The moment every man, woman, and child climbs on to their beds, rest their heads on a pillow, and close their eyes before drifting into sleep for the night, something evil begins to stir. When you would normally expect to find yourself riding a unicorn in a colorful land made out of candy and pastries, or relishing in your complete freedom as you soar the cosmos as Superman, you'll instead find yourself in a dark, horrifying parody of a dream that specifically seeks to drag you into a pit of despair. You'll find yourself in a haunted forest stalked by creepy dolls with knives, drowning in a lake of thick, black oil, forced to run naked with legs made of Jello as the teleporting Monster Clown inevitably grabs you and vomits flesh eating maggots all over your face... Or dropping your ice cream on the floor. As it turns out, there's an entity responsible for those horrible, sleepless nights, in the same way The Sandman is thought to bring good dreams. Meet the Nightmare Weaver, a Sub-Trope of Dream Weaver who exists for the sole purpose of making people wear brown pants in their beds with his bad dreams, and he most likely enjoys doing it. Chances are, he may know just about every fear or guilt he can use to psychologically torture you, and when he's feeling particularly nosy, he'll walk up to you in your sleep and corrupt whatever happy dream you were having at the moment with a simple touch of the finger. If he's feeling lazy, he can send stab-happy dolls, teleporting maggot-vomiting clowns, teleporting doll clowns that vomit maggots with knives, and a plethora of other foul apparitions to do the dirty work for him. More often than not, he'll be not just any boogeyman, but the Boogeyman, maybe even the very incarnation of nightmares with his own personal Mordor of night terrors, and he's nearly always present in settings revolving around Dreams vs. Nightmares, clashing with the do-gooders trying to keep it all sugary sweet. Expect it to aspire to Take Over the World with its nightmares, and lay a claim on the Satanic Archetype if it isn't the real thing to begin with. In short, this kind of character is Exactly What It Says on the Tin; a Decomposite Character deriving from The Sandman who embodies the latter's negative aspects in some portrayals. Particularly cruel ones like to pull you into a nightmare, as well as alcohol poisoning to those who take a shot every time the word "nightmare" is mentioned in this article. In Fantasy Kitchen Sink type settings, this entity will usually be portrayed as among the evilest and most dangerous entities out there, despite the fact that nightmares, by their nature as dreams, have almost no capability of causing any physical harm to a person, because the pain they can cause to a mind if left unstoppable can get to the point of breaking it. If they normally inhabit Dream Land, they may find themselves Weaker in the Real World. Compare/contrast with Dream Walker and Sleep Paralysis Creature. Examples |

Pale: Alpaena is a "mare", a type of Slavic faerie that brings nightmares to people. Surprisingly enough, despite her nature, she's otherwise a very nice and friendly person, and very firmly on the side of the heroes of the story. She says that her job is to give nightmares to people who have done something wrong as an agent of karma, and she tries to tailor the nightmares in such a way as to impart a moral lesson to the recipient. She does admit this has a very low success rate, though. | |

Wonder Woman (1987): Circe imposes nightmares about Hippolyta's then very recent death and Vanessa being kidnapped and transformed into the new Silver Swan on Diana and Donna. It takes them about a week to realize their bad dreams are being inflicted on them rather than just being caused by everything that happened recently. | |

Farnham Fables: Althea the Nightmare is a very downplayed example, despite her scary title: she's a Dream Walker who enjoys tormenting people in their sleep, but her idea of "torment" is closer to mild mischief than actual nightmares: in Episode 4, all she really does is hide Rainbow Keys around Theresa's dream and make her find them. | |

Justice League of America: Dr. Destiny, an enemy of the League, has this has his shtick. Early on, he used a machine called the Materioptikon, which was powered by Morpheus's dreamstone. When he and a weakened Morpheus fought over the Dreamstone, they used nightmares (though Morpheus was rather better at it, forcing Destiny to resort to less subtle measures). | |

Skylanders: In Blackout's backstory, he was born in the Realm of Dreams and recruited into a clan called the Dark Stygian. They combined this trope with Scare 'Em Straight, as they would use their powers to dishearten evildoers by tormenting them with nightmares. However, they eventually fell Drunk on the Dark Side, and began to abuse their powers and spread bad dreams far and wide For the Evulz. Blackout, however, was having none of it and defected, leading to Master Eon eventually recruiting him into the Skylanders when he was threatened by said nightmares and saw Blackout fight them. The Air Doom Raider is Dreamcatcher, also from the Realm of Dreams, who essentially fuses Freddy Krueger and Tohru Adachi into one nasty package. A Psychopathic Manchild and a major Sadist, she took pleasure in spreading nightmares after escaping the Realm of Dreams, having driven entire villages insane with nightmares For the Evulz before joining the Doom Raiders. She goes a few step further than others, as she can actually bring nightmares into reality, and her levels, fittingly, are Mind Screw levels as she distorts reality around her. |

In The New Adventures of Invader Zim, this is the actual name of the demonic parasite that attacks the teams in Episode 13 and traps them in their worst nightmares in order to break their minds down so that it can feed on them. It takes the form of a spider-like creature that appears gigantic in the Mental World but is actually only about six inches tall in reality. | |

Dungeons & Dragons: Night hags are an Always Chaotic Evil Mage Species who intangibly visit sleepers and "ride" them with horrific nightmares, which slowly kill the target. According to some sources, those who die from a Night Hag's nightmares have their souls trapped and bartered to demons. Dream larvae are Semi-Divine abominations who can not only inflict nightmares at will but physically absorb victims into deadly, sanity-destroying dreams. In the waking world, they manifest as the viewer's worst nightmare to scare them to death. Forgotten Realms: The bite of Dendar the Night Serpent causes her victims to fall into a sleep haunted by a continuous stream of nightmares, her dislodged scales turn into nightmares that burrow into the mind of the closest living being, and she can force any being anywhere to instantly relive the worst nightmare they ever had. |

The Elder Scrolls: Nightmares fall under the domain of the Daedric Prince Vaermina, who causes them to happen to mortals by merit of her mere existence and utterly delights in tormenting mortals with them. It is also thought that she genuinely believes the nightmares are gifts, despite the fact that they can and sometimes do end up Mind Raping the poor mortals she chooses to torment. Not that she would care, of course. A more specific example would be her Daedric Quest in Skyrim, where the Dragonborn teams up with a priest of Mara, who also happens to be a former servant of Vaermina, to destroy her Daedric Artifact the Skull of Corruption, which had been stealing the dreams and memories of the nearby townsfolk and tormenting them with horrific nightmares. | |

Pokémon: Darkrai can trap others in neverending nightmares, not that it really wants to. For this reason, it usually hides itself away from other living beings and/or stays relatively close to its counterpart Cresselia, whose feathers can free its victims. In addition, any Pokémon that can learn the move Nightmare can become this, which aside from Darkrai includes the Gengar line and the Dream Stealer mons Hypno and Munna. | |

Child of the Storm: Morpheus, as per canon — it's one of his many roles, given that he is, after all, Dream. He uses it both benevolently (forbidding his nightmares from Harry's dreams, after the events of Forever Red — though Harry has nightmares anyway, because the memories are bad enough), and, well, malevolently, as Yelena Belova found out. The full details aren't made clear, but it warped her body, put her in a strait-jacket, and was so bad that even a vengeful Loki couldn't think of anything to add. | |
