This is certainly closely related to CameBackWrong and CameBackStrong, but I think it is distinct.

Anime and Manga:
* ''Anime/{{Bleach}}'':  Hollows are human souls that were not sent to the Soul Society by a Soul Reaper, and turn into monsters that prey on the souls of both living and dead humans. They usually start with their own families, and can sometimes create other Hollows from their attacks on humans.

Literature:
* In ''Literature/DanteValentine'', Mirovitch, the headmaster of Rigger Hall, the BoardingSchoolOfHorrors where Dante was raised and trained as a Necromance, was a sadistic SerialRapist who was eventually killed when several of the students rose up against him.  [[spoiler:In ''Dead Man Rising'' it turns out they did this by [[YourSoulIsMine ripping his soul out of his body]] and trying to annihilate it, but it turns out that he managed to possess one of the killers and turn into a monster to hunt the others.]]
* ''Literature/TheDresdenFiles'': In ''Literature/DeadBeat'', Harry {{Boom Headshot}}s the {{necromancer}} Corpsetaker after she {{Freaky Friday Flip}}s with Warden Captain Anastasia Luccio, which forces Corpsetaker to become a roving spirit and the BigBad of ''Literature/GhostStory''.
