damn thing in the office. I was FINALLY able to get my 3 hours of sleep!!! 🤣🤣🤣
