I'm glad to read of so many experiences like this on here. I awoke sporadically two days ago to a mans voice seemingly coming from a foot or two to
my right, all that he said was a name. I was thinking "who the h!@# is that?, I don't know anyone by that name..." I looked around for the source
of the strange voice still ringing in my ear, turned over and went back to sleep for another hour or two.
I was going to chalk it up to a dream but I realized at the time that it was a distinctly deep and strange mans voice that I could not place with any
I'd ever heard and that the name I'd heard him say, though a mans name, was rather 'old school'. Not that it was from the olden days, but no one
I'd ever met went by that name. Thanks to being half conscious right after waking, I cannot recall it any more. I had the gut feeling afterward that
it may have been his name, but I could be wrong.
I've never had something like this happen so it's still bothering me a bit. I've had no auditory hallucinations in my life that I can think of. Of
the few dreams in my life that I could even recall, none have ever come close to affecting my perceptions or coming through after I've woken. One of
the spirits that passed through my home a good year ago would mumble and murmur in an unintelligible whisper as I would try to fall asleep but that
ended after a few weeks.
Enough rambling, I'm just really glad to read that a lot of people have experiences like this, though they really seem to center on spirits or
mischievous things calling that individuals own name. My sister's experienced the same thing at school, hearing her name called from a foot or two
behind her, turning around in her seat and realizing she was in the last row.
