What is an incubus?

An incubus is a spirit that attacks women, usually sexually, such as groping of unseen hands and forces, vaginal penetration, or a physical attack. It is considered the same as a woman being raped by a spirit.

A succubus is a term given to a spirit that sexually attacks a man.

As spirits have no physical form, they are neither male or female. Therefore, a spirit can be both a succubus in one instance, and an incubus in another. It is just a way to throw off someone's mental state and try to weaken their defenses, and if it is a man or a woman, then it may take one approach or the other.
