Lilim
The lilim, or lilin, are dangerous demons similar to succubi that reside in Hell. The lilim were conceived through Lilith alone, though some of them came from the union of herself and Samael, the angel of death.
Men feared the lilim for this reason and women also feared the lilim because it is believed that they kidnap children like their mother, Lilith. They are amazingly beautiful and strongly resemble their mother. The lilim are said to bring harm to human children, and to seduce men who are caught in their gaze. Like their mother, they drain men of their essence.
Lilith was believed to be the sexual, pleasurable manifestation of a goddess, the prime deity of the prevailing religion which ancient Judaism sought to destroy. Such folklore said Lilith had control of life or death over any child produced by any sexual union not prescribed by Jewish law including husband and wife in candle light, the woman completely naked, or at a time forbidden by the law.
They were also compared to the Empusa of ancient Greece.
