What do you say if someone asks about the noise behind the locked door?

if you don't take her to the hotel the ho tell everybody
The better plan is to put something outside the door that makes noise so you have white noise in the room with the door. Maybe a little fountain or such.
Obviously if you can't cover the sound up enough that you are paranoid then you aren't ready to have people over your house while doing this. In some cases you just can't get the sound levels down far enough so true stealth might not be an option.
If the person was asking whats making noise behind the locked door that would suggest they already tried to turn the door knob and thus already through something odd was happening in which case the majority of your cover is already blow.
Sound proofing might help as some have suggested but I think white noise is the way to go. Maybe an aquarium in the hallway or whatever room this room connects to.
Making excuses for the noise up is kind of hard because most excuses won't explain why you have this room that closed and always making noise but nobody ever goes in. You want to silence it or overpower it with white noise.
I've lived dangerously and I have to say it's not worth it.
If you are trying to get into a serious relationship while hiding this it's certainly best not to start lying about it that why I suggest white noise and silencing over excuses, but certainly it wouldn't hurt to have a solid excuse. I just can't think of anything that the a serious girlfriend wouldn't want to see.
The roomate excuse is ok for a one night stand, but what happens when the roomate is never around. They do make these expensive sound proofing tiles but that would be some money and work to put up, but I guess better safe than sorry.
A combination of cheap sound proof and something outside the door that makes noise is probably the simplest solution. Beside that people really shouldn't be asking about noises UNLESS they already think something is up... ya know.
I mean unless you suspect someone is up to something like growing you don't go around there houses thinking.. hey what's that sound. Houses make all kinds of sounds from HVAC units to furnaces and so on, most people don't think twice about them.
So maybe you are being a little paranoid thinking like a grower when most people won't think like that.
They make those little fan powered air cleaners that plug into a recptible, similar to a plug-in air freshener, but with a fan. That might make enough noise and go just about anywhere that you have a plug.
Maybe you could invest in a whole house wireless sound system and just kind of have background music going in the hallways ?

A while back I had a veg closet in my room and was chilling with a chick, the door to the closet wasnt the best and it popped open, revealing everything... that sucked. I hope your girls chill cause relations and secret rooms dont usually last long.

chances are you are like most people and you can hear the slightest noise and you automatically think that everyone can hear it and will know exactly what it is. "yup thats deff a fan keeping pot plants cooled down behind a locked door" LOL they have no idea what kind of noises your place makes so if they show up and it is going and isnt that loud, then they probably wont ever really notice it.
I think that the small water fountain is a great idea.
You will hear every single little noise that room makes. Because you know what those noises are it makes you very paranoid. Just remember that no one else knows anything and has no idea what is going on. just play it cool and dont say shit about it.
If they ask what it is just tell them it is a storage room and thats where you keep your extra crap. and move along to the living room for the Tube or the bedroom for some tail.

Say "I have a fan going" because thats what it sounds like. Coach yourself to be calm. Realistically it's a better idea to be calm instead of seeming uneasy because anxiety will tip them off something doesn't make sense. Then the person will say "thats what I thought." Alternatively they will recognize the sound as a fan and think nothing of it. Then usher them to the door. Sorry if this is common sense for anyone. Seems to me some people need to hear it. Good Luck. Also if you haven't heard growing requires a different lifestyle. Dump gfs/bfs, no friends over. Those people will send you to prison quicker than you realize. Get this. My best friend who've I know since 3rd grade turned on me. I taught him to grow. I shared my pot with him everytime I harvested or bought some. Like taking him out for dinner each time I had some which was about everyday. I gave him my best female plant. Somehow was leaked out that I had some knowledge and a tutorial written, then a newb comes to me asking for lessons in a room of friends. I get angry, go to him, to say why the fuck would you ever do that? Turns out it was his lil bro that told the newb about he and I. So my friend becomes angry that he has shut down. We're talking it over about how we would love to pick up the blabbermouth and feed him to the wolves. He ends up taking it a step further, actually telling blabbermouth that he and I are going to beat his ass. I call blabbermouth to calm things down and continue the triangle of distrust. He thinks I've betrayed him. I think, "how can it help the situation to anger blabbermouth?" Think of all the time you've invested in learning to grow, getting the materials, and the joy of growing, all those things are sacrificed instantly if you don't have security.

Yer just gonna have to not have girls over man...
No one knows where my spot is. Not even my wife (just in case something happens she has no idea where it is...). THAT requires trust. She understands tho, so its not a big deal.
You just have to make concessions when you're doing what you're doing...sucks to not have people over, but unless you can get your shit straight and get a 2nd spot its gonna be alot of sleepovers other places...
