Agreed, probably bad switch, if you have any basic knowledge the switch not that hard to replace. But, you HAVE to make sure the power to that circuit is off and verified with multimeter. Even then don’t touch any two wires Bare ends or allow them to touch on bare ends, some circuits wired can have bleed from another circuit. Watch Utube video on replacing light wall switch.

If you have ANY doubt pay someone. Better to safe than sorry. You will have to check for power on hallway Light. My first thought would be just replace the light bulb and see if that fixes it on hallway light?
