If you were near sleep, either approaching or waking, or had awoken prematurely, it very well could be exploding head syndrome. Basically it is your brain firing off dream-like signals. It causes audio hallucinations, though it is in no way a mental illness.

Exploding head syndrome is in no way uncommon, and has been studied thoroughly. Some people hear their name by familiar or unfamiliar voices; some people hear loud noises such as explosions (hence the name); some people hear quieter sounds.

It is a very similar phenomenon to sleep paralysis ans hypnagogic visual hallucinations.

Such hallucinations are possible, though less common, with a waking mind. They are not frequent, but known. Moreoften they occur when the brain is seeking more stimuli and not getting it. The brain is known to fabricate input on a constant basis.

But if you woild rather jump to conclusions and believe every function of your brain is a demon, your belief is your choice.

well you should always rule out the logical before turning to the spiritual, but since mental illness is off the list it could be a spiritual presence. it could be a spirit or perhaps a demon, but it could also be a deity who has been trying to speak with you but is losing patience. the next time year hear the voice, try talking with it, meditate, or try a pendulum to communicate. just keep an open mind and be aware of your surroundings [you might want to keep a journal handy to write down anything to see, hear, and/or feel]

I had that exact thing happen to me many years ago. I was in a convenience store, heard my name so loudly that I turned around to see the person calling to me, and there was no one there, but I believe I was just not paying attention to my environment and matrixing the noises around me. Everyone is correct though. We should always look for a rational explanation before assuming that it is a paranormal event. And also keep in mind that if it was a spirit trying to get your attention, it may have only sounded aggressive because it was trying to be loud enough and exert enough energy to be heard. I completely agree with Nekoshema's advice to follow up with some sort of attempted communication and/or meditation and to keep a journal.

Prsona, Ive not jump to any conclusions if I had I would not have posted here in this forum asking for opinions I wouldve just went about my business believing what I choose to believe. With that being said I appreciate you taking the time to give information on a subject Ive never heard of therefore would not have considered as a possibility.

Nekoshema thank you for the advice. Meditation has always been very difficult for me but I would definitely be willing to try that route if it will bring me some answers. As Ive stated I have had instances of spirits contacting me in the past (just more subtly.) I really feel as tho that is what happened, its a gut feeling I dont really know how else to describe it.

Sometimes i often have spirits contact me by calling my name in a loud voice. sometimes the voice seems a bit reprimanding like i should listen to it. it's often hard to tell if it is bad or good, but i always have the hairs on my arms tingling and feel my breath catch.

Has this happened to you more than once? I think I would be important to keep a journal to document the event/s to see if there is a pattern to them. I think the uneasy feeling that you need to do something could be that the spirit/s could be telling you that you need to act on something. Also I find that guided meditations can be easier than just sitting and meditating. the guided meditations help you into a relaxed state and you follow the words as they flow into your ears. There are a couple guided meditations on youtube.
