The audio commences with the eerily distinctive sound of a gate creaking. It's a sound that seems to echo through the silence of a house, adding an unsettling atmosphere. The creaking is prolonged, not a brief momentary sound but rather a drawn-out groan of old hinges being disturbed. It's a sound that tells a story of age, of time passing, and of things that may have been forgotten. The house, in response, seems to almost hold its breath, the usual background noise seeming to fade in the face of this ominous, eerie creaking. The gate continues to creak, each groan and rasp echoing through the silent house, leaving behind an impression of an unsettling, almost haunting atmosphere.
