October 24th - Nightmare
Nightmare is a powerful, ethereal being who lords over the Dream Dimension. He sustains himself by feeding off of the anxiety-inducing dreams of living beings. Nightmare first encountered Dr. Strange when Strange was attempting to help a man tortured by recurrent night terrors. While it initially appeared as though Nightmare was the source of this man’s difficulties it was ultimately revealed that the dreams were caused by feelings of guilt over the man having committed a murder; and that Nightmare was simply feeding on these dreams. It was the first of many confrontations between Nightmare and Dr. Strange. Nightmare has also encountered other heroes, including Captain America, Spider-Man, Hercules, Squirrel Girl, Sleepwalker and Moon Girl. He first appeared Strange Tales #110.
