Horror movies are incomplete without an antagonist who is ruthless as hell and scary to send a chill down your spine. Whenever you watch a horror film, all you wish for is that they won’t come haunting you in your dreams. Here’s a list of the most creepiest of villains who have been haunting us forever:

A child’s doll, Chucky is portrayed as a serial killer who has the ability to perform Voodoo. The doll is actually possessed by a serial killer’s soul. Imagine a doll killing people, how creepy is that.

Freddy Krueger (A Nightmare on Elm Street)

Possibly one of the scariest villains of all time, Freddy has an in-built weapon to kill and those are his bladded gloves. He is a child killed who goes on to also kill adults by pulling out their veins, making their head explode and making them go crazy. Crineworthy as hell!

Jason Voorhees (Friday The 13th)

He has used knives, axes, machetes, meat cleavers, spear guns, bows and arrows, pitchforks, fireplace pokers, hacksaws, broken bottles, sauna rocks, his bare hands, and twice knocked characters’ heads off with a single punch. Woah that’s alot of ways to kill people!

Ghostface (Scream)

Annabelle (Annabelle)

Dolls are meant to be cute and cuddly but this one sure isn’t. Annabelle although given as a gift is possessed by demons later on in the movie for which the demons now demand a soul be offered to them to leave the place. The doll is creepy as hell as it makes the other characters commit suicide by jumping off of windows or in front of a car.

Count Dracula (Count Dracula)
