Source: https://www.ranker.com/list/scary-st...lectionId=2139

The succubus, a female sexual demon, is a paranormal entity with a history that dates back thousands of years. Every culture seems to possess a succubus myth. Succubi approach men in a variety of ways, usually while they are sleeping, then seduce them. Often men report that their experiences with succubi are positive and enjoyable, but just as often, they report that the pleasure had a thread of something evil running through it. According to succubus legends, sometimes these men come to bad ends after associating with demonic seductresses.

True stories about real-life succubi experiences have become much more common in recent years. There are numerous posts on Reddit and other websites detailing both erotic and frightening encounters with a real succubus. These posts have become so common that it is well worth the effort to explore the historical background of the succubus, as well as learn about succubus experiences in the present day.

A Pope Prospered While Under The Spell Of A Succubus



A medieval chronicler recorded a "true story" concerning a young man who became involved with a succubus, and who later became Pope Sylvester II. When this pope was a young student, he was called Gerbert of Aurillac. He fell in love with the beautiful daughter of a university dean. She considered him too far beneath her social station and rejected him.

Filled with passion and angst for the woman who turned him down, Gerbert became obsessed with thoughts of lust and sex. It was then that he met a strange but beautiful young woman who seemed to appear out of nowhere. Her name was Meridiana, and she was quite keen to offer him all sorts of sexual contact, esoteric knowledge, and even promised to make him rich. All of these stunning offers held one condition: he must remain faithful to her alone.

Naturally, being a young, horny guy, Gerbert readily complied. He was steadfast to Meridiana, and as their relationship continued, his prospects increased very quickly. In no time he was appointed archbishop of Rheims, a position far above that of the snobby university dean's daughter. Eventually he even became pope.

Now, it is of course well known that Catholic clergy were charged with maintaining chastity, so Gerbert had to keep Meridiana a closely guarded secret. And she maintained her loyalty as well, encouraging and creating his successes, and even once forgave him for cheating on her when he became drunk and cheated with the dean's daughter.

Apparently, she did not fully forgive him, however, because she later made the prediction that he would die soon, on a pilgrimage to Jerusalem, while he was celebrating mass. Gerbert was terrified and immediately arranged a public confession of his lifetime of sexual sins. Had he not confessed and repented, he believed he surely would have died and gone straight to hell. While he immediately canceled his planned trip to Jerusalem, he later died in Rome, where it is said his tomb now appears covered in sweat just before the death of a pope.


Prayer Won't Protect You From A Succubus



Over the centuries, some believed that a life of prayer and religious devotion provided protection from all evil spirits, including succubi. However, such piety rarely seemed to help - in fact, in some cases, succubi appeared to be especially attracted to the devout.

The 19th-century French author J.K. Huysmans became the victim of a succubus while he was sleeping in a monastery. Huysman was actually on a pilgrimage of sorts. He had spent years of his life engaged in an exploration of the paranormal, and now his pilgrimage was intended to help him return to the Christian faith of his childhood. While his intentions were earnest, perhaps he was still subconsciously attracting the wrong sort of spiritual attention.

One night, while he slept in the monastic cell, he awoke suddenly, in the middle of sexual climax, and just glimpsed a succubus as she was vanishing. He was convinced it was no dream, since the bed he slept in held evidence of another form that had lain beside him while he slept. There was a belief at the time that such incidents took place when succubi sought semen from victims, then changed into incubi (male sexual demons) and used it to impregnate their female victims.


Exhaustion Opens The Door To Succubus Torture



When Ethan arrived home late one evening in December 2012, the Bakersfield, California, youth was beyond exhausted. He had spent a very long day studying and listening to lectures at school. As soon as he arrived home, he collapsed into bed, desiring sleep over all else. And yet he slept fitfully, with thoughts of dread and worry that someone or something was breaking into his home and approaching his bedroom door. Suddenly, whatever it was broke through his door, startling him from sleep.

The invading entity flew to the wall behind Ethan's bed and held his limbs down firmly. His ears began to vibrate, even to the point of pain. The young man cried out for help, cursing whatever was restraining him. But the entity only laughed at him in a frightening voice. Suddenly, the entity (which later Ethan determined to have been a succubus) cried out, "Soon!" and let go of the terrified young man. Heart pounding, Ethan dashed to turn on the lights, but nothing appeared amiss. Only his dogs seemed to understand that something dangerously evil had entered the home. They barked and scratched at the door, worried about what was happening to their owner.

Ethan then wandered into the bathroom to have a look in the mirror. He was shocked to see that his eyes were completely bloodshot and red.


A Succubus Posed As A Child's Imaginary Friend



A young man named Patrick reported that in 2012 he was the unwitting victim of a succubus that took the form of an imaginary friend he had in childhood. The imaginary friend was called Lucy, and she would come and play with Patrick when he was alone or lonely. Lucy watched the boy grow and told him that one day, when he reached puberty, she would teach him some new, interesting, and exciting things - things that he hadn't even imagined.

Patrick's parents were concerned and they sent him to a number of psychologists, trying to learn why he was becoming obsessed with a fictional, invisible character. Nothing helped.

Then, when Patrick turned 16, he says that Lucy began encouraging him to meet and date "real" women. She remained nearby to help him and teach him how to make himself and his partners sexually satisfied. And so began Patrick's sexual relationship with Lucy, the succubus. He claims Lucy stuck around for years, continuing to have a variety of sensual and sexual experiences with her victim.

Then Patrick met and fell in love with a real woman. They married, and at that point he began to see Lucy less and less. Then one day, she was gone. After some years had passed, Patrick began to have trouble with his marriage. He began to feel Lucy returning, but he has never revealed if he resumed the relationship with her, or remained with his wife.


Lilith Always Gets Her Way



Lilith is an ancient yet still thriving archetype of a fallen woman. She takes many forms - perhaps the most famous is Lilith, the Biblical Adam's first wife. (Things didn't work out, and she left him.)

Over the ensuing centuries of Judeo-Christian culture, Lilith evolved as the ultimate symbol for succubi. Men across cultures and ages claim to have been visited by Lilith in the form of a succubus. Sometimes she is invoked or invited. Other times, she sneaks in to unsuspecting males and takes what she wants from them.


A Succubus Accosted Her Victim In Public



Some men are not only willing victims of a succubus, they actually research, plan, and summon the female sex demons.

An anonymous online poster claims he prayed to Lilith to send a succubus to him. And soon, that is what happened. He describes her as slender, tall, with fair skin and flaming, long red hair. He called her Aleera, and she stayed with the man for a number of days and nights. The sex, he stated, was incomparable to any he'd experienced before, and Aleera was positively insatiable. He was in heaven and could not believe his good fortune, singing praises to Lilith for helping him.

But after a while, an evil presence also entered the man's life, pushing Aleera out. How he interacted with her changed as well. Sometimes he could only see her in his head, or hear her in his mind. Other times he would be out and about in public and suddenly she would appear to him, touching him in intimate ways, exciting him and simultaneously embarrassing him, as others were around and watching. Perhaps that sort of activity was under the control of the more malevolent force.


For Some, A Succubus Is A Gateway To Satan



A former stripper named Contessa Adams claims to have been repeatedly attacked by a succubus. According to Adams, the succubus was attempting to transform her "into a lesbian." And also a devil worshipper. She said that when she was a stripper, evil entities were drawn to her and that she was once possessed by sexual demons. Further, she cautioned others that "anybody that has been attacked by them will tell you... they're worried [that] they could not find that pleasure with mortal people,"


A Male Virgin Was Utterly Corrupted By A Succubus



Another anonymous Internet poster (among many) was eager to tell of his own personal succubus experience. He is diagnosed bipolar I and was in the midst of his first manic episode when he first encountered the succubus. Though he was raised a Christian, he was also just overcoming an addiction to pornography. In other words, the timing and circumstances were ripe for a visit from a succubus.

He says the experience began with the sensation of a gentle yet profoundly deep touch to his hand, which spread like a warmth over his entire body. At this point, he was fully conscious but wondering what was going on. He claims he could not see the succubus, but sensed her speaking to him as well as touching him. She asked him to go to a private place in his home. He wound up in his car, and that is when the succubus went into action. Over the next minutes, he began to see her form and her eyes, both of which were beautiful, yet he could not see her breasts or genitals, even though he had contact with both. He claimed one of the most amazing parts of his experience was the perfume she exuded. It was intoxicating.

She continued to morph throughout the time he shared with her, transforming her hair color, her eyes, her body, even her ethnicity. "I felt as though we were in the Garden of Eden, making love for the first time in all creation," he wrote.


A Succubus Gave Her Victim Pleasure, Then Stole His Soul



Some experts argue that what humans perceive as an experience with a sexual demon is actually part of sleep paralysis. The inability to move and the sensation of being touched often go hand in hand. However, more and more people are claiming that their experiences with succubi and/or incubi are real.

One man writing about his experience even mentions a feeling of paralysis all over his body. He attributes it to the succubus that was hovering over him. She began kissing and fondling him. He wrote that, while he definitely enjoyed what she was doing, he remained terrified. He was completely in her grip and could not move. Their sexual encounter continued, and he became rapt with ecstasies he'd never imagined.

When it was over, she continued to hover over him, smiling. She asked him if he knew what succubi do and what they are for. Before he could reply, her face turned demonic red and her beautiful teeth became fangs. She laughingly told him that succubi take the souls of their victims and that he would be dead within three days. Then she disappeared. Apparently the man survived at least long enough to write of his encounter and post it online.


A Succubus Seduced A Man While His Wife Slept Beside Him



Succubi don't care who they hurt or who sees them doing their "work." A case in point: a young woman named Veronica and her husband had a strange and violent encounter with a succubus that invaded their bedroom. The two were fast asleep one night when Veronica suddenly awakened and saw her husband being raped by beautiful blonde woman with strange, shining eyes and pale skin. It had to be rape, she claimed, because her husband was "just lying there, like nothing was happening."

The succubus saw Veronica watching, snarled, reached over and slapped Veronica in the face, so hard that the impact tossed her from the bed. Once she stood up and looked around, the "woman" had left. She then woke up her husband, who had no memory of what had just taken place. But there was evidence that something strange had happened. Veronica had a busted lip and was bleeding from where the succubus had scratched her. A small piece of what looked like a medallion was embedded in her husband's skin.

The couple called the police, but they didn't believe their story. It took three weeks for Veronica's injuries to heal.


A Shepherd Was Entranced By A Succubus In Milkmaid Disguise



A purportedly true 16th-century succubus encounter was recorded by author Nicholas Remy. Apparently, a shepherd was hauled into court, tried, and convicted of witchcraft. When asked how he came to associate with witches, the young man claimed that some time before, he had been seduced by a succubus and she had most thoroughly corrupted him.

The shepherd went on to say that at some time after his first encounter with a succubus, he fell in love with a milkmaid. He felt so tenderly toward her, but she wanted nothing to do with him. Her rejection sent him into despair, and his thoughts turned towards the sexual. Essentially, he was horny and could not obtain the object of his desire. One day he thought he saw his beloved milkmaid hiding behind a shrub. He was by her side in an instant, and began roughly kissing and fondling her. Frightened, she pushed him away, then suddenly became extremely receptive to his advances. Encouraged, the shepherd continued, and the "milkmaid" made him promise to "acknowledged her as his Mistress, and behaved to her as though she were God Himself."

And this is what led to his downfall and eventual conviction of witchcraft.
