Seems like night fears/nightmares, common at this age. Reassure her, avoid scary content before sleep, keep lights dim (not dark), and maintain a calm bedtime routine.
Avoid screen time or reduce it.
Sit with her till she sleeps. Usually settles with time. If very frequent or worsening, can review once.
