succubus
Definitions
1. A medieval term for an evil spirit or demon who assumes the form of a woman and is supposed to lie under sleeping people, particularly sleeping men, and have sexual intercourse with them. Its male counterpart is known as incubus. Plural: succubi. Humorously defined by Roger Mellie in Roger's Profanisaurus (1998) as: ' A phantom night-time cock sucker once thought to be responsible for nocturnal emissions.' (I do enjoy Roger's version.)2. The person who assumes the bottom or passive position in sexual intercourse.
(Noun) a mythical being that attacks the man when he is sleeping taking all of his strength
Usage: He dreamed he was seduced by a succubus.
