hypnagogic

This stage, dubbed “hypnagogic,” is what intrigued Oudiette.

Nighttime “visitations” may be chalked up to sleep deprivation, to hypnagogic or hypnopompic hallucinations.

On the contrary, hypnagogic illusion is, with me, a decided phenomenon.

The first is hypnagogic hallucination, the second coloured audition.

In half-waking states these manifestations are relatively frequent in the so-called hypnagogic hallucinations.

These ‘hypnagogic illusions’ Pontus de Tyard described in a pretty sonnet, more than three hundred years ago.

The experience of hypnagogic illusions also seems far more rare than ordinary dreaming in sleep.
