Succubus
A demon who takes the shape of a woman.
Rabbi Elias says that it is mentioned in certain writings that Adam was visited during a hundred and thirty years by female demons, and had intercourse with demons, spirits, spectres, lemurs, and phantoms. Under the reign of Roger, king of Sicily, a young man, bathing by moonlight, with several others, thought he saw someone drowning, and hastened to the rescue. Having drawn from the water a beautiful woman, he became enamoured of her, married her, and had by her a child. Afterwards she disappeared mysteriously with her child, which made everyone believe that she was a succubus. Hector Boece, in his history of Scotland, relates that a very handsome young man was pursued by a female demon, who would pass through his closed door, and offer to marry him. He complained to his bishop, who enjoined him to fast, pray, and confess himself , when the infernal visitor ceased to trouble him. Delancre says that in Egypt, an honest maréchal -ferrant being occupied in forging during the night there appeared to him a demon under the shape of a beautiful woman.
He threw a hot iron in the face of the demon, which at once took to flight.
