Paranoia and an overinflated sense of his own importance maybe, or perhaps he was just joking around.

No, I'm sure that something has happened to give him this impression.
Also remember those papers left inside of his parcels ... there is no reason why he should think up such stories...

Anybody to encounter such stuff, would feel - very naturally - a certain unease at the minimum ...

I would suspect ... well .... ... before suspecting anyone else, I first of all admit that I phoned The Reptile House maybe four or five times in the 1990ies without saying anything, only listening to the silence on the answering machine for minutes on end ... just because I needed to know how the air really was, find even the smallest splint of a difference between that and those terrifying feelings and thoughts I was going through, partly due to those puppet things in my mailbox and stuff, and partly due to, of course, the love ... grasp just one, one short bit of any definite reliable reality ...

Of course, the only ground to stand on, I've found was my own. I know who I am, and what I see and what not. I've always been forced to take things in a relative pragmatical way to survive all the s**t and violence I had to put up with as a kid, i.e. for example if you hate those lies, they deprive you of your life with, you won't have yourself lie yourself! Insofar, I know what I have done and what not, I know where I've been and where not and why, and to the very core. I find no reason or shame not to stand by myself, even where I fail! And apart from the fact that beyond those above mentioned calls, I've done nothing wrong, there is also the fact that I know it is important to be conferred reality (truth) as is, in order to be real. Otherwise the s**t follows you until it is resolved - or faded with time. In the latter case though, it is always subject to sudden say resurrections, and in initial intensity. And I'm convinced that's how it is for everybody.

Therefore - at least those few occurrences should be out of your way now, Von ...

Also, I can well imagine, there were many more people doing such (and other) things.
It's a bit like being tapped for political reasons. Everybody knows they do it.
Still, some music on the phone had been nice ... YCBTO perhaps, or Vision Thing ... ...

Can you imagine '83 era Fat Bob playing on The Reptile House E.P. ? Me neither. He wasn't an unqualified success as Banshees guitarist IMHO and it was bad enough that the Sisters had The Cure's producer foisted on them for FALAA without having the spiralling guitar sound too.
