* Marge Longacre in the episode "Scarecrow" of ''Series/FridayThe13thTheSeries''. The episode wastes no time in revealing either her villainy or creepy insanity, with much of the suspense stemming from when the heroes Micki and Ryan will finally figure out what all [[EvilIsHammy her big-eyed looks, strange turns of phrase, and husky, low voice]] mean. (The fact her first meeting with them had her turn on a dime from the usual rural suspicion and resentment of city outsiders to welcoming them to stay at her inn should have been a clue.) Still, her switch from [[DissonantSerenity calmly knitting and smiling in satisfaction]] as the titular scarecrow chases a screaming Micki in another room, to [[AxCrazy wildly attacking]] with a pair of scissors, is disturbingly effective.
* ''Series/ShakespeareAndHathawayPrivateInvestigators'': Deirdre, Alban's housekeeper and cook in "Die We Must", looks like Mrs Danvers, runs the house with a rod of iron, and keeps referring to Lu and Frank as 'unbidden intruders', Lu forgives her because she is an excellent baker.

* ''Literature/GoblinsInTheCastle'': Downplayed with Hulda. She always yells (because of her bad hearing), and uses her mutilated finger (which is missing its last joint) to scare William into behaving, claiming that Granny Pinchbottom will bite off the end of ''his'' finger too if he doesn't keep out of the sweet jar. She's also not the best at keeping the castle clean, as evidenced by her letting the laundry sit for months and not bothering to dust the castle for even longer (William notes that he likes to write his name in the dust, and the only signatures that are gone are those that have been covered with new dust). But she's really harmless, and a good cook. She's also genuinely worried about the Baron when he falls into an enchanted sleep in ''Goblins on the Prowl''.
