Buy the Rokugan book. There's a spell - I think it's 7th level - that let's the caster plague a victim with disturbing, powerful, erotic dreams.

Furthermore, the next day the caster gets a huge bonus to manipulate the target of the spell - especially if it's a seduction attempt.
 

Sending could theorically be used... Of course, it won't deliver a dream, but it could deliver a message in their sleep, thus waking them... Or the message, if whispered, would not wake them up but could be incorporated in the dreams they are having. Cool thing about Sending is that there is no saving throw or spell resistance applicable.

I'd just let them wake up, everything normal. Then something goes horribly wrong. Then they really wake up... :D

Although Sending a message to them every night would be good. Who wouldn't be unnerved by someone whispering in your ear while you're in bed?

Especially if the BBEG combines his sendings with Scrying

I see you...
 

Perhaps a night hag who has been able to modify her
heartstone to allow her to affect good/neutral creatures.
Then the party must seek her out before they die from
con loss.

Should give them enough time as she will only affect one
of the poor saps per night.

To resolve the CR problem, you can assume it was
necessary for her to add some of her
power/essence/whatever to the heartstone during the
process leaving her in a weakened state (no SR, no
immunities, reduced strength, etc.);

Maybe she is known as an infamous witch that is said
to live in a particular area (ack - visions of past conflicts
with Baba Yaga arise...). In any case it is important not
to give away her nature (she does have poly self so if
she were a grossly large ogre-witch that must be moved
about in a palanquin carried by grimlock slaves - all the
better).

Just a thought.

Have the BBEG sneak up on the PCs while they're sleeping, and simultaneously dip their fingers in little bowls of water. At the same time, have him activate a contingency spell that gives the PCs a dream about sahaugin in seashell bikinis.:cool:
 

Just use the dream spell on a minion and make it seem like divine warnings or prophecies that warn against the powers of their foes and provide blessed information on special weaknesses. Of course these weaknesses don't actually exist. "What do you mean our special ash staves don't harm it, the dream said they were the only things that he was vulnerable to?"

Perhaps the dream gives them information on entering the dungeon and gets them past the first three obvious traps but then leads them straight into the fourth massive death dealer.
