Hollywood's Scariest Characters!
Frankenstein
Frankenstein was the first reanimated movie monster, played by Boris Karloff. Shocking!
Michael Myers
This “Halloween” maniac murdered his sister when he was six. It only got worse.
Norman Bates
Norman Bates, played by Tony Perkins, made taking a shower the scariest thing you could do at the Bates Motel… or at home! Motherrrrrrrrrrr!
Carrie
Carrie, played by Cissy Spacek, made the prom a bloody hell. Based on the Stephen King novel.
Freddy Krueger
“A Nightmare on Elm Street” made Freddy a household name… played by Robert Englund. Sleep tight!
Regan
Pea soup was never the same after Linda Blair played Regan MacNeil in “The Exorcist.” Her turning head literally turned stomachs!
Jack Torrance
Heeeeeeeeeeeeere’s Johnny! Jack Nicholson tormented his family in the terrifying “The Shining,” about a haunted, snowbound hotel. Stephen King strikes again.
Pennywise the Dancing Clown
Tim Curry of “Rocky Horror” fame plays the creepiest clown EVER in another Stephen King scarefest, “It.” Coulrophobia, anyone?
Annie Wilkes
Kathy Bates terrified both James Caan and audiences as the creepy Annie Wilkes in “Misery.” She got an Oscar, we got the willies.
Damien
Harvey Stephens was the embodiment of evil as little Damien Thorn. Kids can be such angels… except when they’re fallen angels!
Dr. Hannibal Lecter
Sir Anthony Hopkins won an Oscar for his portrayal of the cannibal Dr. Hannibal Lecter. Even from behind bars, he manages to torture his visitors. Fava beans, anyone?
Joker
Heath Ledger’s tormented Joker was the embodiment of the criminally insane… and looked it.
