-	Eight hundred years ago, Nightmare impregnated the demon succubus Zhilla Char; she died giving birth to their daughter, the Dreamqueen, who now rules her own nightmarish pocket [[Glossary:D#dimension\|dimension]]. For a time, Nightmare courted horror movie actress Roxanne in the mortal guise of Edvard Haberdash, helping her longtime director Lucre establish Club Fear where patrons paid to be terrified. "Edvard" eventually caused Lucre's demise, and Roxanne forced herself to keep dating the abusive, possessive, inhuman "Edvard" since she feared for her own safety and that of the world in the face of a wrathful Nightmare's power. During a recent terror attack, Nightmare exploited humanity's desire that it was just a dream, gaining a foothold on an earthly island where he can manipulate reality at whim. On Nightmare Island, the Hulk encountered and named Daydream, a daughter Nightmare had sired with a mortal woman in a deep sleep, who turned against her father and chose to dwell amongst humanity. Nightmare's natural enemies include the ~~denizens~~ of the hostile adjacent Realm of Madness, as well as the Gulgol, a monster who never sleeps.	+	Eight hundred years ago, Nightmare impregnated the demon succubus [[Zhilla Char]]; she died giving birth to their daughter, the [[Dreamqueen]], who now rules her own nightmarish pocket [[Glossary:D#dimension\|dimension]].
