The people of Omagh, a small town in Northern Ireland, have been complaining about a mysterious humming (发嗡嗡声的) sound that can be heard at night and bothers their sleep.
In recent weeks, the Omagh District Council has actively been trying to identify the source of a nighttime noise that several residents from all over the small Northern Ireland town have been complaining about. Unfortunately, all their efforts so far have ended in failure, leaving them with no other choice than to call in sound experts to solve the mystery. People said the sound differs from the sound of passing vehicles and can only be heard late at night, usually around 12:00 am – 01:00 am. “It’s like a vibrating noise, real loud at night, about 12 or 1 every night,” one man described the sound. While some have gotten used to it, others claim that it is affecting their night sleep and demand that something be done about it.
“Officers are currently investigating the use of specialist equipment, or a specialist company, to assist in detecting the source of the noise,” a council spokesperson told the BBC. “Due to the wide area where the sound has been reported it is difficult to find out the exact source(s).” Some of the theories being thrown around about the source of the mysterious hum range from farm or factory machinery (机械) to flying saucers. Unfortunately, local authorities don’t have much to go on as of this writing, which is why they plan to bring in sound experts.
Interestingly, Omagh isn’t the only place plagued by a mysterious sound. For years, the English village of Holmfield has been affected by a mysterious noise that has come to be known as the Holmfield Hum. A similar phenomenon has been occurring in Windsor, a Canadian city near Detroit. That sound has been called the Windsor Hum.
