J.L., I a...Thanks everyone for the great comments!<br /><br />J.L., I agree. It is discomforting, especially when there's a scientific/medical explanation (sleep paralysis), which I forgot to mention. lol Thanks for stopping by!<br /><br />Mara, thanks! Yeah, I knew about that but not that there was a specific name for the offspring of one. I looked up "The Fifth Element" and couldn't really find anything on that connection. The character from the movie is actually Leeloo. Very intriguing though!<br /><br />Karen, thanks for stopping by! I'm really glad you liked my post. =)<br /><br />Charlie, sure. Go ahead. Could you send me the link afterward? Thanks.<br /><br />Elizabeth, ah ha! I totally forgot to mention the sleep paralysis part! I knew I missed something. Thanks for stopping by. I'll totally have to check out the documentary.<br /><br />Alison, thanks! I'm really glad you enjoyed it. =)<br /><br />Marsha, yeah, they're very interesting. I love learning about the lore behind creatures. I agree that they probably became an easy way to explain those things. There's also sleep paralysis though, so that probably also played a role in how they came about.Sarah Mäkelähttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10239437847082720298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17424387.post-46698944547362779482011-04-11T22:13:26.534-04:002011-04-11T22:13:26.534-04:00Didn't know the lore behind the demon.

There is a good documentary about this phenomenon floating around on YouTube. The people who have incubus experiences are obviously shaken and traumatized by it. It is genuinely creepy.

It reminds me of the Bruce Willis movie, "The Fifth Element," in which Milla Jojovich's character (the 5th element) was named Lilu. I wonder if that was intentional or accidental.Mara Nashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14628961488068784772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17424387.post-37066334033212668092011-04-11T07:12:46.983-04:002011-04-11T07:12:46.983-04:00I've read about these, and it's dicomforti...I've read about these, and it's dicomforting to think that stuff like this might acutually happen. :) Enlightening tid bits!J.L.
