In 1768, monks living in a remote mountain monastery began hearing three slow knocks from inside the walls every night just after midnight. They searched the building repeatedly but found nothing. Then one winter, a young monk disappeared from his room. Days later, the knocking returned—but this time, the monks heard a faint voice whispering their names from behind the stone. They broke through the wall and discovered a narrow passage containing an ancient wooden door. On the other side was a small room with a single chair, an old monk's robe, and a journal dated almost 200 years earlier. The final entry read: “If you hear the knocking, do not answer. He learns your name when you do.” That night, the monks heard three knocks from inside the room they had just opened.
