Lady Macbeth does many weird things in her sleep. She keeps a candle near her at all times (as she wants to be rid of evil), and writes something down on a piece of paper before sealing it.

She also washes her hands for 15 minutes at a time, as she desperately attempts to clean her stained conscience. Finally, Lady Macbeth also rants in her sleep, by basically summarizing the evil doings of Macbeth (example: the killing of Banquo).
