shri i am not positive about it but from the liliput story i guess its the tactile halluciantions that u feel as if some thing is crawling on u as in cocaine intoxication... may be just a fancy name for cocaine bug...

liliput refers to a country or city, that one of the Gulliverīs travels, if i remember well. They were very small people compared with Gulliver.

hehe interesting, just like the book!

returning to the question, hypnoGogic hallucintations occur when Going to sleep. and hypnoPompic hallucinations occur when waking uP. Hope that helps you remember! Both can be normal. Hypogogic are commonly found in narcolepsy

olfactory hallucinations, mostly organic d/t temporal lobe lesion

auditory: 3rd person auditory hallucination are characteristic of schizophrenia (first rank symptom)
