A person will usually sit up in bed open their eyes and begin screaming. Sometimes they even get out of bed and rush across the room and blindly strike the wall.

So people who experience night terrors are difficult to arouse and usually are not aware of having had an episode. Narcolepsy is a condition where people lose control of their sleep and of their dream sleep.
