Nothing "supernatural", but I'm currently feeling rather unlucky about my various neighbours and their relationship to... noise.
In town, I've had to deal with the A/C unit from Hell, and now the bloke who does the dishes for the plonkers downstairs apparently needs to listen to Elton John and Celine Dion as he works (from midnight to 1:30AM - when it's not until 2AM)... and the din travels through the chimneys (old building, there are several in each flat) and along the water conduits.
Basically, I'll probably have to phone them in order to tell them to stop their music (they must think they're alone on earth or the village idiot's doing the dishes because there's no way they don't know it's way too loud).
Swell!
I escaped to the country for Easter. To a place where there's nothing.
New neighbours across the garden, and apparently, they're having a party. Inside. And I can hear them.
That's going to be entertaining in the summer if my relatives have to complain about some din.
I've had parties with friends, but the music was never loud, and I turned it off before 10 PM, and, cherry on the icing on that cake, none of us were ever screeching like demented banshees... I sometimes think that I'm wired differently - or something.
I'm waiting for my cat to head home (we prefer having the cats inside at night; there are sociopaths around), and I could be listening to a lovely nightingale, but I cannot as the silly bunnies are louder than that poor bird.
That feels like a curse. A bit.

After 7 years the house next door sold (we are a semis), the first 5 or so years the children of the lady who died used it as a peaceful holiday home, so occasionally we had folk but not loud or often (3 weeks a year at most) it sold in November to a young lass late 20's who has ripped it apart and taken chimneys out and changed kitchen rooms etc! She is a nice lass and I doubt she will party etc, has plans to turn tiny back garden into a conservatory etc, but like me she works days so comes over evenings, and weekends, has loads of family helping (who are the local family for us, so shes one of the gunns of gerston, even when she never has been a gunn and he mum hasn't in over 30 years! so no complaints would work if I wanted to make them, she has been good and never goes past 10pm but we are so used to no one in the house!
Ouch!!! I hope she'll be super quiet once she's done working on the house.
It's awful that you wouldn't be heard if you had reasons to complain; that's not normal. Local or not, quiet's precious!!!
I'll keep everything crossed that she discovers Zen and turns into a Buddhist nun... or something. *hugs*
