I thought I heard the sound of my front door opening last night but it turned out to be a figment of my imagination. figment of one's imaginationSomething made up, invented, or fabricated, as in "The long dishevelled hair, the swelled black face, the exaggerated stature were figments of imagination" (Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre, 1847).
