Yeah, they are extremely rare. Some would argue that they don't even exist at all. They think that it's a psychotic disorder and the person does it to themself. I've never experienced it and I've never known anyone that has so I can't say for sure.

I doubt they want all the way into Egyptian philosophy and language to find their name.

i found a little more info on incubi and succubi. incubus is a latin word, it stems from incubare. i belive that is medivial latin for incubation. Succubus is from the medivial latin word succuba. It stems from succubare. sucubare means to lie with. The demons first apeared in the"Malleus Malficarum", the inquisitation age vatican handbook on demons. i'm going to keep looking, this is turning out to interest me even more than i first thought.

This is still bizarre either way you look at it. Someone said it could be a psychotic thing, maybe they're right.
