Why do people say old houses make noises

In any case that someone states that my house made this noise or that noise. People responses are "well houses make noises" or you are imagining stuff. That's not true I lived in houses that wouldn't made an unexplained noise. The only reason the house would make a noise was if it was windy outside, or there were rats or rodents in the house, the refrigerator, or the heater would sound. I knew every noise in the house. But if you hear an unexplained noise, what do you have to say about that? I want a good explanation of why you won't blame paranormal activity and why you would think its just the house?

Most hose noises (new and old) are explained by the expansion or contraction of the materials as the temperature changes. Or, by mismatches in workmanship that create places where squeaks can be generated (hence, an older home).

My 30-year-old home "pops" whenever the temperature drops below -20 (I live in Minnesota) and the siding contracts. It makes my dog jump, then she starts barking at the wall. lol.

So, yea, it is normal for a home to make noise.

I used to live in a really old old house and I always heard weird unexplained noises. I believe old house do make some noises due to the settling and shifting. Squeaky floor boards, old floors and doors, Creaking due to vehicles driving by, now it is a different story if lights go on and off and doors open and close, cold spots, the feeling of being watched, if none of that happens I would say it honestly is just the house shifting and making noises not a paranormal thing!

My advice is to try to find a non paranormal answer first and if you can't find anything normal than it might be paranmormal.

when you hear a noise you THINK its a ghost or someone breaking in but you mistake it for LITTLE things but if it is call 911 or a priest!

Cause they are skeptical people that don't want to open their brains. They never think outside the box.

the older the floors get the wood gets... well.... Creeky
