[Volant]

Hmm, I may have experienced that a few times. I felt like I was half-asleep or barely conscious, and this figure who looked a lot like the outline of my mother, a silhouette or something, stood beside me and watched me, and I was powerless. Sometimes she would stand in the doorway to the bathroom area (my bedroom leads into it). It was creepy as all-get-out, and what I think it was was that for some time in real life she had made the habit of, after saying goodnight to me as usual, would stand in the doorway for a few seconds, like a final check to make sure everything was all right, and then go to her bed. I guess that really unnerved me, having her silhouette standing in the doorway like that, and perhaps it manifested itself as some sort of creepy weird thing. I talked to her about it once or twice, and she was surprised and profusely apologized for whatever she may have done to make me upset (whatever she thought she had done wrongly, I guess, which was nothing intentional on her part).

But I haven't had one of those experiences in years. (Plus, that was before I started to take my anxiety medication for other reasons.) XD
