* While ''Toys/MonsterHigh'' is full of CuteMonsterGirls (it is a line of fashion dolls, after all), Cleo De Nile, the mummy girl, is a glamorous LovableAlphaBitch and the school's [[AllGuysWantCheerleaders head cheerleader]]. As such, she gets a lot of attention from the guys at school, especially BigManOnCampus Deuce Gordon (with whom she was often packaged).

Since only people of high status could afford to be mummified in ancient Egypt, expect overlap with TheBeautifulElite. Most commonly, sensual female mummies were [[GratuitousPrincess princesses]] when they were alive.

* ''Manga/MonsterSoul'': One of the main cast is the amply-named Mummy, a well-endowed Mummy with bandages wrapped around her body in a {{Stipperiffic}} fashion.

* ''LightNovel/Kou1DesuGaIsekaiJoushuHajimemashita'': Mimia is an incredibly cute, buxom girl who happens to be a member of the Mummy Tribe, though she looks more like a normal human girl when she isn't wearing her layers of bandages.

* ''VideoGame/StreetFighterV'': Menat is an extremely elegant and feminine Egyptian girl. One of her DLC costumes has her dressed like a mummy, covered in wrappings that cover only scarce parts of her body. Additionally, she has a crossover costume that dresses her as Khaibit, mentioned below.

* In ''Film/TheMummy2017'', when Ahmanet is first resurrected she starts out as a dessicated walking corpse, but after devouring enough lifeforce from her victims to restore her body she becomes a CuteMonsterGirl. She also tries to seduce the hero by sending him visions in which she appears as her once-human self.

* ''LightNovel/ACertainMagicalIndex'': Nephthys is an undead Egyptian girl with {{Stripperific}}ally placed mummy bandages.

* Ampata from the ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'' episode "Incan Mummy Girl" is a really tragic example: she has to drain life force from other people to sustain her existence, and she just wants to lead a normal life.
* An Egyptian demon in ''Series/{{Charmed|1998}}'' had the ability to put his dead wife's soul into the body of a hot mortal woman, thus turning her into a seductive mummy. He targeted Phoebe and Paige for this vessel.

* The ballet ''The Pharaoh’s Daughter'' is about an English lord who takes shelter in a pyramid during a trip to Egypt, and after [[MushroomSamba smoking some opium]], the mummies begin to come to life. One of the mummies is the beautiful Princess Aspicia, who
lays her hand over his heart and kick-starts an extended fantasy sequence about him being her lover in Ancient Egypt.

SubTrope to EgyptIsStillAncient. Not related to an attractive female parent.

Moreover, unlike [[OurVampiresAreDifferent vampires]], [[HornyDevil succubi]] and other undead/demonic creatures who usually took on human forms and employed their seductive powers just to drain mortals of their life energy, mummies were much more human, being capable of love and other feelings, sometimes even good-natured and involved in genuine romantic relationships with human males.

* PlayedForLaughs in the ''Literature/DanShambleZombiePI'' novels, in which the Unnatural-staffed Full Moon Brothel's madame is a mummy whose feminine charms have ''not'' fared well after millennia of desiccation. She still ''acts'' the part of a seductress, though ... and at least the mummified ''Pharaoh'' who resides at the Museum of Unnatural History gets tongue-tied in her presence, thinking she's out of his league.

* ''Series/NightMan'': Subverted when an evil mummy queen showed up as the MonsterOfTheWeek in one episode. She used an illusion to make herself look like an attractive woman, but her true form was that of a rotting corpse.
* In the ''Series/AreYouAfraidOfTheDark'' episode "[[Recap/AreYouAfraidOfTheDarkSeason3TheTaleOfTheGuardiansCurse The Tale of the Guardian's Curse]]", an ordinary mummy becomes a beautiful Ancient Egyptian woman after being dosed with an Elixir of Life.

* Anakaris from ''VideoGame/{{Darkstalkers}}'' has a quite attractive female mummy servant called Khaibit. Demitiri's Midnight Bliss attack will also turn Anakaris into a female mummy, but the result is significantly more cartoony.

* For the cover of one issue of ''[[ComicBook/ArchieComics Betty and Veronica]]'', both girls are dressed as mummies for a Halloween party. But while Betty is a typical mummy, Veronica only wears enough wrappings for a makeshift bikini. Upon being called out on it by Betty, Veronica claims that she ran out of bandages.

* The 1971 movie ''Film/BloodFromTheMummysTomb'', based on ''Jewel of Seven Stars'', is about the resurrection of the beautiful Egyptian queen Tera.

* In the 2017 version of ''Film/{{The Mummy|2017}}'', when Ahmanet is first resurrected she starts out as a dessicated walking corpse, but after devouring enough lifeforce from her victims to restore her body she becomes a CuteMonsterGirl. She also tries to seduce the hero by sending him visions in which she appears as her once-human self.
