** Another, "The Unbearable Bear" featuring Sniffles the Mouse, involves a policeman chasing a burglar in his own home, but both parties trying to stay quiet because the policeman's wife is sleepwalking. Though it's more because they're both afraid of what she'll do to them if she wakes up.
* In ''[[Day of the Tentacle]]'', Bernard will refuse to awake Dr. Fred because he has heard it is very bad to wake up a sleepwalker.
* In ''[[Girls Next Door (Webcomic)|Girls Next Door]]'', [[The Phantom of the Opera|Erik]] advises [[Labyrinth|Sarah]] not to wake Christine when she finds her sleepwalking toward his room for some late-night music lessons. Sarah dryly informs him that modern science has disproved that notion, then makes him promise to forget the potential trauma and just [[Brick Joke|dump a bucket of cold water on her]] if he ever finds her sleepwalking toward Jareth's room.
* In ''[[Power Pack]]'', the children bring Franklin back to Avengers Mansion after witnessing the Morlock Massacre. When the adults find out about this, Franklin claims he was sleepwalking, and the other children say that they didn't wake him because it would be dangerous.
* In ''[[Discworld (Literature)/Interesting Times|Interesting Times]]'', one of the wizards says that his grandmother always claimed that if you woke a sleepwalker their legs would fall off. A more skeptical wizard asks "How many times did she see it happen?"
