There's an emergency at the Facility down the road, and everyone in a six-mile radius is very likely fucked.

What is the sound that announces your fate?

  • oooooOOOOOOOIPP, oooooOOOOOOOOIPP

  • WAAAARK ..... WAAAARK ..... WAAAARK

  • dyOOT! ... dyOOT! ... dyOOT!

  • Something else? (please spell)

Holy shit, is Chicago silent hill!?

[–] MaggiWuerze@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago

Really should make a horror game based on that

[–] ndguardian@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

No. It’s the home of SirenHead.

It does kind of sound like a police car that drove into a duckpond and is sadly shorting out...

Terrifying? Maybe. Creepy AF? Absolutely.

I didn't realize that was Chicago's tornado siren, but it's 100% the one that popped into my head. It just sounds viscerally wrong.

[–] foggy@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Literally as I read the title "if Chicago tornado warning sirens ain't the top post..."

[–] Ejh3k@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

My first thought as well.

It haunts me and I've only heard it on videos. Not refreshing my memory thanks
