Is it normal to see things that aren't there?

Nearly every night I wake up and see spiders dangling over my face. It's almost like a hallucination and I have a panic attack and can't breathe for 2 mins and insist on having the light on to check and they are never there. I have always disliked spiders but now this weird thing has made me absolutely terrified of even the tiniest spider! This has been going on for over a year and my partner is really starting to get fed up of it now....anyone else get this or similar?

    OMG this happens to me! I dream that a spider is on my bed and then wake up and panic thinking it is actually there.

    See things that aren't there...
    Should be self- explanatory

    This is some weird shit, I had it once after playing Dead Space, saw Unitology symbols all over the walls and other stuff. Funny thing is that I could read everything it said.

    I go through phases where I wake up and see them crawling all over the walls, except they're not spiders, they're just little black lines that move around weirdly. It used to drive me crazy but now I just stick it in the bucket marked "visual disturbance" and class it as one of those many weird things that happen in life.

    Theyre hypnopompic hallucinations. They happen when you just awake from a dream. The spider think is very common. Also seeing strange calligraphy written on the ceilings and walls is also common. Its how Morpheus mind fucks us all.
