That's funny about you two - my oldest son does the same thing, HAS to have a fan going by his head to sleep. I'm the opposite. Even on hot nights when a fan blowing on me would feel good, I get creeped out & have to shut it off. I can't hear anything else & have the silly feeling that something's waiting to creep up on me. Every small noise that I can barely hear over the fan, I have to turn off the fan & check it out. It's not even a fear in me but perhaps a hold-over from my days of needing to hear my babies cry when I slept at night.
I've got another son like me who can sleep through loud noises as long as his subconscious knows the sounds come from outside. As soon as the sounds are from inside, even small noises, he wakes up.
You both ought to hear the sounds of a wind harp (aeloian harps). Now those can give spooky sounds depending on the strength of the wind. The example here isn't one of the best but gives you an idea:

BTW, mist, it wasn;'t the sound that made the neighbours wonder but the fact that only strange Oriental people had wind chimes. No self-respecting white person would have those "things" around. Same with incense - this was even before hippie days.
