Perhaps it was a hypnopompic hallucination? I ask because I have many experiences waking up from nightmares and hearing bizarre sounds or seeing bizarre things. Like ice cream truck sounds outside at 3am. Or seeing the face of an "alien" standing next to my bed.
Hopefully your experience was just a trick of the mind!
certainly sounds like a fair explanation! don’t you just love how our brain works?
Yes! This stuff certainly raises a ton of questions. I know some, maybe all, of it is probably random "noise" but I've always wondered if peripheral states of consciousness let us perceive things that are "real' (somewhere out there). That's the great mystery I want to see unraveled in my lifetime.
