The Little Nightmare is a pet that can be obtained by defeating The Nightmare. It is a much smaller version of her. The drop rate of the Little Nightmare depends on the amount of players in the fight; 1/800 for one, 1/1,600 for two, 1/2,400 for three, 1/3,200 for four, and 1/4,000 for groups five or more.
The little nightmare is able to metamorphose into a little parasite. For Little nightmare to be able to do so, players must use the Parasitic Egg on her.
When a player receives the pet, it will automatically try to appear as their follower. At the same time, a message in the chatbox will state You have a funny feeling like you're being followed. However, if a player receives a pet while having a follower out (for example, a cat), it will be placed into their inventory. When this occurs, the message in the chatbox will instead state You feel something weird sneaking into your backpack.
If a players inventory is full and they have a follower already, they will not receive the pet; it must instead be claimed from Probita in East Ardougne for a reclaim token, which costs 1,000,000 coins.
On death, if a player loses their pet (as a follower or in your inventory) it will wander around the area for 30 seconds before despawning. Even if the player returns in time, the pet cannot be picked up, and can be reclaimed from Probita for a reclaim token.

Trivia[edit | edit source]
- The player asks if the male equivalent of a nightmare (as mare is the common name of a female horse) would be a nighthorse, although the common name for a male horse is a stallion.
- Little nightmare had a festive override wearing a red partyhat during the 2020 and 2021 Christmas events.
