Succubus
Succubus is a tag for books featuring succubi, supernatural beings—often depicted as seductive female demons—who use charm, allure, and desire to influence, tempt, or drain energy from mortals, typically through intimate encounters. Rooted in mythology and folklore, succubi symbolize themes of temptation, power, forbidden attraction, and the interplay between desire and danger.
Stories with this tag span genres such as paranormal romance, dark fantasy, urban fantasy, and horror, and may portray succubi as antagonists, antiheroes, or complex protagonists navigating mortal and supernatural worlds. Common themes include seduction, morality, transformation, and the struggle between darkness and redemption.
The Succubus tag appeals to readers who enjoy sensual, mysterious, and supernatural tales, where passion, power, and peril are tightly entwined, and where the line between predator and partner is often blurred.
