    Sleeping 8hrs: 575 Calories

    During your sleep you burn about 300 kJ per hour, if you convert it into
    calories you obtain (1 calorie = 4,18 joules). So you burn about 71800
    calories per hour during your sleep. If you sleep 8 hours, you'll burn
    574400 calories during your whole night. [Which is 574.4 kcal, or "food"
    Calories, per night. boyd]

    You do but not very much it is only caused by the energy needed for you to breathe (or sleep walk) so in caleries less than thirty I would say.
