原因如下：英语单词nightmare （恶梦）由night（夜 晚）+mare（母马、母驴）构成。其实，nightmare中的mare不是“母马、母驴”，而是古英语中的一种妖怪，类似 goblin （地精）或incubus （梦淫妖）。
人们相信这种妖怪会在人的睡梦中掐住人的脖子，使人窒息而亡。由于恶梦常常使人感觉到窒息，因此人们便认为恶梦是mare这种妖怪在作怪，所以把恶梦叫作nightmare。

Nightmare People always say that dreams are always great because we can do something that we can not do in real life and some unimaginable thing can happen. However, the dream I had last night was horrible. In a rainy day, I was running to my home. But when I was near to the river, I saw a ghost on the other side of the river. I was scared, so I wanted to run more quickly. But, I suddenly found that my legs frozen and I fell down. And then I found three people I knew, so I shouted and asked for help. Unfortunately, they just saw me quietly and nobody helped me. Then I cried and woke up. After I woke up, I was still scared, so that I turned on the light. But the good thing was that I feel lucky after woke up, because nothing horrible happened.
