That point of sleep where you realise that your arm is sticking out of bed and therefore susceptible to being grabbed by
Freddy Krueger or similar that has been waiting under your bed until you fell asleep. Symptoms include leaping, gasping, rapid heart beat, withdrawing vulnerable arm, wrapping body tightly in
protective bedsheets.
This syndrome was created by excessive watching of horror flicks, usually at a
socially unacceptable age.
