@AndyZiggins As in someone helped you back into your house back to your bedroom? or you went outside while sleepwalking then deciding to sleep on the floor when you came back in? very weird but interesting.

@cookiedipp same case with my brother

Woke up today on the floor next to my bed, hada pillow and blanket all layed out for me. Even had my bedroom lights on. I then walked into the living room and saw the front door wide open. Scary...

I have been sleep walking since I was a child and today still. The first time I sleep walked is when I was a child staying at my grandma's house she said I was very scary because as she said it it was like seeing a dead person get up and walk around.

Lol I sleep walk sometimes. My mom says when I sleep walk, I walk around the house and turn on all the lights. O_O

I was sleepwalking mom said came downstairs and started talking about flashing lights, she told me to go to bed when she realized I was. I laughed when she told me what happened. I figure so long as I don't go driving cars or handling anything its okay I find the whole situation very amusing.

I was on my laptop around 3am a couple days ago and My dad walked into my room and made my bed walked out, came back , stared at me, and then came on my bed and went to sleep. I knew he was sleep walking because he never comes in my room or never just walked right past me. It was interesting. I kind of just ignored him and let him sleep walk.
