Why does the dialog box appear twice?

It's literally the first line of code I've written for this challenge and when testing the prompt question, the same dialog box appears twice.

var noun = prompt('Write down a Noun');

Any reason why this is happening?

If you wrote it only once, it should happen only once.

Does your HTML have the line that references story.js repeated?
