It sounds more like your child is having night terrors. Where they seem like they are awake, but are really in a deep sleep.
They can look you in the eye, answer questions etc. They may not even remember having the episode the next day.
You can look on the internet for more information on this. My son has had them since he was small, they say he will grow out of them...hopefully soon...he is 11.
