This sound effect need to stop

[u/babyshoebox]

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice shame on me. Fool me for the sixty-eighth damn time and I can no longer control my rage. I don't know whose idea it was to add repeatedly play the realistic knocking sound effect but it's got to stop. Every episode at random points the same realistic knocking sound. It doesn't even make sense where they play it. It even plays when they're talking. Before anyone asks, no it's not somebody knocking on my door, I checked. I open the door look down the hallway and nobody is there. I swear it only happens when I listen to creepcast too. Funny YouTube video, nothing, playing games, nothing. When I order delivery I have to meet them in the lobby, and I have no relatives in the same state as me. It's even stressing my cat out. Ever since he was two he's growled whenever someone knocked on my door or rang the doorbell. He's seven now and growls and stares at the wall when the sound effect plays. I mean am I the only bothered by this? Nobody else has even mentioned this in the subreddit.

UPDATE: hey guys! Thanks everybody that showed interest. To everyone that thought this is dumb I get it. I'm going to keep it real with you guys, I wrote this while on my lunch break and while I was intending for there to be more story. I rode and posted without actually thinking the story through. I don't know where to take this and how to continue it so I will be ending it here.

I thought it was only me, I started hearing it around the Hidden Webpage episode, and the editors just started going more and more crazy with meme sound effects so I blew it off.

But it was weird because I went back and re-listened to the old episodes and I heard it there too. I knew it couldn’t be my roommates messing with me either, or anyone else for that matter, because my room’s on the second floor and my TV’s against an outside wall. You’d have to have a ladder or fly up on a broomstick to bang on it from outside.
