The rape she describes sounds uncannily like a sleep paralysis attack - compare it with accounts of rape by demons and aliens. By which I don't mean to belittle the experience - SP can be traumatic and horrible. I had some bad attacks as a teenager, the worst one complete with auditory hallucinations.

(It goes without saying that it is not impossible that her stealthy and competent rapist was physically real.)
