I just went out to buy a sweet potato for dinner, and the store I elected to go to is about a 3.5 block walk from where I live, in a major US city. It's dark out now (just got back), and as I was walking home with Reginald (the potato, it was a big one so I named it), I crossed an intersection that was the midway point in my return walk.

Out of nowhere, I heard about 30 seconds of VERY clear, in tempo, church bells ringing, coming from down the street on my left side.

I've lived here 4 years now and there are no churches that way.

    Wind, probably. Wind makes some seriously spooky noises on the chain link fence at my workplace. Also something around here, I'm not sure what, sounds a lot like a cat yowling when the wind picks up hard enough.

      The wind was still that night, for what it's worth. The cemetery was at the end of a road right next to a house, and I kind of think the occupants of the house might have set up some kind of prank thing.

      I've also never gone back, and this happened like 20-22 years ago. My memory is probably completely unreliable.
