Involuntary reboot log 10.18

Closed lid. A few minutes later, reopened lid, but keyboard and mouse not responsive at login screen. Closed lid, reopened lid; now screen was black when opened, although backlight was turning off and off. At one point, I heard a notification sound, but couldn’t get the machine to respond, so hard reset.
