(14,860 posts)It's called a hypnopompic hallucination because it happened immediately after I awoke. If I was a more superstitious person, I might've thought they were ghosts.
I awoke from my couch's recliner after hearing a loud thud from a neighbor, and I saw what appeared to be a family of Native Americans whose skin was all albino-white. I only saw them for a couple seconds, all of them quietly staring at me from a feet away, until they faded away. My heart was instantly racing when I first saw them.
Very odd, because I wasn't dreaming about Native Americans as far as I remembered.
That was back when I had an underground pipe that was badly leaking and a plumber was soon scheduled to drill through the concrete floor slab to fix it. So I'll admit that I was awaiting news of the plumber finding old bones in the ground under the slab, to make the hallucination more meaningful, but that never happened.
