Got called out for a 'haunted' fridge that was just a loose wire behind the ice maker panel. The homeowner swore it was singing 'Happy Birthday' at 3 AM.

Reminds me of my buddy's ghostly garage door opener.

How did a ghostly garage door opener change your mind?

Oh man, that's the worst. Those little unexplained things can really get under your skin. I mean, you just have to live with the weirdness sometimes.

@juliarodriguez that garage door opener thing keeps coming back to me. The wire behind the ice maker thing is actually pretty common with certain fridge models from the late 2000s. Those ribbon cables can shift when the compressor kicks on, especially if the fridge isn't perfectly level. It makes this weird humming that changes pitch as the fridge cycles. Pretty sure the sound engineers who designed those panels never tested for 3 AM temperature swings. People hear a pattern and their brain fills in the lyrics.
