Maleficent (Maleficent)

“Maleficent is truly terrifying in both Disney adaptions, Sleeping Beauty and Maleficent. In the animated version, she is a dark enchantress with sinister and wicked intentions. She puts a spell on 16-year-old Aurora, proclaiming that she will prick her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel and d” read more

25. Wanda Maximoff (Scarlet Witch)

“Sokovian war orphan Wanda Maximoff eagerly signed up, along with her brother Pietro, for Wolfgang von Strucker's Mind Stone experiments, which unleashed her unequaled psionic powers. As arguably the most powerful hero in all of the MCU, Wanda's full wrath of abilities began to reveal themselves whil” read more

Ursula (The Little Mermaid)

“Arguably one of the most iconic Disney witches of all time, The Little Mermaid's Ursula (Pat Carroll) was certainly one sassy and spooky witch. She only helps the "Poor Unfortunate Souls" when she's confident she can gain something in return. Case in point: Ursula temporarily granting Ariel's wish t” read more

Bellatrix Lestrange (Harry Potter)

“The most faithful member of Voldemort's inner circle, Bellatrix Lestrange (Helena Bonham Carter) is paranoid, insane and sadistic in all that she does. Both a Death Eater and highly skilled and powerful witch, Bellatrix is her leader's right-hand man and often proves to be more fearsome than Voldemo” read more

Winnie Sanderson (Hocus Pocus)

“The Sanderson sisters from Hocus Pocus are one of the most legendary and iconic trios of all time. Of the three devious sisters, Winnie (Bette Midler) is by far the most powerful and driven witch. Winifred, Mary and Sarah were put to death in 1600s Salem, but a little spell and black candle brings t” read more

Nancy Downs (The Craft)

“The Craft follows a group of four outcast teenage girls who pursue magic in order to gain power; naturally, chaos and mischief ensue. As the leader of the coven, Nancy Downs (Fairuza Balk) becomes all consumed with taking on the powers of nature and her desire to change her life. This proves to be b” read more

Annabelle in The Conjuring and Annabelle

“This creepy doll was so beloved that she got her own film after fans saw her for, like, a second in The Conjuring. Maybe it’s her creepiness (that eye makeup is something else, y’all) or the fact that she’s inspired by an IRL doll who supposedly murdered at least one person, but Annabelle is t” read more

Carrie White in Carrie

“Okay—Carrie isn’t really evil. An overzealous religious mother and cruel high school classmates can make anyone mad and go on a path of murder and destruction. Hell, wouldn’t you want revenge if your classmates dumped pig blood on you at prom? A classic case where “the villain” is the actu” read more

Clarice Starling from The Silence of the Lambs

“There’s Hannibal Lecter, and then there’s Clarice Starling. The FBI agent is one of the most well-known heroines in movie history, and Jodie Foster even won an Academy Award for playing opposite Anthony Hopkins’ equally memorable Dr. Hannibal Lecter. A new take on the character, starring Rebec” read more

Ash from The Evil Dead

“As the final survivor in the original Evil Dead (spoiler!), Ash has become a memorable horror character for dealing with one malevolent spirit after another. His most well-known image is from the later films and the Ash v. Evil Dead television series, where his right arm is notably replaced with a c” read more

Regan MacNeil in The Exorcist

“Before there was The Conjuring or any horror film about demons and devils, there was The Exorcist. Poor Regan MacNeil—she’s a 12-year-old girl who plays with an Ouija board (the No. 1 no-no in horror movies, duh) and gets possessed by the Devil. The ‘70s film paved the way for the modern horro” read more

Ghostface in Scream

“Scream is the iconic horror film of the ‘90s, though I Know What You Did Last Summer runs a close second. But this Wes Craven-directed film didn’t revitalize the modern horror genre by just its plot—its success is mostly owed to its antagonist, Ghostface. And, while he’s not exactly creepy, ” read more

Damien Thorn from The Omen

“Again, another reason why you shouldn’t trust children in horror films. While this lovely family believed their son was Heaven on Earth (cue eye roll), Damien was literally the Antichrist. He smiled as he murdered people...how more signs does the Thorn family need?” read more

Esther from Orphan

“Ah, who couldn’t love Esther, a 33-year-old woman who masquerades herself as a nine-year-old girl and gets adopted by a couple mourning the death of their unborn child? Hmm.” read more

Babadook from The Babadook

“What did we say before? Never trust children. They start hallucinating children's book characters like Babadook in The Babadook. A white-faced man in a top hat with razor-sharp teeth...the Babadook is one creepy MF-er.” read more

Pinhead from Hellraiser

“1978’s Hellraiser introduced audiences to Pinhead, leader of the Cenobites. These disturbing extra-terrestrials have come back in nine sequels, seven of which Pinhead’s Doug Bradley has appeared in.” read more

Pennywise from It

“You can’t walk away from It without being at least a little scared of clowns. Tim Curry first portrayed the not-so-funny villain in a 1990 miniseries, and Bill Skarsgard recently took up the mantle in a reboot of the same name and its conclusion in 2019.” read more

Annie Wilkes from Misery

“Stephen King’s Misery has a simple lesson to authors everywhere: Never meet your number one fan. Kathy Bates’ performance as Annie Wilkes was so good it won her an Academy Award for Best Actress and launched her decades-long film and television career.” read more

Laurie Strode from Halloween

“Michael Myers may haunt your nightmares, but Jamie Lee Curtis’ Laurie Strode will always be there to hunt him down. Curtis would be the #1 scream queen of all time even from her performance in the original Halloween alone, but her especially badass turn in the new Halloween series (which began in ” read more

Chucky in the Child’s Play series

“Do Not Trust Dolls, especially dolls that say: “Hi, I’m Chucky. Wanna play?” This horror slasher series follows a serial killer who transfers his soul into a “Good Guys” doll (Chucky) and terrorizes the doll’s owners. Talk about a toy gone bad. Next up? A Chucky series on USA/SyFy this f” read more

The best of the prequels, but it does disappoint

“Revenge of the Sith was a decent entry of the Star Wars saga. It is for me the best of the prequels, by far outshining the Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones. Having said that though, I still was disappointed. Don't get me wrong, it looks absolutely amazing. If there is one thing all the Star W” read more
