Perhaps because I've lived in cities where you can hear your neighbor sneeze, you know the music that they like, their pacing the floor habits, this one, while not scary, seeped into my psyche and has taken up residence.
You just never know what your neighbors are up to exactly, do you? And what if they are summoning evil? This story was brought up in a classic ghost story group and someone commented that Aleister Crowley loved this story and gave out copies to his friends. Hmmm...
