It's called 'false memory' whether or not you want to include the
'syndrome', and, yes, people can very well remember things that never
happened and couldn't have happened.
Memory is a dynamic process of the mind, not just a library of
experiences, but one of the toolkits of the imagination.
What you _were_ heralding, remember it or not, was the concept of
'morphic fields', which are part of Sheldrake's lunatic explanation of
nature.
