I’ve experienced this, or at least something that very closely fits its description, a couple times in the past, and it varies on a case-by-case basis. One time it was almost like the sound of glass breaking, I think one time might’ve been closer to a door slamming. Weird shit.

And, same deal as the other fella, hard to remember the specifics 'cause you’re sorta half-asleep when it happens.
