About this sound

Step.. creak.. step.. creak..

That's wooden stairs creaking and squeaking for about 33 seconds. A bunch of creaks come one after another like someone's going step by step, with short breaks splitting it up. It's high and squeaky, not much low end. Good for a haunted house or a sneaky trip upstairs.

Editing notes

Measured from this file.

  • There's 0.34 s of quiet before the sound starts. Trim that off if it has to land right on a cut, a hit or a button press.
  • It peaks at +0.5 dBTP, which is over full scale. Turn it down about 2 dB or put a limiter on it before you push it up in a mix.
