Ah, a case of Sleep-Paralysis remaining after the brain is already awake. Often thought to be demons sitting on one's chest, because it feels as if your chest is very heavy, and you can only breathe little breaths. But what's with the horse? -

Gah! I should have seen that coming. Of course I know what a mare is. After all, I made that picture for Mares birthday, with a Mare bathing in the Sea (which can also be called "Mare"). That's what you get when you are not a native speaker. You speak the language, but you sometimes have to get around a few corners to get some jokes. I guess the same effect happens if I ask you if you know what "Stilblüten" are. But the thing that really makes me smack my head is that I actually had seen this pun before. When I was in 6th grade we drew the monsters from an AD&D Monster Manual, for a wall patchwork in Art. I drew an Unicorn, and later borrowed the book to make some copies of some Monsters I liked, in order to draw them later. One of them was a Monster called "Nightmare". And even though back then I just thought of the name as a name (I knew what it meant too), I later drew the connection between the name and the monster myself. The Monster was a jet black horse, thin so that it's ribs were showing, with flaming hooves and red, pupil-less eyes: A Night-Mare. -
