I hear a strange sound during my games. Why ?

I play a lot survivor and I don't know if it happens for killers, but sometimes, rarely (I am level 70, devotion 4, and I think I heard the sound around 3, 10, 15 times), I hear, I think, when Small game or Premonition activates, although I don't have those perks.

Why those sounds are appearing ? And have someone got the same sounds ?

I have to mention ; the sound can be heard multiple times in a trial, and only in a trial.

There also is a second sound, which is Small Game sound in more silent.

(I'm not english, so excuse me if i'm not talking that good)

    I thought there was no laughs, and I made a mistake : there actually was one.

    I put the video part into this file, if you want to check.

    Well, my question is answered. Thanks, NoOneKnowsNova and TripleSteal !

    Could you possibly make a short video showing the sound? Also your english is really good and you shouldnt apologise for it ^^

    I don't have any videos about it because it would take a year to finally get the sound into a video, but I checked on DbD wiki all sounds, and I think the closer sound I found is the one from Premonition.

    I'm downloading something that maybe have every sounds of DbD, so i'll check, just need to wait.


    Ugh, I can't find the good sound file, there's too much ; There's at leats two hundred files to check !

    Oh, and while I was searching and experimenting perks sounds, I noticed there is another sound, which is Small game, in more silent.

    If it's a squeak followed by a weird laugh, it's an indication that gnome chompski spawned somewhere (which is triggered by EGC rather than hooks).

    It's a new mini event that allows you to get a charm after you find and interact with the gnome (and escape afterwards if you are playing as a survivor).


    Hopefully it's not plagiarism if i copy paste my own comment.

    I don't think that's the right event :

    Like I said, the sound is close to Small Game in silent. I haven't said that, but there was no laughs in the sounds.

    Also, It's been a year since I played for the first time at DbD (That's why I'm at my fourth devotion), and the first time I heard the sound was from, at least, the middle of the year. Maybe from the beggining of the year.


    I installed something to record videos, and even if the quality is horrible, I'll try to get the sound.

    I think I'll record at least 100 trial before catching the sound, but I'll do it.

    Are there any patterns in regards to maps/realms? Could those be some map-specific sounds? Killer-specific?

    No, It appeared on several maps, and the sound always came when I was moving and searching for generators or anything.

    Well, I think sometimes, I was doing a generator and the sound appeared, but I'm wondering if I'm not wrong.

    I don't think we can really help me for the sound (I'll catch it in a video, so don't worry), but I don't know if people heard sounds like what I can describe, and I really want to know.
