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.

:scared

    Yeah dude I was walking at night and suddenly I heard like some loud ominous droning sound, for lack of a better comparison, it kinda sounded like the dark souls gramophone at the dukes archives. First I thought it was a guy just watching a movie super loudly in some apartment, but it kept looping. I started thinking it was maybe a drone music concert, and I tried searching for like a music venue around because if someone was performing drone music, I wanted in, but at street level, all I managed to find was a bunch of closed restaurants. I sort of managed to locate the source of sound, which indeed looked like a rooftop with some sort of stage, but likely it wasn't publically accessible. I recorded the sound, maybe I'll upload it or something.

    edit: I uploaded it to streamable lol at the 0:23 mark there's a loud whistle, that's the sweet potato man (camote man in mexico) and you should disregard it but it's loud so careful if you have headphones or something.
