Term: Incubus

DEFINITION:
A demonic male spirit that sexually assaults women. It is believed that they can actually inseminate women even though they don’t have their own sperm. They pretend to be the female counterpart of the incubus, the succubus, and seduce sleeping men, thus obtaining seminal fluid from a nocturnal emission. Possibly used to explain away unwanted pregnancies.
