Parasomnias

Captions available

The idea

Parasomnias are unwanted behaviors or experiences occurring during sleep or in the transitions into and out of it.

In practice

Sleepwalking arises out of N3 sleep, with the sleeper unresponsive and later unable to recall it.

Where people slip

Waking a sleepwalker is not dangerous, though it is disorienting. Guiding them back is usually enough.
