Jon and I were catapulted from bed last night by a hideous hissing-growling-grunting-snoring noise, which after a panicked search of the premises was discovered to be coming from somewhere on the roof near the front door. By the time I went out, armed only with a dressing gown and a torch, the perpetrator had vanished. A little Googling turned up this description:

Look, have you ever heard an Australian possum? They sound evil! They look cute, granted, but possums sound like pissed-off-cynical-resurrected-satanic-spirits.

... confirming my initial diagnosis.

We were once away at an SF club camp staying in huts in the forest, and we were woken up by this hideous hideous noise. Karen woke me up because she thought (in her half awake state) that we were being attacked by aliens or something. Possums sound incredibly evil.
