Meet Nihtlic, my personal custom fursona. She may look like any other horse, but she's actually a nightmare:

"A nightmare is an unpleasant dream. Nightmares cause strong unpleasant emotional responses from the sleeper, typically fear or horror. The dream may contain situation(s) of danger, discomfort, psychological or physical distress.

Until the 18th century nightmares were seen as demons. These demons sat on the chest of their victim while they were sleeping.

The term 'nightmare' comes from the word 'mara', which means 'bad ghost'. There was also a goddes with the name Mare who changed into a white mare with blue eyes and a red cord around her neck. She was often visualised with 9 foals or she had 9 heads, because 9 used to be the devils number in the middle age. People tried to stop the mare, they threw barely grains around the bed. The mare would then be too busy with counting the grains, instead of bringing around bad dreams.

People often use the nightmare as subject for stories. Most of the times people describe her as predicting and raising anxiety."
