* Jessica Atreidies from ''Film/DunePart2''. Jessica becoming a sinister and manipulative cult leader after her FaceHeelTurn was pretty widely acclaimed by the fan-base, who found her new personality fascinating and making her both utterly terrifying and really cool.

** White Diamond and her Pearl, who are rather uninstalling with unnerving behavior and {{Non-Standard Character Design}} and have that much more presence because of it.

** ** [[HumanoidAbomination Alastor]], hoo boy. He may be an utterly {{sadist}}ic SerialKiller who gives everyone the heebie jeebies, but the combination of his [[SharpDressedMan style]], his [[RadioVoice iconic voice]], and impressive powers make him both terrifying ''and'' awe inspiring to watch. Especially when he [[GameFace shows his real face]].

** [[TheDreaded Zestial]] is a towering, spider-like demon tinged with black and neon green. He speaks in a [[SoftSpokenSadist gentle, yet menacing voice]], as well as with very archaic diction, due to apparently being one of the oldest sinners in the show, on top of [[AlwaysABiggerFish a likely more powerful overlord than Alastor]]. He is certainly powerful and feared enough for people in the street to '''set themselves on fire''' just to escape him...waiting for the list of what makes him badass? You just read it!

** Preed. He definitely qualifies as 'creepy,' but factor in his one-liners and eventual Manipulative Bastard tendencies, this is what you get.

* Anton Chigurh from ''Film/NoCountryForOldMen''. It's not for no reason that Anton Chigurh is largely considered to be the creepiest movie villain since [[Film/TheSilenceOfTheLambs Hannibal Lecter.]] Between Barden's nightmarish acting, his unique [[ImprobableWeaponUser choice in weapons and murder strategies]], the [[NarmCharm bad haircut]], and the fact that he spends pretty much the whole movie [[EvilIsCool running circles around the protagonists]], this is not the kind of bad guy you're going to forget any time soon.

* Griffith/Femto from ''{{Manga/Berserk}}''. Even as a normal human, Griffith is a narcissist willing to go to any means to achieve his dream. His stoicism and ruthlessness make him a force to be reckoned with. He successfully manages to wipe out countless foes, achieve nigh-impossible military victories, somehow managing to combine his child-like demenour with a bone-chilling, eery aura whenever he sets his eyes on a target. He gets outright nightmarish when he reincarnates.

* Dr. Septimus Pretorius from ''Film/BrideofFrankenstein''. Dr. Pretorius (Ernest Thesiger) is a CampGay MadScientist who grows tiny people in jars, does not so much tinker in God's domain as wage open war against him, dreams of creating a race of monsters and interrupts his grave robbing to hold cozy picnics with Frankenstein's monster in the crypt. To put it another way, this is a MadScientist who scares Dr. Frankenstein.

* The ''VideoGame/DeadSpace'' Series is solely created to be this if not a little over the top. The Zombie Aliens known as Necromorphs, attack and kill in such disgusting ways just the image of recreating these deaths could make even a fully grown man wet themselves. A game packed with jump scares, mystery and intense fear that will keep you awake at night.
