That does sound creepy. Maybe the metal of the latch shrunk in the cold, and you heard it fall open?
Maybe it could have been pushed shut with a broom if one was available. I’m not familiar with manholes. But definitely do what feels safest and stay in your room.
After not hearing anything for a few hours, I actually did go out to try and push it closed. It's not a latch, it has some sort of key, but I can't actually turn the key to lock it because it's too high up and not really usable by anything except finger
Thank you. Something about the situation felt and still feels off, and I've never really been in this situation before so don't know how to react
Good thing you’re out of there, it does seem weird
