Esmé Weijun Wang

Even over one hundred years later, as you can see with this case, that religious delusion is still witnessed in these cases.

Around 2013, the writer Esmé Wang experienced the syndrome after she was diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder, and she woke up one day believing that she, her husband, and their dog were all dead, and she existed in some version of an afterlife or maybe purgatory where she had to prove herself for a second chance.

And she's written extensively about this experience.

Thinking back to a time she had fainted on a plane, she then believed she had actually died on that plane.
