I haven't had anything creepy happen to me personally that I can recall, but I do have something that did terrify me for a bit.
This was around a year ago but I was in the bathroom washing my hands after using the bathroom, this was very late at night, about 2:00am. That's when I heard some sort of noise that caught my interest. I was wearing noise-cancelling headphones so I was surprised that I heard this. I took them off and heard nothing afterwards, so I just chalked it up to my mind playing tricks and went back to my bedroom.
However, the sound did sit with me. It's one of those sounds that is engraved in your intuition. So I went to check the camera footage around the time that I heard the sound. I went back a couple of minutes and played back the footage, waiting to hear anything. After going through a few minutes, I was ready to give up on it, since it was just wind noise and distant traffic. That's when I heard this absolutely most long horrific blood curdling scream that I have ever heard in my life. It sounded like a woman and it genuinely made me freeze for a good few seconds.
I was in absolute shock and didn't know what to do about it. I sent it to the local police station and they said they'll investigate to see if anything came up around that time. I checked the news for a few days after in the local area and nothing about a murder or domestic violence incident came up. This area is usually pretty safe, so it was definitely a shock.
I actually went to go and hunt down the sound and it turns out that I sent it to a friend. I mentioned that the last part sounded like a tyre screeching but they believed it was too consistent to be a tyre screeching. A few others that I asked had the same opinion of that. One thing that I can think of that has a very consistent screeching noise from a long distance is probably a train slamming on its brakes? Although it came from a direction where there isn't any trains running at that time.

Why I think I won't, thank you.

Do you live anywhere rural? Apparently the sound of foxes mating sounds unnervingly like women screaming as if theyre getting axe murdered.No, not rural. But someone pointed out that someone may have seen a spider and in Australia, that's not particularly an unlikely occurrence.
@teflocarbon
😂 Definitely an appropriate reaction
Oh man that's creepy. Maybe someone just saw a spider or something? It sucks that our minds always go straight to the worst possible reality, like one in which it was the result of a murder haha.
It’s in Australia so it’s quite possible that someone found a spider. I’m pretty sure a murder would’ve appeared in the news around here so that’s mystery solved. I hope.
Any owls around? Some make seriously weird screeches.
There are a few owls around but I know the sounds that the Australian ones make at least and I hear them rather regularly, it didn't sound anything like this.
I heard goats can sound like very similar to human screams
