And I thought the huge ugly spider with its huge ugly web up near the spotlight at the 2nd floor roofline in the back was creepy
"Spiders blamed after broken siren played creepy nursery rhymes randomly at night to UK townsfolk"

Doom
Floating in on the wind, yet again, the sound of It’s Raining, It’s Pouring being sung by a child on the creepiest siren in Britain.
The Ipswich Star reports on what one local described as “something from a horror movie.” I’ve embedded a recording made by one alarmed local at the top of this post so you know what they were hearing.
A tormented mother living in Bramford Road with her two young children has been woken on an almost nightly basis by a tinny, distant rendition of ‘It’s Raining, It’s Pouring’. She said the threatening undertone of the song had left her frightened and questioning whether she was imagining things. After months of torment, she finally reported the unusual complaint to Ipswich Borough Council.
See, this was an automatic thing, and
“The sound is only supposed to act as a deterrent for opportunistic thieves that come onto our property, and it’s designed only to be heard by people on our private land. We are now aware of the problem – the motion sensors were being triggered by spiders crawling across the lenses of our cameras and it looks like we’ve had it turned up too loudly. We’ve spoken to the resident who brought it to our attention and adjusted it so this shouldn’t happen again.â€
Yikes.
