Is it normal to be half awake and half asleep?

So the other day i was sleeping but half awake and hearing noisies feeling someone was in my house walking around.but i was also dreaming but sometimes concious but also lying in my bed awake.. then the dream confirmed to me that someone was in my house. Then i thought where are they. Then i felt someone grab my hair and say "up" it sounded like a man. I then woke up and turned round no one was their..

    A similar thing happened to me a long time ago. You can always do a simple "reality check":

    - Ask yourself "Am I in a dream?" and look around you to find odd things and/or behaviour.
    - Try counting your fingers, breathing while pinching your nose, flying, etc...

    If, one day, you do this and you're in a dream, you'll be aware you're in a dream and you can do pretty much anything: you'll have a lucid dream. That will help you distinguish between dream and reality.

    something similar to that has happened to me this month. my furnace kept making this ringing sound that got my attention twice in the night. i thought someone was walking around my apartment ringing a bell... really creepy.
