a hallucination is when you see, hear, smell, taste, or feel something that isn't there with the compelling feeling or thought that it is real.

a pseudohallucination is an image vivid enough to be a hallucination but recognized as unreal.

A delusion is something you believe, a hallucination is something you percieve.

For example, it would be a delusion to think that your teddy bear is alive.

It would be a hallucination to see the teddy bear crawl up onto your bed and start talking to you.

A hallucination is seeing something that isn't there. Being paranoid is afraid of small things and being worried something is going to happen. Extreme paranoia can sometimes lead to hallucinations but they are separate things.

You ask someone if they can see or hear the same things you can. If they can't it's a hallucination.
