vivid dream
Hyper-real sleep imagery
A vivid dream is one experienced with unusual clarity and intensity—colors brighter, emotions stronger, details sharper than typical dreams.
Such dreams often linger after waking: I had a vivid dream about my grandmother last night and couldn't shake it all day.
Vivid dreams occur more frequently during certain sleep phases, illness, or medication changes.
