It’s not Greek. Tantibus/Tantabus is mentioned to be Latin for ‘nightmare’, but I’ve never heard of that word. Latin for nightmare - both the bad dreaming and the monster - is incubo.
Plus, *tantibus sounds like the plural dative/ablative inflection of a third declension feminine noun: *tantis. But that word’s already the dative/ablative inflection of the adjective tantus (“so much”).
You see? This is the difference between Diamond Tiara and her dad Filthy Rich, Diamond Tiara would run & cower like a bitch because she hates everyone who’s poor! Filthy Rich on the other hand would protect them , even generously giving up tons of money!
It is probably Tantabus or Tantibus, as Playah said.
Tantalus was a Greek mythological figure, the father of Pelops (grandfather of Agamemnon and Menelaus.), Niobe and Broteas, and was a son of Zeus and the nymph Plouto.
He was initially known for having been welcomed to Zeus’ table in Olympus. There he is said to have misbehaved and stolen ambrosia and nectar to bring it back to his people, and revealed the secrets of the gods. And he offered up his son, Pelops, as a sacrifice. He cut Pelops up, boiled him, and served him up in a banquet for the gods. (later, Clotho, one of the three Fates, ordered by Zeus, brought the boy to life again.)
Tantalus’s punishment for his act, now a proverbial term for temptation without satisfaction (the source of the English word “tantalise”), was to stand in a pool of water beneath a fruit tree with low branches. Whenever he reached for the fruit, the branches raised his intended meal from his grasp. Whenever he bent down to get a drink, the water receded before he could get any. Over his head towers a threatening stone like the one that Sisyphus is punished to roll up a hill. This fate has cursed him with eternal deprivation of nourishment.

It’s either ‘Tantabus’ or ‘Tantibus’.
‘Tantibus’ is latin for ‘Nightmare’, but ‘Tantabus’ is also being used here and there for some reason.
Common misspelling? I dunno.
