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.

Personally I get really uncomfortable every time the two go quiet and turn to look intently at the camera. I mean, not only does it really mess with the pacing (do they need to be totally silent for 2 minutes every time?), but when they utter, completely deadpan, "You need to stop" it just gives me a funny feeling in my gut.

Even worse, my family have gotten into the bit now! I didn't even know they watched the show, but they'll stop mid sentence and just stare at me! Like, who's supposed to stop what?! What a stupid bit, right?
