Succubus

Succubus is a legendary female demon or supernatural entity believed to seduce men, often through dreams or nighttime visits. Traditionally rooted in medieval European folklore, succubi are said to drain life force or vitality from their victims, sometimes causing physical or psychological harm.

The concept of a succubus has evolved from mythological origins tied to ancient beliefs about male vulnerability and nocturnal emissions. Modern interpretations often link reported encounters with succubi to sleep paralysis, hypnagogic hallucinations, or other sleep disorders, where the sufferer experiences a feeling of pressure or presence in the room. Folklore and demonology classify succubi as malevolent spirits or demons, sometimes linked to broader themes of possession or witchcraft.
