This account is from another of my high school classmates, Anjie*.

Anjie lives in a gated subdivision. There are probably less than 100 houses there, and one has to pass through a gate guarded by a security guard in order to enter the area.

One evening, Anjie was in her bedroom hanging out with her cousin, Lisa*. They were talking about Lisa's love life and Anjie was giving her a sermon regarding a boy. Suddenly, Lisa said to her, "Shut up. Listen."

It was then Anjie heard what seemed like giant bat wings flapping, accompanied by an inhuman voice cackling. The two girls huddled together in fear.

Anjie's mom walked in to their bedroom, wide-eyed, "Do you girls hear that?"

They nodded. The peculiar animalistic sounds seemed to last for an entire 10 minutes. When it was over, they cautiously opened the window to see what was going on. They spotted their neighbors doing the same. Some had even wandered outside on the street.

Almost everyone living there had heard the strange creature, but nobody had dared to open a window or door to see what it was while it was still flying there.
