I was hiking in a wilderness area…a very remote trail without a lot of action, and at one point I heard voices…I swore I heard human voices.

It was up in the mountains, too, so there wasn’t much to make noise like that.

Obviously, I know it’s my brain hearing trees groaning in the wind and quickly shortcutting to, “must be a human voice!” But it was just eerie.

    Oh cool, didn’t know this had a specific name. I’m lucky in that it’s a very transient experience for me, but who knows, could become more common as I get older.

    I’m curious if you are a musician and if it helps your creative process to experience this? I’m not particularly talented musically but some of the experiences I’ve had were quite inspiring and I wish I could capture it and share what I’ve heard.
