In medieval legend?, an incubus (plural incubi; from Latin incubare, "to lie upon") is a demon supposed to lie upon sleepers, especially on women in order to have sexual intercourse with them. The feeling of smothering while sleeping is well known. The modern term for this common disorder is [sleep hypnosis]?.
