10-->-- '''[[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?name=evil%20twin Evil Twin]]''', ''TabletopGame/MagicTheGathering''
11
12Two family members (who [[AlwaysIdenticalTwins happen to look identical]]) who are [[EvilCounterpart moral opposites]] of one another. Typically done with literal twins, these characters are of the same generation, but may have been raised as "cousins", or even [[SeparatedAtBirth completely separated from one another]]. It's especially popular in a SoapOpera, where they can use an IdenticalTwinMistake to wreak havoc with their Good Twin's life.
13
14Typically the evil twin will be [[ActingForTwo portrayed by the same actor]] as the regular character. It's worth noting that in the overwhelming majority of cases the twin is evil; only rarely does an evil character suddenly find themselves contending with a good twin, and in those cases the good version is often simpleminded or purely comic. See GoodIsImpotent and ImpersonatingTheEvilTwin.
15
16The evil twin may attempt to convince their good twin [[NotSoDifferentRemark that they aren't so different]], saying WeCanRuleTogether and that the good twin's friends are holding them back from greatness. This often ends with a MirrorMatch as neither one will be able to convince the other of their ideology. After the fight, their allies will usually need to SpotTheImposter to figure out who won.
17
18[[BeardOfEvil A goatee or other beard]] is less common for Evil Twins than they are for typical EvilCounterpart examples, because it distorts the use of AlwaysIdenticalTwins. However, other IdenticalTwinIDTag tropes are still used to differentiate between the good/evil twins, such as [[GoodScarsEvilScars scars]] and [[EvilMakeover evil costuming.]] Very often, one twin will be right-handed and the other left-handed. [[ASinisterClue Guess which one's which]]. This trope is PlayedForLaughs when '''both''' twins are evil, or when a character on the side of the good guys has a ''good'' twin show up, implying that the [[TokenEvilTeammate original is the evil one]].
19
20SuperTrope to EvilBrunetteTwin, where the AlwaysIdenticalTwins have different hair colours (and [[DarkIsEvil the darker one is evil]]). SubTrope of AlwaysIdenticalTwins (siblings are {{Doppelganger}}s). SisterTrope to, but '''JustForFun/{{not to be confused with}}''': EvilCounterpart (any evil {{Foil}} to a character), EvilDoppelganger (an evil clone or evil AlternateSelf), EvilKnockoff (intentionally created evil duplicate), CainAndAbel (non-twin siblings where one is good and the other is evil), and CriminalDoppelganger (evil IdenticalStranger).

47* [[https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/2011/12/04 When Jon tells]] ''ComicStrip/{{Garfield}}'' that SantaClaus has been watching him, he writes a letter suggesting Santa might have seen his evil twin.
48* ''ComicStrip/{{Doonesbury}}'' had George HW Bush's evil twin, Skippy, as a recurring character during his Vice-Presidency and Presidency. Since Trudeau considered Bush such a bland non-entity that his representation in the comic was just a voice coming out of an asterisk floating in mid-air, Skippy appeared completely identical.
49* ComicStrip/MandrakeTheMagician has an evil twin brother named Derek.
50* In a series of ''ComicStrip/CalvinAndHobbes'' strips, Calvin creates a machine to duplicate himself, then is astonished when the twin doesn't want to just obey him. Turns out it's an ''exact'' duplicate: a twin just as evil as Calvin himself.
51** His duplicator returns in another story, where Calvin has added an "ethicator" to decide whether his clone should be good or evil. It ends up not helping.

55* ''WebVideo/DragonBallZAbridged'':
56** In the "Tree of Life" video, Goku calls Turles his evil twin.
57--->'''Goku:''' But he doesn't have a goatee. I'm going to imagine one. ''*gasp*'' So ''evil.''
58** Lord Slug is an evil Namekian who was split from and exiled by his other half. [[spoiler:He's the ''good'' twin. The evil twin is Super Kami Guru.]]]
59* ''WesternAnimation/DarkwingDuck'' fanfic writers take trips to the Negaverse every so often. A popular subject is [=NegaGosalyn=] and her relationship with the Friendly Four (HurtComfortFic pops up here). [[spoiler: One story even explains why Gosalyn wasn't evil there--the ''normal'' one would've turned rotten.]]
60* Conversed in a [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4302297/9/In_His_Shoes one-shot]] within the [[WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender ATLA]] ''Fanfic/AnotherBrother'' [[AlternateUniverse universe,]] where Sokka believes an evil twin was the reason that [[LaserGuidedAmnesia Zuko]] was banished.
61* ''WebAnimation/TurnaboutStorm'': [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic Pinkie Pie]] suggests that Rainbow Dash has one of these, called [[SdrawkcabName Wob Niar]], as a possible explanation of how the murder of [[PosthumousCharacter Ace Swift]] went down. [[VisualNovel/AceAttorney Phoenix]] insists on it being a stupid idea, but Pinkie being [[CloudCuckooLander Pinkie]], she sticks with it. [[spoiler:While no such pony was involved with the case, after the case is over, Phoenix just so happens to run into a pony who looks very much like Rainbow Dash but colored orange and possessing [[BrooklynRage the mannerisms and accent of Furio Tigre]]]].
62* Played with in ''Fanfic/WithStringsAttached'' when Ringo accidentally sort of becomes his New Zork counterpart's evil twin (complete with BeardOfEvil) because his mere presence makes some trouble for Beagle Ringo.
63* In ''Fanfic/CalvinAndHobbesIIIDoubleTrouble'', Rupert Chill makes himself out to be this. (The ''alien'' Rupert Chill is an imposter.)
64* In ''Roleplay/TheStrexFamily'', the entirety of the titular family (except for Jezebel) is comprised of "doubles" or "multiples" of [[Podcast/WelcomeToNightVale Carlos the Scientist]]. There's both a {{Main/Meta}} and an InUniverse reason for this.
65* In the ''Fanfic/PonyPOVSeries'', it turns out that [[spoiler:Queen Chrysalis' final form after being completed by the Elements]] is this to [[spoiler:Cadence, and she renames herself Queen Cadenza.]] Justified, because [[spoiler:Cadence is the Light of Existence of the original Cadenza and Chrysalis was created from her Shadow of Existence, left behind when she lost a duel at the beginning of time. So as Chrysalis puts it, they're technically twin sisters.]]
66* Played for laughs in one scene of fan game ''VideoGame/RakenzarnTales'', where Kite and Sakuya from Franchise/DotHack meet for the first time in this continuity. Upon seeing Kite, Sakuya thinks he might be her long-lost twin brother and wonders if this means she has to be the evil one now. Chizuko talks her out of it.
67* In ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/332414 Augustin]]'', Franchise/{{Tintin}} is kidnapped and replaced by his long-lost twin brother.
68* In ''Webcomic/TeamRocketRoots'', instead of being {{Identical Stranger}}s, Jessebelle is a clone of Jessie. She, however, is much more malicious than her "sister" and has none of Jessie's positive aspects.
69* In ''Fanfic/LifeOreDeath'' the [[WesternAnimation/YoungJustice members of the Team]] have to split up and each confront an evil clone as part of [[OnlyTheWorthyMayPass the Tower of Fate's tests.]] It's worth noting that the details with each evil copy vary person-to-person: Artemis fights a version of herself who embraced her family's criminality; Superboy fights a [[CallForward berserk, full Kryptonian clone]]; and Aqualad is emotionally at-peace enough that his copy can't find any psychological leverage, being defeated off-screen.
70* ''Anime/MagicalGirlLyricalNanohaStrikers'' fanfic ''Fanfic/InTheService'' has Other-Wolkenritter and the Immortal Order-Wolkenritter, for the real ones. Not quite as powerful as the real deal, they are respectively psychotic and sociopathic.
71* ''Fanfic/SlayersTrilogy'' plays with this a lot:
72** A major plot point of Reflect deals with the characters facing "the worst within", but the worst within isn't an evil twin exactly so much as it is the result of the worst possible outcome for the character. Mirror Lina, for instance, is the result of what Lina would have become had she failed to defeat Shabranigdo in Slayers Classic.
73** Also used somewhat more metaphorically with some of the characters involved. Twoflower's authors notes, for instance, make it clear that The Goon is supposed to be what Gourry would have become had he not chosen in his backstory to accept people as they were.
74** While most of the alternates only stay around long enough in the first story to ensure that the character learns an important lesson, Naga's parallel manages to become a recurring character in the trilogy, and even undergoes some Character Development.
75* In ''Fanfic/HellsisterTrilogy'', Satan Girl is a duplicate of ComicBook/{{Supergirl}}. She's her sister's dark side's embodiment, possessing more than enough power to crack a planet in half but completely lacking morals or compassion.
76* ''VideoGame/KanColle'' fanfic ''Fanfic/{{Eternity}}'' has the Original Hull Abyssals, who are specifically resistant to Shipgirls' firepower, and their presence weakens the shipgirls who are based off of them.
77* ''Fanfic/EmpathTheLuckiestSmurf'' has a Mirror Universe in which Empath Smurf and Polaris Psyche meet a version of the Smurfs that are all red-skinned and all evil all the time, as well as a Gargamel that is basically good. The Empath of that universe is basically an evil sadistic prick who uses his telepathic powers to MindRape, whether that's with his enemies (like normal universe Empath) or his allies (like the Mirror Universe Smurfette).
78* In the ''Fanfic/HeroTheGuardianSmurf'' adaptation of "The Smurf Menace", Hero, Wonder, Hawkeye, Dempsey, and Abloec have evil counterparts of themselves among the Gray Smurfs. Gray Hero is a polyamorist who is married to both Gray Smurfette and Gray Wonder, who are both {{Depraved Bisexual}}s, and Gray Abloec is a SinisterMinister who doesn't seem to care if this kind of relationship is going on among themselves.
79* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10264509/406/Tales-of-Fairies Tales of Fairies Chapter 406]]'' has an evil clone of [[Manga/FairyTail Natsu Dragneel]] made by Zeref in one of his attempts to bring Natsu back to life. The clone wears leather, speaks fluently and is WickedCultured, acts like a remorseless pervert, and has a goatee on his face, and wants to ruin Natsu's life because of how much Zeref told him the real Natsu was much better. He tries to seduce Lucy, but the various difference in personalities leads her to realize he is an imposter and slam him to the ground before her friends arrive to warn her.
80* ''Fanfic/HowFriendshipAccidentallySavedMagicalBritain'': The shard of Tom Riddle bound to the Diary Horcrux treats his creator, the current Voldemort, a bit like this, in that he considers himself (and is for all intents and purposes) a completely separate individual from Voldemort, and also hates him and wants him dead for being a genocidal tosser. Tom and the twins claim that the original Voldemort is Tom's evil grandfather, and their friends accept that as Tom's "dark secret".
81[[/folder]]
82
83[[folder:Films -- Animated]]
84* Avatar and Black Wolf in Creator/RalphBakshi's ''WesternAnimation/{{Wizards}}'', although they look nothing alike. Avatar is short, portly, friendly, and fairy-like (minus the wings). Black Wolf is tall, thin, evil, and mutated. The only thing they have in common is that they're both bearded.
85* Jasper, the main antagonist of ''TheKingsBeard'', is the secret, long-banished twin brother of TheGoodKing Cuthbert, who's plotting to steal his crown.
86[[/folder]]
87
88[[folder:Films -- Live-Action]]
89* In the superhero comedy ''Film/SkyHigh2005'', one of the teachers tries to set up a colleague on a blind date with his girlfriend's sister. "What if I said it's not just her twin? It's her ''evil'' twin." "This Friday, you say?"
90* TheMovie of ''WesternAnimation/TheMagicRoundabout'' introduces Zebedee's Evil Twin, the ice-wizard Zeebad, who was imprisoned under the Roundabout itself. This would probably qualify it for CanonDisContinuity were it not for Tom Baker's wonderful LargeHam voice role. And then he became [[Series/TheDailyShow Jon Stewart]] in the [[CulturalTranslation American]] version.
91* Evil Robot Bill and Evil Robot Ted from ''Film/BillAndTedsBogusJourney''. If nothing else, it gave us the classic line (when E.R.Ted first sees Ted's girlfriend)... "I got a full-on robot chubby."
92* Carmen and Juni's robot doubles in ''Film/SpyKids1''.
93* ''Film/TheAvengers1998'': Mrs. Peel's clone, created by Sir August as his henchwoman. She is distinguished from the real Mrs. Peel by wearing a black leather jumpsuit.
94* In ''Film/InspectorGadget1999'', there's Robo-Gadget, an evil android duplicate of the real Gadget built by Claw. Aside from his telescoping limbs, all his gadgets are destructive things, like scythes, rotary blades, and tommy guns. Still, he's barely any more competent than the real thing. (Maybe even less so, seeing as the real thing is able to trash him.)
95* In the film adaptation of ''Literature/TheHighCrusade'' the aliens create a genetically superior clone to fight Sir Roger.
96* Ash's evil twin in ''Film/ArmyOfDarkness'', though later on he's easier to distinguish and no longer identical after one of Ash's more gory actions.
97* The Creator/BetteDavis movie ''Film/DeadRinger'': After the funeral of her brother-in-law (who had died of a heart attack), Edith Phillips learns that Margaret de Lorca, her rich identical twin sister, tricked the man Edith loved into marrying her (Margaret) instead. Edith kills Margaret and assumes her identity and lifestyle. Turns out things are [[TwistEnding not quite what they seem]] at the de Lorca household. Edith discovers [[spoiler: that Margaret and her sleazy lover had in fact murdered Mr. de Lorca]] and, realizing that [[spoiler: she will be charged with Margaret's crime]], learns that YouCantFightFate.
98* Davis previously played a fairly similar story in ''Film/AStolenLife'': Mousy painter Kate Bosworth is attracted to brooding lighthouse keeper Bill Emerson, but then her sexy twin Patricia shows up and nabs Bill. After they're wed, Bill leaves the country on a new job and Pat and Kate go sailing, when [[spoiler: a storm sinks the boat, Pat is drowned, and Kate is mistaken for her sister]]. Assuming Pat's identity, Kate eventually realizes that things at the Emerson manse are [[TwistEnding not quite what they seem]]. In fact, [[spoiler: Pat had been cheating on Bill and they were planning a divorce]], but after much soul-searching [[spoiler: Bill realizes Kate is Kate and she is the one he really loved all along]].
99* Olivia de Haviland in ''Film/TheDarkMirror'': A woman suspected of murdering her doctor boyfriend has an identical twin sister. When both twins have an alibi for the night of the murder, a psychiatrist is called in to assist a detective in solving the case. Through a series of tests, he discovers which twin actually committed the crime and in the course of his investigation he falls in love with the normal twin.
100* In ''Film/CitizenToxieTheToxicAvengerIV'', the Noxious Offender a.k.a. Noxie, is Amortville's evil counterpart to Tromaville's Toxic Avenger a.k.a. Toxie.
101* Subverted in ''Film/ScottPilgrimVsTheWorld'', in which Nega-Scott turns out to be [[spoiler: just like Scott apart from the red eyes and grey skin, and instead of fighting they just talk and decide to have brunch later.]]
102%%* ''Film/BloodRage''.
103* Jennifer Connelly's little-known 1988 film ''Etoile'' plays with this trope, with the main character developing [[spoiler: a literal split personality while performing in a mystical version of Tchaikovsky's "Swan Lake".]]
104* Real-life twins Mary and Madeleine Collinson portrayed Maria and Frieda Gellhorn in Hammer's 1971 film ''Film/TwinsOfEvil''. Frieda was made into a vampire by Count Karnstein. When Frieda was caught, Karnstein substituted the innocent Maria in the jail cell where she was awaiting execution.
105* Parodied in the horror spoof ''Film/ShriekIfYouKnowWhatIDidLastFridayTheThirteenth'', where the killer turns out to be the cop's "evil twin ''cousin''".
106* In the classic silent Swede horror film ''The Rat King'', somehow a rat manages to masquerade as the hero's girlfriend. [[AWizardDidIt (Don't ask.)]] She blows her cover by making the [[SexIsEvil grave error]] of wanting to have sex with the hero (it's the 1910s or so) -- he immediately [[{{Pun}} smells a rat.]]
107* In ''Film/ShockTreatment'', Farley turns out to be Brad's Evil Twin, separated when they were adopted by different parents: the lower class Farley became jealous of Brad's comfortable life and became a CorruptCorporateExecutive in response, seeking revenge by stealing Janet and moulding her into his new star. [[spoiler: Brad wins Janet back in the end, but Farley's still a CorruptCorporateExecutive.]]
108* ''Film/TheLoveBug'': The 1997 TV movie introduces Horace the Hate Bug, a malevolent version of the heroic Herbie.
109* The twist at the end of ''Film/TheInitiation'' is that the killer who has been stalking Kelly and murdering her sorority sisters (and assorted hangers-on) is not her father Jason as has been implied, but her identical twin sister Terry. Kelly, who has amnesia and cannot remember anything before age 12, does not even know she ''has'' a twin.
110* ''Film/AnotherMe'': Lila, Fay's [[spoiler:dead]] twin, wants revenge [[spoiler:for their dad letting her die and has come back intent on seizing control over Fay's life]].
111* ''Film/{{Malignant}}'' has a complicated case. [[spoiler:Gabriel is a parasitic twin (where an embryo does not fully separate into twins, but rather than developing into conjoined twins, one half maintains dominant development over the other) but also described as a teratoma (a type of tumor composed of diverse tissue types, such as hair, teeth, muscle and bone). In any case, he's AxCrazy and caused enough trouble to be surgically removed from his sister Emily/Madison, aside from the brain part that was necessary for her to function. Thus he turns more into a SuperpoweredEvilSide intent on [[SplitPersonalityTakeover taking over the body]].]]
112* ''Film/ClassOfNukeEmHighPartIIITheGoodTheBadAndTheSubhumanoid'': Dick is [[TheProtagonist Adlai]]'s, having been stolen at birth by Dr. Slag Ph.D and his cronies and raise into a merciless killing machine.
113[[/folder]]
114
115[[folder:Manhwa]]
116* In ''Manhwa/WitchHunter'', it gets more complicated because this manhwa does not only feature a pair of twins, but a set of triplets. The Bairong Empire has three {{Warrior Prince}}s, Lee, Yue, and Xing, and [[AsskickingLeadsToLeadership the strongest one will be the next emperor]]. Yue, the middle prince, is the strongest one, but he doesn't want to become the emperor, when his brothers are vying for that position. Under his depression and envy, the [[TheEmperor previous emperor]], [[ArchnemesisDad their father]], pushed Lee to become emperor by killing Yue. Obsessed with becoming the next emperor, and by extension killing Yue, Lee fell squarely into this trope. Then after a fierce battle and his failed attempt to kill Yue, Lee left the empire. Then Yue reveals his desire to travel the world, and performs a TwinSwitch with Xing so he can leave the empire and Xing becomes the emperor. But being emperor doesn't do Xing justice, nor he can bring it to people. That and several more processes of TraumaCongaLine [[BreakTheCutie break him]], and in his moments of mental vulnerability, he is on the receiving end of a GrandTheftMe from his ArchNemesisDad, making Xing this trope too for Yue. After four years, the triplets face each other again. This time Lee is the strongest and manags to knock Yue unconscious. Lee is actually aware of what happened to Xing, and plans the attack to gather the triplets. When Xing is dying, he requests Yue to kill him. When Yue wakes up, all he sees is Xing's corpse, and he swears that he will as Xing for the rest of his life, and he will kill Lee.
117[[/folder]]
118
119[[folder:Music]]
120* Music/DanielAmos's ''Music/{{Doppelganger}}'' explores the idea that everyone on Earth has a double: "For me, therefore, everything has a double existence / Both in time and when time shall be no more." Of course, those doubles were made perfect in the afterlife--meaning that [[HumansAreFlawed those of us here on Earth are the evil twins]].
121-->I'm his injustice sometimes \
122I am his wrong \
123It will be right again when \
124Christ rules over
125* Music/{{Kamelot}}: The album ''Music/{{Silverthorn}}'' has the unnamed protagonist framed for murder by his twin brother, Robert -- specifically, Robert murders the protagonist's wife, then convinces everyone via ThePowerOfActing that he is the protagonist and the protagonist is him. Initially, the twins were very similar, but their [[AbusiveParents father]] focused his abuse mainly on Robert after the death of the twins' younger sister, leading Robert to snap. It should be mentioned that according to some EpilepticTrees, Robert may be a SplitPersonality of his unnamed brother and not a real person.
126* Music/{{U2}}: The video for "Elevation" features Evil U2 (who are just the band members dressed like a biker gang). The video culminates with both the good and evil versions of the band facing off and trying to blow each other away with The Power of Rock while they perform the song's final verse.
127* “My Evil Twin” by Music/TheyMightBeGiants
128[[/folder]]
129
130[[folder:Myths & Religion]]
131* Literature/TheBible may be the TropeMaker, with Esau as the evil twin of Jacob. Interestingly, they were ''not'' identical twins. Also, they reconciled eventually.
132[[/folder]]
133
134[[folder:Pinballs]]
135* The MirrorUniverse Lt. Uhura in Creator/DataEast's ''[[Pinball/StarTrekDataEast Star Trek]]'' pinball game.
136[[/folder]]
137
138[[folder:Podcasts]]
139* New fans of ''Podcast/WelcomeToNightVale'' could be forgiven for assuming that Kevin is the good twin to Cecil's NightmareFuelStationAttendant... until they saw [[EvilIsVisceral the inside of Kevin's radio booth]].
140* ''Podcast/RandomAssault'': Slabflapper is one to Matt, in that he's literally a negative version of Matt. His skin is blue, like a film negative.
141[[/folder]]
142
143[[folder:Professional Wrestling]]
144* The Wrestling/HulkHogan-Wrestling/AndreTheGiant match on ''The Main Event'' in early 1988 was supposed to have set up an "evil twin" storyline involving referees (and real-life twin brothers) Dave and Earl Hebner. [[note]]Dave had been assigned to the match, but unknown to Hogan, Wrestling/{{Ted DiBiase}} had paid an unknown man to have plastic surgery to look like Dave and eventually count Hogan's shoulders to the mat when Andre tried to pin him. In the match's aftermath, Dave -- who had been detained backstage ran out and confronted his lookalike (Earl, who was as of yet unidentified), after which the fake attacked Dave.[[/note]] The WWF built heat for Earl through a {{Kayfabe}} "investigative report" in ''WWF Magazine'', made Earl out to be the Cain to Dave's Abel, citing such examples as cheating in school and mistreating his brother's girlfriend, all while posing as Dave. However, when Dave became legitimately injured in the aftermath of the Hogan-Andre ''Main Event'' match, the "evil twin" storyline was dropped and Earl "came clean."
145* Between ''[=WrestleMania=] X'' and ''[=SummerSlam=] 1994'', a story was setup by Ted [=DiBiase=]'s Million Dollar Corporation, claiming that they had found "''the Undertaker''" and have re-recruited him to their faction. This however came to a close once Wrestling/PaulBearer returned and claimed that he had found the ''REAL'' [[Wrestling/TheUndertaker Undertaker]], whom ''did'' return and defeated the fake Undertaker (Brian Lee), ending the storyline.
146* During the mid-2006, Wrestling/{{Kane}} was embroiled in a feud with an "Imposter Kane" to coincide with a ''May 19th'' angle that would [[BerserkButton set Kane off if anyone mentioned the date to him]], (as well as the release of ''Film/SeeNoEvil''). No one knew a thing about the Imposter except that he had a history of sorts with Kane that made him fear him. Ultimately because of how much it confused fans (and after [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu Kane lost in a squash match between the two at a PPV]]), the feud was scrapped and Kane promptly disposed of the Imposter on an episode of RAW and the angle was never mentioned again.
147* The first women's champion of Pro Championship Wrestling Chicago, Super J, had an evil twin in Fallan, who resented the fact she was born without superpowers. Super J wasn't ''completely'' good though, as she openly admitted the PCW Women's title was the one thing she'd compromise her moral values to regain.
148* WWE's the Wrestling/BellaTwins are TagTeamTwins but have split up occasionally, playing different roles. Normally Brie would be the face and Nikki would be the heel. Particularly noticeable on NXT when Nikki kept trying to make Brie pull a TwinSwitch against her will. In 2012 going into ''[=WrestleMania=] 28'' this time Brie was the Evil Twin, supporting [[CorruptCorporateExecutive John Laurinitis]] while Nikki supported Teddy Long.
149* When Wrestling/SinCara was caught taking drugs and had to go to rehab, [[Wrestling/{{Hunico}} another wrestler]] was brought in to portray the Sin Cara character for the time being. Once Sin Cara got better, WWE worked the replacement into a storyline where he was the imposter and was getting back at Sin Cara for "[[Wrestling/{{Mistico}} stealing his identity]]". The Trope came to a head when the Imposter started doning a black suit similar to the Original Sin Cara, giving himself the alias of "''Sin Cara Negro''".
150[[/folder]]
151
152[[folder:Puppet Shows]]
153* ''Franchise/TheMuppets'':
154** ''Film/MuppetsMostWanted'' features Kermit having a run-in with CriminalDoppelganger Constantine, the World's Most Dangerous Frog.
155** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4SZmIeGGts The Koozebanian Kermit]] sorta qualifies too, although he is only mildly evil and that mostly in self-defense.
156[[/folder]]
157
158[[folder:Radio]]
159* In the radio series by Kenny Everett, Captain Kremmen has a bionic double created to share his workload, but he accidentally has 40,000 volts run through his head while being activated and turns evil. He steals Kremmen's ship and goes to the Thargoids planet in order to help them conquer Earth ForTheEvulz.
160[[/folder]]
161
162[[folder:Roleplay]]
163* The ''Roleplay/LeagueOfIntergalacticCosmicChampions'' had interdimensional evil twins in the King's Interstellar Lethal Legionnaires, occasionally recurring group The Frank Conspiracy had a Dark Side & a Light Side, and the hero, Mr. Obvious, had a crazy twin brother, the hero, Mr. Absurd.
164[[/folder]]
165
166[[folder:Tabletop Games]]
167* In ''TabletopGame/ScarredLands'', the goddesses of Good and Evil are twins, with Madriel being the good twin and Belsameth being the evil twin. They often impersonate each other. It's usually Belsameth impersonating Madriel, but the reverse also happens sometimes.
168* In ''TabletopGame/{{GURPS}}'', Evil Twin is a disadvantage a character can take for additional points. The disadvantage makes the PC have to take the fall for things his evil twin does, as well as other characters thinking that the PC is crazy, or has a split personality. Interestingly, the Evil Twin has this disadvantage as well, and occasionally the Evil Twin will be blamed for something the PC did. And if you play an evil character with this disadvantage, you have to worry about getting the credit for your "Good" Twin doing things like saving orphanages.
169* ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'':
170** ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'' has a variation: There's an entire ''race'' called doppelgangers, who can shapeshift into any similarly sized humanoid-including other people.
171** ''D&D'' loves this trope. It also had the Mirror of Opposition, which spawned an Evil Twin of anyone who looked at it (the twin then immediately tried to kill and replace the original), the spell Simulacrum (a physically identical but less-powerful duplicate of the target, absolutely loyal to the caster) and its big brother Ice Assassin, and at least two different takes on the "magically created copy of you trying to kill you" in monster form, the nastier of which had the horrifying combination of being more powerful than the original and ''totally invulnerable to anyone else's attacks''.
172** One of the most horrific ways to create one is via the corrupt spell Searing Seed, found in the 300th issue of Dragon Magazine. It actually impregnates the victim, causing said victim to bring an unholy infant to term within minutes, inflicting a great deal of damage due to the incredibly fast pregnancy and birth. (It can be cast on a male victim, and if so, he takes even more damage, as a male body is not made for such a thing. The half-fiend infant grows to adulthood within minutes and becomes a duplicate of its "parent", its primary goal from then on being to kill the parent. (Assuming the victim survived, of course.)
173** Skulks are a similar race who are far more malicious, doing it to [[FrameUp frame innocent people for evil deeds]] then watching with sadistic delight as the victim they impersonated faces the punishment for whatever they did.
174** Hextor, the god of Tyranny and War, is the Evil Twin of Heironeous, the god of Chivalry and Justice. Not exactly a straight example, as they look nothing alike.
175* The Alchemist's Apparatus is an ArtifactOfDoom that originated in the ''TabletopGame/{{Ravenloft}}'' setting, can be used to make an Evil Twin of a person as only ''one'' of the horrible things it can do with its power over bodies and souls.
176* In ''TabletopGame/ChangelingTheLost'', when TheFairFolk kidnap mortals they leave behind Fetches, magical duplicates of their victims, right down to their memories. All Fetches are incomplete, though, meaning they lack ''something'' of the original. When that something is empathy or a sense of right and wrong, then you've got an Evil Twin. Things get more complicated if they merely lack your alcoholism or bitterness, though. It works both ways. Fetches don't know they're not the original person, so when someone shows up who looks like a monstrous version of them (and nobody else can see the monstrous things, and thinks it looks ''exactly'' like them, but a different age), who hates their guts and has strange magical powers, they are perfectly justified to think they are the victim of this trope.
177* In ''TabletopGame/{{Exalted}}'', [[AntiChrist Infernals]] can obtain an Ebon Dragon charm, Black Mirror Shintai, that lets them shapeshift into an exact duplicate of the target, from obtaining their abilities right down to having the exact same fate, along with developing Intimacies and a Motivation antithetical to their target's.
178* ''TabletopGame/MagicTheGathering'' has [[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=229965 this as a card]] as of ''Innistrad''.
179* ''TabletopGame/SentinelsOfTheMultiverse'':
180** And good twins, and plain old bizarro twins, when the [=OblivAeon=] storyline brings in lots of alternate universe heroes. There's morality flips like Apostate taking Fanatic's place and good-aligned versions of Akash'Bhuta and Ermine, identity swaps like Setback as Legacy and Sky-Scraper as Tempest, gender flips like a female Baron Blade (who is also a good version of him to boot), power flips like a Legacy that has super-intelligence instead of super-strength, even nationality/race changes like a female Native American version of Chrono-Ranger.
181** On a more mundane level there's Biomancer's demented flesh creations that impersonate[=/=]replace existing people, usually for some nefarious purpose.
182** One of the Dreamer's most powerful manifestations is an evil version of Legacy
183* In ''TabletopGame/Warhammer40000'', particularly during the ''Literature/HorusHeresy'' era, there ''may'' have been this situation with Alpharius and Omegon, Primarchs of the Alpha Legion.[[note]]Since a Primarch is a lovingly crafted superhuman, there were only 20 of them ever (21 if you count Omegon since they turned out to be twins, [[TheDividual but not everybody does]]). Since Omegon's existence was and remains one of the Galaxy's best kept secret, to anybody outside the Legion, the concept of a Legion with two primarchs was simply a contradiction of terms.[[/note]] Both worked together to try to reach ThePlan, working with the forces of [[TheCorruption Chaos]] with the goal of making sure it ultimately fizzled out. However, it was implied one followed this plan while the other started to to become more sympathetic to Chaos, and their relationship started to strain because of it, [[TheUnsolvedMystery though which was which was never revealed]]. Since the Alpha Legion is known for [[ComplexityAddiction lies, misdirection, and misinformation]], including at [[MindScrew the narrative level]], the whole situation or [[RiddleForTheAges if that was the situation at all]] is never revealed to readers.
184* This is a role in ''TabletopGame/BloodOnTheClocktower'', who mirrors a good player, and as the rules are set up, everyone will know a pair is in play, because one twin must die for the game to be winnable- but if the wrong twin dies, good loses.

186
187[[folder:Theatre]]
188* In the pantomime ''The Adventures of Sinbad'' by Tony Nicholls, Sinbad is abducted and replaced by his evil identical twin Binbad.
189* The horror movie spoof ''[[Theatre/FarndaleAvenue The Haunted Through-Lounge and Recessed Dining Nook at Farndale Castle]]'' features the revelation that the sinister lurking figure is the ''good'' twin, trying to regain the life her evil twin stole from her years earlier. At the climax, the two twins fight to the death offstage, and it is not immediately obvious which one survived...
190[[/folder]]
191
192[[folder:Toys]]
193* A recurring character in some iterations of ''Franchise/{{Transformers}}'' is Nemesis Prime, an evil mirror or clone of the iconic Optimus Prime.
194* A few variants used in ''Toys/{{Bionicle}}''. First, we have ''an army'' of corrupted Alternate-universe versions of Takanuva, and then we have an inversion with [[spoiler: "White Teridax", a "good" version of the main BigBad]].
195* Gigi Grant from ''Toys/MonsterHigh'' had one. Due to being lonely during the periods spent in her lamp between [[GenieInABottle wish-granting]] duties, [[Toys/EverAfterHigh Giles Grimm]] brought her shadow to life, creating Djinni Grant, and giving her a best friend. However, Djinni became jealous of Gigi for the happiness she created while leaving her behind, and decided to leave the lamp and sabotage the wish-granting process. She did this by whispering wicked suggestions to the Finder to give her control of the wishes. This gave her the nickname Whisp, and she planned to gain ultimate power by corrupting the next Finder, Howleen, by the time of the shadow-boosting eclipse. Her plan fails, and Howleen's last wish is for her to trade places with Gigi as the Lamp Genie. [[HeelFaceTurn This gives Djinni the fulfillment she had always wanted]], [[CoolAndUnusualPunishment but it also means that she gets a lot of lonely time between "shifts".]]

198[[folder:Visual Novels]]
199* ''Franchise/AceAttorney'':
200** ''[[VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightAceAttorney Phoenix Wright: Trials and Tribulations]]'':
201*** Played absolutely straight by the twin sisters [[spoiler: Iris and Dahlia Hawthorne]]. One's a BitchInSheepsClothing SerialKiller, and the other's a SheepInSheepsClothing NiceGirl. They look completely identical, right down to their hairstyles, and yes, they do pull [[TwinSwitch twin switches]]. [[spoiler: College!Phoenix is so certain Dahlia couldn't be a murderer because the "Dahlia" he knew was actually Iris, and Dahlia later pretends to be Iris during the latter parts of ''Bridge to the Turnabout''.]]
202*** In Case 3, Phoenix finds that someone impersonated him in the courtroom to give Maggey Byrde a purposefully bad defense. Maya theorizes that his evil twin "Xin Eohp" did it, until Phoenix shoots it down by pointing out that he's an only child. The doppelganger, Furio Tigre, is unrelated to Phoenix and [[PaperThinDisguise looks nothing like him except for similarly spiky hair]]. Sometimes Godot is the ''least'' blind of everyone in the courtroom...
203** In ''[[VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightAceAttorneySpiritOfJustice Spirit of Justice]]'''s Case 2, you discover that [[spoiler:Bonny de Famme has a twin sister named Betty, who masqueraded as her in court. That person you saw with Retinz understage who hates Trucy? That's Betty. The one who says she loves Trucy? That's Bonny. Betty's not really ''evil'', though, just [[{{Jerkass}} mean]]--while she happily aided [[ArcVillain Roger Retinz]] in a plot to humiliate Trucy, [[EveryoneHasStandards she had no idea that he planned to kill anyone]], and is horrified when she realizes she was an unwitting accomplice to murder]].
204* In ''VisualNovel/MysticMessenger'', Unknown/[[spoiler:Saeran Choi]], the BigBad who attempts to kidnap the [[PlayerCharacter heroine]] throughout the routes and wants to see the RFA destroyed, turns out to be [[spoiler:Seven/Saeyoung]]'s twin. The latter's route reveals that he's [[spoiler:more of a WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds who was brainwashed by the true BigBad, Rika, than truly evil]].
205* Played for horror in Chapter 3 of ''VisualNovel/SuperDanganronpaAnother2'': [[spoiler:Kanade turns out to be this to Hibiki, killing over 60 people including [[BadPeopleAbuseAnimals their dog]], [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness their band crew]], and even [[SelfMadeOrphan their parents]], all so that she could have Hibiki to herself]].
206[[/folder]]
207
208[[folder:Web Animation]]
209* The antagonist of ''WebAnimation/DusksDawn'' is one, formed after one of the De Noirs goes into the family library. He takes over the De Noir's son's body.
210* In ''WebAnimation/PimpLando'', it's inverted with the "Good Guitarist," a counterpart to series regular The Evil Guitarist. Pimp Lando's clone Evil Pimp plays this straight, though he's more of a [[PokeThePoodle petty evil]] than anything truly malevolent (he blows up an orphanage offscreen, but almost nobody is hurt, and other than that he just performs [[JumpScare Jump Scares]] and evilly chuckles.)
211* It's revealed near the end of ''WebAnimation/TheStrangerhood'' that Tovar had a twin, created by an accident with the time machine splitting his molecules into two. Sam the scientist describes them as "One was pure evil. The other, pure moron."
212* ''WebAnimation/MangaSoprano'': Ram's twin sister [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JyGWpEM6Z_Y Rui]] went out of her way to take what's precious to the former, starting with her now ex-husband. Later on, she showed up at the former's doorstep to apologize for it, but it was all an act.
213[[/folder]]
214
215[[folder:Webcomics]]
216* In Swan Eaters, there's actually an evil triplet, Ivan. Peter, the more simpleminded triplet, and Clover, his younger sister, who is chose as Olwen's apprentice instead of him are his favorite victims, and he often lusts for power.
217* ''Webcomic/LifeOfRiley'' features an early villain in Evil Dan, opposite of the main character Dan. Slightly subverted in that Evil Dan is even more of a moron than Good Dan, and has no real skills as an evil opposite.
218* ''Webcomic/KidRadd'' features an Evil Twin as one of a GoldfishPoopGang duo -- he serves as the titular character's ShadowArchetype later in the story.
219* The ''Sister'' arc of ''Webcomic/ElGoonishShive'' has main character Elliot get "cursed"[[note]]i.e. being zapped by a TransformationRay gun[[/note]] into a [[GenderBender female form]], then touch a [[GreenRocks magical diamond]] which separates him into his normal male self, and a female version, named Ellen, who has all of the same memories, experiences, etc. Believing that she's the embodiment of his "curse", and thus will disappear when it wears off in less than a month, she goes crazy and tries to become his evil twin in a desperate attempt to gain ''some'' sort of identity. [[spoiler: She was wrong about disappearing, and wasn't so good at the evil twin thing. She now lives as Elliot's twin sister, joins the cast, and is accepted by Elliot's friends and family against the initial predictions of others. An extremely rare case of a "clone" getting a happy ending.]] All that stuff you saw in that spoiler? [[http://www.egscomics.com/sketchbook/?date=2003-07-27 May not have been Dan Shive's plan to begin with...]]
220* Subverted in ''Webcomic/{{Pandect}}'' -- Ice and a man who is like a father to him bear a striking physical resemblance, leading Ice to self-consciously dub Rocko his evil twin.
221* Ginger from ''Webcomic/SugarBits'' is a moody, sarcastic, rather abrasive princess, who lives in a realm undisturbed by humanity known as Harmonia. She also has a seemingly malicious twin sister, Licorice, who suddenly appeared in Hansel(one of Ginger's friends)'s dream. While Ginger seems to be more calm and introvert, Licorice is dynamic and fierce.
222* In ''Webcomic/AgentsOfTheRealm'', TheMentor to the Agents, Jade Blackwater, has a twin sister Ruby, who serves as the villain (or at least TheDragon).
223* Good old-fashioned separated-at-birth actual twin Nale in ''Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick''. He's the head of the QuirkyMiniBossSquad (but not TheDragon, oddly enough), while his good twin Elan is a comically inept bard. Further, the members of his "Linear Guild" were deliberately chosen by Nale to be [[EvilCounterpart "evil opposites"]] of the rest of the good guys (though he does recruit a TokenGoodTeammate as a counterpart to [[SociopathicHero Belkar]]). Not to mention that Elan is ChaoticGood while Nale is LawfulEvil. Further parodying the trope, Nale has a goatee -- and his own actions have rendered Elan unable to grow facial hair. Lastly, Nale is a SdrawkcabName of Elan.
224** This also serves to {{Lampshade}} the silliness of the idea of an "evil twin", since no one who hasn't seen Elan and Nale together ever believes that, no, seriously, he actually ''does'' have an evil twin.
225--->'''Miko Miyazaki''': Wait -- you are serious? That is your actual explanation? "My evil twin did it"?
226* In ''Webcomic/GamingGuardians'', Ultima was a [[ShapeShifter doppelganger-demon]] who was permanently empowered by Scarlet Jester with a copy of Radical's powers, which also caused her default form to become a duplicate of Radical.
227* Depending on how you look at things, [[spoiler:April]] in ''Webcomic/CollegeRoomiesFromHell'' could be considered to be [[spoiler:her 'sister' June's evil duplicate.]]
228* Subverted in ''Webcomic/{{Melonpool}}'', in which the duplicate, Ralphie, is the good one. Also, the ''Melonpool''/''[[http://www.itswalky.com It's Walky!]]'' CrossOver used the Dup-o-matic on an opposing army, who then immediately began fighting amongst each other. This crossover led to the creation of 'Anti-Joyce', who was the opposite of Joyce in that she was sexually active, rather than prudish. Interestingly, the storylines would have long-term consequences in both series: Ralphie joining the crew in Webcomic/{{Melonpool}}, while the murder of Anti-Joyce in ''It's Walky!'' would lead to serious psychological (and later, legal) problems for the original.
229* Subverted in ''Webcomic/{{Concerned}}'', as protagonist Gordon Frohman's twin brother Norman Frohman is a highly-effective special ops agent working for the resistance. Since Gordon Frohman is Dr. Breen's biggest fan, wants to join the Combine, and is bitterly jealous towards Gordon Freeman, that makes him...
230* [[spoiler:Cloney]] from ''Webcomic/SluggyFreelance'' is eventually revealed as [[spoiler:Aylee's]] Evil Clone. There's also Alt-Alt-Torg compared to regular Torg.
231* Galatea in ''Webcomic/TheInexplicableAdventuresOfBob'' may not be so much an ''evil'' duplicate of Molly, as just an extremely [[CloneAngst angsty, volatile one.]] She did try to TakeOverTheWorld once, [[spoiler:but Bob appealed to her better nature and talked her out of it.]]
232* ''Webcomic/CaseyAndAndy'' has an entire parallel universe of Hackneyed Opposites, most notably Quantum Crook, the evil twin and nemesis for Quantum Cop. The same universe also features the Mime Plumber, arguably the ''good'' twin for the Mime Assassin.
233* ''Webcomic/DinosaurComics'' features an AlternateUniverse where all the characters have goatees, featuring an evil (eviller?) version of T-Rex and Utahraptor.
234* In ''Webcomic/GunnerkriggCourt'', the Nobodies from Zimmy's DarkWorld come in two flavors: faceless creeps or near flawless duplicates of people she knows. Though they are not evil [[TomatoInTheMirror (they don't even know they're duplicates).]]
235* ''Webcomic/BasicInstructions'' helps us to distinguish the good and the evil twin [[http://basicinstructions.net/basic-instructions/2006/7/9/how-to-prove-which-of-you-is-the-evil-twin.html in this strip]]
236* ''Webcomic/InstantClassic'''s arc, [[http://www.instantclassic.net/story.php?comicID=125 Brothers Donathan]], introduces us to [[spoiler:Xauthor, Author's evil twin, complete with [[BeardOfEvil a goatee]].]]
237* ''Webcomic/DeadOfSummer'' has an [[spoiler: evil clone of [[Music/TheProtomen Panther]]. This isn't revealed until the ''real'' one shows up to save the day.]]
238* ''Webcomic/IrregularWebcomic'' features the good alternate-universe version of colonel Haken.
239* ''Webcomic/PennyArcade'' put a [[http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2010/7/2/ Twisp & Catsby twist on it]].
240* The False Guenevere in ''Webcomic/ArthurKingOfTimeAndSpace''. In the baseline arc, she's the same as in the mythology -- Guenevere's identical half-sister plotting to take Arthur and the throne. In the contemporary arc, she's Guenevere's full sister Fasha, and probably isn't exactly ''evil'', although she may be a StalkerWithACrush. And in the space arc she's a clone, and again isn't evil, genuinely believing herself to be the real Guenevere. The one thing all three have in common is that they love Arthur and [[spoiler: don't care much for Lancelot, thereby allowing space and baseline Arthur to have a Queen who loves him completely while convincing himself that [[IJustWantMyBelovedToBeHappy he just wants Guenevere and Lancelot to be happy]].]]
241* Alexis of ''Webcomic/AMagicalRoommate'' considers her sister Alexandra ([[OnlyKnownByTheirNickname Better known as X]]) to be her evil twin. Of course, X isn't really evil, just anti-social and disturbingly fond of explosives.
242* In ''Webcomic/BobAndGeorge'', [[http://www.bobandgeorge.com/archives/001109c the Author's evil twin first appeared here.]]
243* In ''Webcomic/{{Freefall}}'', [[http://freefall.purrsia.com/ff400/fv00381.htm Sam fears a good twin.]]
244* Subverted in ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'', where it is revealed that [[spoiler: the twelve main trolls are Evil Twins themselves, and that they (and their universe) were created when the original troll universe (which was a paradise) initiated the Scratch.]]
245* Fan comic ''Webcomic/MassEffect3Generations'' doesn't play around and has all dead members of the Shepard's crew cloned by Illusive Man. [[spoiler: Kaidan, Thane, etc.]] all get a clone, with no explanation whatsoever.
246* In ''Webcomic/KnightsOfBuenaVista'', Mary thinks this is happening with [[spoiler:the man impersonating the bishop]], but it turned out the real man didn't have any brothers at all, and it's a magical doppelganger.
247* In ''Webcomic/RandolphItch'' the title character runs into his evil twin of all places at a [[http://www.gocomics.com/randolphitch/2016/07/25 police line]].
248* While ''Webcomic/AwkwardZombie'' hasn't shown this trope yet, Katie does briefly discuss it after posting a ''VideoGame/Prey2017'' comic:
249-->"If you ever have two of something, one of them is probably evil. It's how twins work, anyway."
250* ''Webcomic/EnnuiGo'': Xoltan claims to be one to Hashim, although his idea of evil includes things like swapping the stickers on organic and inorganic produce and not helping old ladies cross the street.
251* ''Webcomic/PhillerSpace'': Ephil Twinn looks just like Philler[[note]]except the two have slightly [[PaletteSwap different palettes]][[/note]] but is his complete opposite. {{Subverted|Trope}} in that Philler and Ephil are both morally grey.
252[[/folder]]
253
254[[folder:Web Original]]
255* ''TabletopGame/MagicTheGathering'''s [[http://www.wizards.com/magic/ official site]] did a theme week where most of the weekly articles were written by "evil twins" of their usual writers. Even the writer that's supposedly a supervillain; the twin is such a WellIntentionedExtremist, he makes [[Manga/DeathNote Light Yagami]] look like a TechnicalPacifist.
256* ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft'' info site Thottbot.com allows you to switch between ''Classic'' and ''Evil Twin'' themes (white background vs. black background, among other color changes), and the loading screen when switching to ''Evil Twin'' mode says "Growing goatee..." (while the loading page to get back to ''Classic'' mode says "Shaving...").
257* ''Encyclopedia Dramatica'' is this to Website/TheOtherWiki, with the former being a self-admitted parody of the latter that strives to be as [[BlackHumor offensive]] and [[CrossingTheLineTwice disgusting]] as possible.
258* Arglwydd in ''Literature/{{ARCHON}}'' lampshades this, saying "...It always astounds me how the primary antagonist being the protagonist's father, brother, evil twin or all of the above simultaneously comes as a shock."
259* Parodied in the ''Literature/WhateleyUniverse''. In one novel, Jade Sinclair tries to fix her [[HandWave Exemplar problem]] that's keeping her looking like an eleven-year-old ''boy''. She uses massively superpowered Tennyo as a model. Jinn Sinclair gets the upgrade.. even though Jinn is only a PK copy of Jade, currently inhabiting some ground chalk. Jinn pretends to be a clone of Tennyo, and (of course) insists that she is real and the real Tennyo is fake. No one is fooled. She is physically composed of ground chalk at the time.
260* The parody website ''Sev Trek'' subverted this in a cartoon where the crew of ''[[Series/StarTrekVoyager Voyager]]'' are duplicated by [[RecycledScript Yet Another]] [[TeleporterAccident Transploder Accident]]. However the duplicated crew are not evil, they're just more interesting.
261* But at least [[RedOniBlueOni You can always tell them apart]] by their clothes, right? [[http://wiki.rpg.net/index.php/File:MPost5023-b53f3a9139_o%2Ejpg Right?..]]
262%%* ''VideoGame/IWannaBeTheGuy'' and ''VideoGame/YouHaveToBurnTheRope''. The former, of course, is the evil one.
263* The '''Bert is Evil''' websites: Featuring images of the Muppet character Bert (of ''Series/SesameStreet'') PhotoShopped into pictures with the world's most evil people, including UsefulNotes/AdolfHitler, UsefulNotes/OsamaBinLaden, UsefulNotes/SaddamHussein and others. Played up as Internet humor.
264* ''WebOriginal/NotAlwaysWorking'' has [[https://notalwaysright.com/sisterhood-of-the-judgmental-rants/59983/ this story]], with two twin sisters who work as cashiers. The first one insults a poor customer, who reacts badly to the other sister when they meet later until the second sister explains what's going on and tells her twin off for being a JerkAss.
265[[/folder]]
266
267[[folder:Web Videos]]
268* ''WebVideo/LennyAndShinkosDisneySee'' has the Negaverse counterparts of the reviewers. Nega-Lenny, Nega-Shinko, and Nega-Sinko
269* It's AscendedFanon that [[WebVideo/AskThatGuyWithTheGlasses Ask That Guy]] and WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic are twins who live together. While the Critic [[PsychopathicManchild isn't]] [[JerkassWoobie exactly]] the picture of wholesome innocence, he's got [[SerialKiller nothing]] [[SlasherSmile on]] [[NightmareFuel ATG]]...
270* WebVideo/{{Shadazzle}}: After growing accustomed to the polite and posh Fred Flagglebush, we are suddenly introduced to his drinking, swearing, porn-watching twin brother, George.
271* In ''WebVideo/SevenSecondRiddles'', one murders his brother [[InheritanceMurder over inheritance]] and gets away with it by stealing his brother's identity and pretending ''he'' was the dead one, not his brother.
