Here is a list of articles in the Hallucinations category of the Unsolved portal.

Articles relating to hallucinations, perceptions in the absence of an external stimulus that have the qualities of real perceptions. Hallucinations are vivid, substantial, and are perceived to be located in external objective space. Hallucinations are a combination of 2 conscious states of brain wakefulness and REM sleep. They are distinguishable from several related phenomena, such as dreaming (REM sleep), which does not involve wakefulness; pseudohallucination, which does not mimic real perception, and is accurately perceived as unreal; illusion, which involves distorted or misinterpreted real perception; and mental imagery, which does not mimic real perception, and is under voluntary control. Hallucinations also differ from "delusional perceptions", in which a correctly sensed and interpreted stimulus (i.e., a real perception) is given some additional significance. Many hallucinations happen also during sleep paralyses.
