    Everytime i get a chill down my spine i say "Someones walking on my grave"

    But what does it mean? I heard it from my dad a million times and must have picked it up

    It means you're already dead but you don't know it yet.

    I got a itchy left hand right now *runs off to find some wood and checks lotto ticket*

    I guess though OP that you are just a superstitious person, if you believe in it, why not continue it.

    It's an old superstition.
    Someone walked over the spot where you will be buried someday.

    It's used to explain that sudden, cold shiver that people sometimes get.

    Personally I like the expression, it's very graphic.

    Thats better than my bf thinking it means your dead in a paralell universe:)

    Another thing is my sister always gets a chill when she drives through a roundabout in our town, shes convinced thats where she will die in the future!
