By Imagine waking in the night unable to move, overcome with dread, hyperventilating with terror and feeling like a great weight is on your chest, suffocating you. You feel electrical jolts or vibrations running through your body; hear hallucinatory sounds like dogs or laughing devils; or see a person, animal or evil presence by you, on you, threatening you, touching you, penetrating you. This kind of experience, far more frightening than an ordinary nightmare, is called sleep paralysis.

Exposed, the undulating surface of the brain is shimmering and opalescent, punctuated with arteries and veins.

Dreaming is often dismissed as irrelevant and unimportant because it occurs while you’re asleep or lacks the logic that guides you during waking hours. But that is a huge mistake.

Novelist Stephen King, the so-called 'King of Horror', was asleep on a transatlantic flight to London when he had a nightmare about an insane woman who held captive and mutilated her favourite writer. The result was the bestselling book Misery and later a film that won an Oscar for Kathy Bates for her chilling performance as the mad woman. The Shining, director Stanley Kubrick's masterpiece with the unforgettably scary Jack Nicholson in the lead role, was similarly inspired.

As a neurosurgeon and a research scientist, dreams hold a particular fascination for me. Having spent my life immersed in the brain, I am not only infatuated with its infinite complexity but also captivated to the point of obsession by what remains one of its greatest and most mysterious features: dreaming. The source of dreams is the same as all mental activity — waves of electricity moving across the brain every moment we’re alive.
