People suffering from the sleep disorder “exploding head syndrome” (also known as “episodic cranial sensory shock”) experience an unusual type of auditory hallucination as they fall asleep, wake up, or both. The hallucination takes the form of hearing loud imagined noises, such as a bomb exploding, a gunshot, or a cymbal crash. There is currently no identified cause nor has an effective treatment been identified through clinical trials.
