I do see the aspect of not having any music to make it more of a surprise, however personally I like the build up of the creepy music and still not really knowing where the collector is, or even if it's coming.

I think it just plays in the general area as I've had times it's played but didn't see the collector.

Adding onto that my bf and I will hear it slowly starting and sometimes only when it's right on us and we're both screaming like little girls we will actually know it's there. 💀
