I notice coins lying all over my bedroom floor, and I can't account for their presence! I once heard that spirits leave coins for the living. Quarters litter my bedroom floor, my sis gets dimes and pennies. My sister says our grandma's spirit is leaving me quarters because I'm so high maintenance :)

When I read your post it gave me a cold chill. I hear deceased relatives and friends holler my name all the time. "DAVID"!! The really scary thing is my dog and/or cat will perk up and look around at the same time I do. They apparently hear it too.
I never heard of spirits leaving coins for the living. My mother (who was 1/2 Lakota Sioux) always told me spirits leave a feather when they visit. The day my mother passed away, I found a large light brown feather laying on my deck. It was laying there by the door, almost as if it was meant for me to find.
*cold chill*
Mom once told me I was "born without the veil". Maybe this is why things are always happening to me.

I love reading about your haunted house and the coins. I've been writing a long PM and was afraid I'd miss you.

I must have just missed you, Larz. We'll talk a bit later. I have other ghostly tales that should interest you.
ZouBEini:
Great! I already feel a chill. Well maybe I only wish I could feel a chill! LOL
See ya, Littlewing!

David, I'm at the point where I'm not even frightened when I hear my name literally screamed. What is especially chilling is that no one else can hear what I'm hearing. What do you think it means? I also got a chill when I read that you have experienced the same thing. The grandmother I mentioned was also part Native American (we don't know which tribe) as are all of my grandparents. My grandma says you can see spirits if you are born WITH a veil, a thin film visible on the face of a newborn.

I've heard of this too. It's a thin membrane they call a 'caul'. If when you're born, you come out with it still on your face, apparently you're spirit sensitive.
I hear my name being called too. Not screamed, not yelled, just spoken and it makes me start and wakes me up from a sound sleep as well.
David,
I wouldn't depend on pets though. Maybe they're starting because you are. You know how sensitive pets can be to their owner's movements. Heck, they have dogs who can sense an epileptic fit coming on in a person before the person even knows it.
Funny thing about hearing your name called? I have my birth name. But I also have gone by a certain diminutive of the name, but over the years, only a few people - mostly close family - call me that anymore. As the years have gone by, I've got certain groups of friends I've met in different places who call me by different names:
e.g. at college I went by my 'official' name to save trouble, so all my college friends know me by this name.
At one work place I went by a different name due to a typo on my cubical nameplate. Rather than have them fix it, I liked that name variation so I went by it and thus have a group of friends who know me only by that name.
I think the name calling thing is just some misfiring brain synapses. As time has passed and I now answer to so many different names, this event has slowly died away. I guess my brain has too many options to choose from.
