Hunger, indigestion ( dyspepsia) , and acid reflux disease, can cause a stomach to growl. Another cause would be the consumption of too much acidic gastric substances such as garlic and onions which could cause stomach upset.
The rumbles, gurgles and growls you are refering to come from your abdomen, and typically are due to normal digestion.
Stomach growling can occur when you're hungry.
Hunger and appetite are controlled by a complex system of hormone like substances primarily made by your digestive system. When you haven't eaten for a while, these substances are released and cause a part of your brain to "switch on" your desire to eat.
A message is then sent to your stomach and intestines. This triggers muscle contractions and the release of acids and other digestive fluids as your body prepares for you to eat or hopefully eat.

When the stomach is empty, it comtains no food. This means that nothing can enter the small intestine. If there is any air in the stomach (or small intestine), it will be moved through the sphincter joining the two organs, and thus, create a "growling" sound. Air, or gas moving through the small intestine around clutched muscles in peristalisis can also cause this effect.

I heard it was because your stomach was empty and trying to digest itself. Don't know if that is totally true but it sounds almost sci-fi doesn't it?

If its once ina while, there should be no worries, but when its most of the time, like mine..it can be totally something else. Something serious. Like my IBS.
