Pseudohallucinations

Pseudohallucinations are vivid mental images, which however differ from true hallucinations in that they lack the full qualities of true perceptions.

For example, an auditory hallucination may be heard within one's own head rather than perceived as coming from the outside world. The term may also describe a perception thought to come from outside but at the same time recognised as possibly not being real.
