12	!Weeping Angels (Tenth, Eleventh, Twelfth and Thirteenth Doctors)
13	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/angelsnarl_123.jpg]]
14	->''"In the sight of any living thing they literally turn to stone. And you can't kill a stone. 'Course, a stone can't kill you either, but then you turn your head away. Then you ''blink'', and oh, yes it can!"''
15	-->-- '''Tenth Doctor''', [[Recap/DoctorWhoS29E10Blink "Blink"]]
16
17	Quantum-locked creatures so ancient, even the Doctor doesn't know where they come from. As long as they are being observed, the Angels turn to stone. The "Weeping" in their name comes from their habit of holding their hands over their eyes so as not to accidentally see each other. As soon as they are unobserved, they move with SuperSpeed to overtake their prey. For nourishment, they'll transport their victims back through time and then feed on their lives spent in the past. If they're not feeling hungry, though, they'll just snap their victim's neck like a twig. One of the creepiest aliens in the history of the series.
18	----
19	[[foldercontrol]]
20
21	[[folder:In General]]
22	* AbstractEater: They feed on time energy, sending people back in time and consume all the years they would have lived in the present.
23	* AlwaysChaoticEvil: Though their usual method of "killing" isn't all that bad, they only employ it because that is how they feed. In their second appearance they find another, better source of nourishment... since they don't need food they proceed to act like the sadistic psychopaths that they are — snapping necks, playing mind games, and ripping out vocal cords. Why?
24	-->'''Angel Bob:''' For fun, sir.
25	** Possibly averted by the lone Angel at the end of [[Recap/DoctorWhoS33E5TheAngelsTakeManhattan "The Angels Take Manhattan"]], who sent Amy back in time to the same point as Rory when it could've easily done otherwise.
26	* AmbiguousGender: While this is rather appropriate for an angelic being, it only serves to increase the UncannyValley for these.
27	* AndIMustScream: Angels cannot look at other Angels because it triggers their quantum-locking functions. As long as nothing disrupts the line of sight of an Angel that has suffered the misfortune of locking eyes with its own reflection (which counts as another Angel) or its brethren, they will remain stone ''permanently''. Well, at least until they starve to death and corrode into dust.
28	* AngelicAbomination: One of the most bizarre monsters in the show, despite looking like stone angels.
29	* AssimilationPlot: The Angels can increase their numbers by converting anything holding an image of an Angel into another Angel, as well as normal statues.
30	* AstonishinglyAppropriateAppearance: At first glance, they appear to be statues that would be seen in a cemetery. Look away, and it's your funeral.
31	* BeethovenWasAnAlienSpy: Non-human example: [[spoiler:the ''Statue of Liberty'' is one of them.]]
32	* BizarreAlienBiology: Creatures of the abstract. They turn to stone when anyone is looking. Ultimate defence mechanism.
33	* BreakoutVillain: They're to the revived show what the Daleks were to the classic show. They actually ''beat'' the Daleks as the fans' scariest monster in a poll, and get a lot of appearances outside their own story arc.
34	* TheCameo:
35	** Some fake Angels appear in one of the rooms of the HellHotel in [[Recap/DoctorWhoS32E11TheGodComplex "The God Complex"]].
36	** There are a couple Angels held as part of the Cloister security in [[Recap/DoctorWhoS35E12HellBent "Hell Bent"]].
37	* CantMoveWhileBeingWatched: They are "quantum-locked", which means they can't move as long as they're being observed. But if you so much as ''blink''... they can get you.
38	* CreepyChangingPainting: More accurately a Creepy Changing Statue. The painting applies as well, as anything that bears the image of Angel becomes an Angel itself. Amy finds this out with a recording of an Angel.
39	* TheDreaded: They are one of the most feared species in the universe; even the Time Lords are frightened of them.
40	* EldritchAbomination: It is implied that they are, in fact, ''sapient ideas'' which have come to life to kill people. It helps that ideas of them (photos, visual memory) literally can come to life to kill people.
41	* EverythingTryingToKillYou: The implication at the end of [[Recap/DoctorWhoS29E10Blink "Blink"]] is that any statue is a potential Angel. [[Recap/DoctorWhoS31E4TheTimeOfAngels "The Time of Angels"]] has the Maze of the Dead full of statues which were all possible Angels, until eventually it's revealed '''all''' of them are Angels. Then in [[Recap/DoctorWhoS33E5TheAngelsTakeManhattan "The Angels Take Manhattan"]], '''every''' statue in existence is an Angel, including the '''''freaking Statue of Liberty'''''.
42	* EvilLaugh: Is not even recognizable as laughter, so much as horrible screeching. However, the baby cherubs have a very distinct, terrifying giggle, often accompanied by pitter-pattering footsteps as they rush their prey while their back is turned.
43	* FaceOfAnAngelMindOfADemon: Literally. They look like angels, with lovely human faces, when in fact they're sadistic monsters.
44	* FangsAreEvil: They show off fangs as they rush in to attack.
45	* FateWorseThanDeath: Depending on the perspective of the victim and how much of they have going for them in the present, it absolutely can be. In their very first appearance, where they "kill you nicely", the tragedy of what happens to their victims isn't downplayed, but the first one is actually quite content in the past. It's played dead straight in their second, where they kill most of their victims and partially reanimate Sacred Bob into a mouthpiece for the Angels. In their third, they keep humans in solitary confinement for their whole lives while repeatedly sending them back into the past to feed.
46	* FauxAffablyEvil: Sending people to live in the past, though not all bad, is only a circumstantial side effect of how they feed. If they aren't desperate for energy, they'll just violently snap your neck and enjoy it too.
47	** 'Angel Bob', who reanimated the consciousness of Bob (one of the clerics in "Flesh and Stone" and "The Time of Angels") to communicate drips with this, maintaining Bob's polite and diffident tone when communicating with the Doctor and explaining that a) the Angels are killing for fun, b) they're making Amy count down to her own death, also for fun.
48	* FemmeFatalons: The angels are genderless, but their statue forms sometimes look more feminine (they're generally pretty androgynous) and they certainly have claws which, if you are lucky enough, you might see reaching out for you.
49	* ForTheEvulz: The reason they give for making Amy Pond count down to her own death is "for fun, sir".
50	* TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou: Part of what makes the Weeping Angels so terrifying to viewers was the implication that the audience counted as an observer when determining when the angels can or can't move, as the Angels could often be seen quantum-locked when only the viewer was watching them. The rule was broken just once in [[Recap/DoctorWhoS31E5FleshAndStone "Flesh and Stone"]], but they obviously realised this sapped some of their mystique and they are never seen to move onscreen again in any of their later appearances.
51	* HealingFactor: As they starve, they will deteriorate in appearance, but give them a source of food (energy) and they'll be back to their traditional angelic appearance in hours.
52	* HoistByTheirOwnPetard:
53	** In [[Recap/DoctorWhoS29E10Blink their first appearance]], the Doctor tricks them into looking at each other, freezing them forever.
54	** In [[Recap/DoctorWhoS31E4TheTimeOfAngels their second appearance]], they try to draw energy from one of the omnipresent "cracks in the universe" to become a universe-devouring army of death. This backfires badly on them. The crack is "the end of the universe" and releases time energy which wipes anything it consumes out of existence. They drain all of the power from the ship to try and escape... which switches off the artificial gravity, resulting in them all being hurled into the crack and erased from time. That is, until [[Recap/DoctorWhoS31E13TheBigBang the universe was rebooted]], allowing for their return.
55	* HumanoidAbomination: Their "quantum-locked forms" look like human statues, until you look away and the abomination comes forth.
56	* ImplacableMan: An Angel will never stop hunting a victim when they have their eyes set on them. They're near impossible to kill, and little can keep them out or slow them down for good.
57	* KickTheDog: Angels will taunt and torment anyone and anything that looks delectable. In the case of the babies, it's PokeThePoodle, since they can't do as much harm.
58	* KillTheLights: They can drain power from lightbulbs so it's easier for them to move around.
59	* KingMook: The Angel-fied [[Art/StatueOfLiberty Statue]] [[WeaponizedLandmark of Liberty]]. It's so big that it towers most buildings in Manhattan.
60	* LightFlickerTeleportation: They will advance in the instance of darkness, as their quantum lock has subsided. It's made even more prevalent that they can move at very high speeds.
61	* LightIsNotGood: Angelic in appearance, demonic in nature. As of [[Recap/DoctorWhoS33E5TheAngelsTakeManhattan "The Angels Take Manhattan"]]: they can be anything... including cherubs with creepy laughs and bronze statues in parks... and the freaking ''Statue of Liberty''!
62	* LivingStatue: Partially subverted. While they certainly seem like this, they only appear as statues under observation. Since this makes it impossible to see them move, many would assume they're statues themselves. However, as indicated in [[Recap/DoctorWhoS33E5TheAngelsTakeManhattan "The Angels Take Manhattan"]], they can turn formerly ordinary statues into more of their kind.
63	* LogicalWeakness: Weeping Angels go into quantum-lock when perceived as a means of self-defense and can reproduce through images because "the image of an Angel is an Angel". Thus, mirrors can trap the Weeping Angels by [[HoistByHisOwnPetard exploiting their abilities against them]] because an Angel's reflection is basically another Angel and consequently puts the original Angel into quantum-lock. The Doctor uses this trick against an Angel in "The Time of the Doctor".
64	* MysteriousPast: No one quite knows where they came from, including the Time Lords. [[Recap/DoctorWhoS31E4TheTimeOfAngels "The Time of Angels"]] implies they were an idea that took on a life of its own.
65	* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: According to the Doctor, they are also known as the "Lonely Assassins".
66	* NeckSnap:
67	** Normally, the Weeping Angels kill by sending victims back in time and feeding on their residual energy... but should they not need to feed on a person's temporal energy... crack goes their neck. They have ''very'' strong clamping force that makes it near impossible to escape their grip. If an unlucky soul gets caught, they're either dead, or doomed to a struggle that will likely tear up their body.
68	** Worse, Angels like to play with their food and steal the consciousness of a person they killed, then steal the voice of the deceased and use it to lure others into a false sense of security, until they get to break their necks as well.
69	* NewPowersAsThePlotDemands: Each episode starring them adds new abilities, while sometimes ignoring their existing limitations.
70	** In [[Recap/DoctorWhoS31E4TheTimeOfAngels "The Time of Angels"]]/[[Recap/DoctorWhoS31E5FleshAndStone "Flesh and Stone"]], we learn in addition to having straightforward OffscreenTeleportation powers, the image of an Angel becomes an Angel, looking one in the eyes can cause a new Angel to grow in one's mind, and the Angels can partially reanimate a dead person to be their "voice". Somewhat justified in that the Angels in [[Recap/DoctorWhoS29E10Blink "Blink"]] were starving while these Angels are slowly feeding off the crashed ship and getting stronger, but the abilities still come a bit out of left field.
71	** In [[Recap/DoctorWhoS33E5TheAngelsTakeManhattan "The Angels Take Manhattan"]], the Statue of Liberty becomes a Weeping Angel. This seemingly means that any statue, even ones made of copper, can be converted into a Weeping Angel. (River says, "It's like they've converted every statue in the city.") It's also not clear how "the image of an Angel becomes an Angel" rule applies to all the postcards and other images of the Statue of Liberty.
72	** In [[Recap/DoctorWhoS39E4FluxChapterFourVillageOfTheAngels "Flux Chapter Four: Village of the Angels"]], they suddenly have the ability to isolate an entire town from time and space, while also connecting it to the present with a barrier that dissolves anything that goes through it. It is revealed that if someone gets touched by a Weeping Angel ''again'' after they've been sent back in time by another, they turn into stone and crumble into dust. They're also able to turn people ([[spoiler:including the Doctor!]]) into Weeping Angels and also change them back none the worse for wear. However, it's not clear which of these powers are inherent abilities, and which come from technology they've been given by [[ArcVillain their employers]].
73	** Averted in [[Recap/DoctorWho2013CSTheTimeOfTheDoctor "The Time of the Doctor"]], where from what we see they have their traditional powers.
74	* NightmareFace: They look very uncanny up until the point when they prepare to feed on someone's temporal energy — that's when they sprout monstrous fangs and bare a set of claws at their target.
75	%%* NightmareFuelStationAttendant
76	* NobodyHereButUsStatues: They don't hide as statues deliberately; they just happen to look like them when quantum-locked. Nevertheless, it is effective camouflage against the unwary.
77	* NoEyeInMagic: Looking them directly in the eyes allows them to create an image of an Angel in the vision centres of the brain... which will then come alive and out of the victim's head, killing them, if not somehow stopped.
78	* NothingIsScarier: Unlike the Time Lords, Daleks and Cybermen, the Weeping Angels' origins are a complete mystery, having existed for so long that the Doctor (being a Time Lord and incredibly old by human standards) calls them ancient. We never find out what they look like when they aren't quantum-locked, how they have learned space-travel, how they are capable of violating the laws of physics and they could be ''anywhere'' at ''anytime''.
79	* OffscreenTeleportation: Their explicit super-power, although it's more of a restriction, as they ''cannot'' move while someone is looking at them.
80	* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: They're called "weeping angels" because they happen to look like them; they're actually hiding their eyes to prevent staring each other in the eyes. The actual name of the species, if there is one, is unknown.
81	* OurGargoylesRock: They're not gargoyles, but their statue forms appear to be them in the right location.
82	* PetTheDog: The closest thing to a Weeping Angel displaying something resembling empathy we see is sending Amy to the same time period as the one they sent Rory to, so they can live out their lives together, when it could have sent her away to a different time period. Even this is debatable, as each angel may send people back by a fixed amount of time.
83	* RealityWarper: A minor example: there are limitations to what they can do, but they can defy several laws of physics.
84	* ScareChord: Their [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5QM-Csxqu8 Leitmotif]].
85	* ShownTheirWork: While Doctor Who's sci-fi is on the whole as [[SlidingScale/MohsScaleOfScienceFictionHardness soft]] as they come, the notion of quantum-locking appears to be grounded in a relatively obscure bit of real physics known as the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_Zeno_effect quantum Zeno effect.]] At the subatomic level, staring at a particle really does stop it from moving.
86	* SlasherSmile: If an Angel knows victory is at hand and its victims have no chance of escape, it flashes a horribly malicious grin at them.
87	* StaringContest: One where the consequence of losing is death.
88	-->'''Tenth Doctor:''' Don't blink. Blink and you're ''dead''. Don't turn your back. Don't look away. And ''don't blink''.
89	* StepIntoTheBlindingFight: Justified; they become "quantum-locked" and completely incapable of moving when being observed by other living things, so they've developed abilities that let them drain power from light sources when in statue-form, making it easier to approach their prey. Unfortunately, the darkness doesn't hinder their vision at all.
90	* StupidEvil: All angels are sociopaths, but even knowing who the Doctor is they'll go out of their way to piss him off for no reason other than to be a dick. They don't seem to understand that this might not be the best idea.
91	* SuperSpeed: They need only the time it takes to blink to dart forward and slay their victim.
92	* SuperToughness: Though the obvious logic would just be to smash them into dust as stone statues, they are a lot tougher than statues should be. A group of soldiers unloading on them doesn't even scratch them. It's somewhat justified in this case. It was a dark hallway and the muzzle flash from the bullet was lighting them up, meaning they were stone when the bullets struck them. The split second of darkness between shots caused them to revert to their natural form, then reform back into unblemished stone when the next flash occurred. Their natural defence mechanism can therefore double as a rather effective HealingFactor. Then we get to see their true form is very stonelike as well, so they're immensely tough all the time. As the Doctor says, "You can't kill a stone."
93	** WordOfGod from the Grand Moffat in ''Doctor Who Magazine'' is that, even if one were to smash an Angel to dust, the dust itself would remain sentient and malicious. [[ParanoiaFuel And if it were to get in your lungs...]]
94	* TakenForGranite: Whatever they are in their natural state, they turn to stone if looked upon. It seems they're like the Nestene, in that while anything plastic can be a Nestene, any statue can be an Angel; this was hinted at in the ParanoiaFuel last terrifying minute and a half of [[Recap/DoctorWhoS29E10Blink "Blink"]] and outright confirmed in their third appearance.
95	* TimeAbyss: They're as old as the universe, or very nearly. Rassilon himself calls them "the Weeping Angels of old".
96	* TomeOfEldritchLore: A mysterious author named Rastan Jovanich wrote the definitive book on Weeping Angels, full of their secrets. Eventually the knowledge [[GoMadFromTheRevelation drove him mad.]]
97	* TookALevelInJerkass: In "Blink", they're described as "The only psychopaths in the universe to kill you nicely". In later appearances like "Time of the Angels" and "Flesh and Stone", they don't do that, snapping their victims' necks instead.
98	* TouchOfDeath: The first time an Angel touches someone, they're booted into the past. If that happens and an Angel touches that person again, the victim petrifies and crumbles into dust. As this took place in a quantum extraction of two distinct points outside of normal time, it may only apply when the Angels cannot send the victim further into the past.
99	* {{Tulpa}}: The Angels' origins are [[MultipleChoicePast unclear]], but one book about them openly speculates:
100	-->''"What if we had ideas that could think for themselves? What if one day our dreams no longer needed us? When these things occur and are held to be true, the time will be upon us. [[TitleDrop The time of Angels]]."''
101	* TheVirus: Weeping Angels can convert any regular statue into more of themselves. Additionally, anything that depicts the image of an angel ''becomes'' an angel. This can include photographs, recordings, [[ParanoiaFuel the picture at the top of this page]] and the images formed inside [[EyeScream your eyes]].
102	-->"That which holds the image of an angel becomes itself an angel."
103	* VoiceForTheVoiceless: The Angels have no voices of their own... but they can tear bits of consciousness from a victim they murder and make it speak on their behalf.
104	* YourMindMakesItReal: Even if you perceive an Angel within your mind, it will gain sentience and possess you.

108	!!The Weeping Angels (Fifth, Eighth, Sixth, and Tenth Doctors)
109	[[EldritchAbomination Eldritch Abominations]] from the dawn of the Universe, which when observed take the form of stone statues. Scavengers of temporal energy they harvest from their victims, the Weeping Angels have fought the Doctor in several occasions.
110	* TheBusCameBack: Originally appearing in the First Volume of Classic Doctors New Monsters, the Weeping Angels returned in ''Doom Coalition''.
111	* EnemyMine: The Weeping Angels make a deal with refugee Time Lords including the Monk and Ollistra in New York City while another group of Time Lords back on Gallifrey are trying to escape the horrors of the Time War on the horizon.
112	* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: A key plot detail of “Albie’s Angels” is the notion of two Angels being in love; [[spoiler:one Angel gives the Doctor and Liv assistance because its lover is currently trapped in the past]].
113	* [[HoistByHisOwnPetard Hoist By Their Own Petard]]: In “[[Recap/BigFinishDoctorWhoCDNMV1FallenAngels Fallen Angels]]”, the Fifth Doctor uses the Angels’ superior night vision against them by [[spoiler:trapping them in a secret chamber under the Vatican with a series of mirrors set up, ensuring that the Angels will be forced to look at each other’s reflections even when it’s too dark for anyone else to see what’s happening]].
114	* MundaneUtility: In “Albie’s Angels”, a trapped Weeping Angel is being used to [[spoiler:essentially order rare records; people are sent back in time with the order forms, and orders are placed for said records while they’re still cheap so they can be kept in storage until the time when they were originally ordered]].

119	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/20131106_180359_3.jpg]]
120	Smaller, adolescent versions of the Weeping Angels that resemble cherub statues, instead of the normal variety.
121	----
122	* AdorableAbomination: They look like cute little baby Cupids, but they're just as alien and monstrous as their angelic-looking counterparts.
123	* CreepyChild: They look like cherubs, and when not looked at they make little footsteps and giggle.
124	* EnfanteTerrible: Baby Angels appear to be innocent cherub statues at first glance, but turn away and they will reveal gruesome looking fangs just like their full-grown counterparts. They haven't developed enough strength to send victims very far into the past, but often appear in clusters. They're also audible before attacking — you can hear their footsteps and creepy laughter — which may make them ''[[ParanoiaFuel more frightening]]'' than the adults. Worse yet, the cherubs are a lot smaller and harder to keep an eye on if you're a fairly tall person.
125	* GigglingVillain: Unlike the other Angels, they can be heard giggling if no one's looking at them.
126	* PokeThePoodle: They aren't as dangerous as their larger compatriots, but they try and get under the skin of their victims anyway.
127	* {{Putto}}: They tend to look like this.
128	* VagueAge[=/=]AmbiguousSituation: They're called "the babies", but it's unknown if they are actually Weeping Angels at a younger age than the other Angels we've seen and are the larvae of their species, or if they just look like they belong to or even be a different species.

131	[[folder:"Angel Bob"]]
132	!!"Angel Bob"
133	-> '''Voiced by''': David Atkins (2010)
134	An Angel who caused the Byzantium to crash to resuscitate its kin. Nicknamed "Angel Bob" by the Eleventh Doctor due to its tendency to use the voice of Cleric Bob to communicate.
135	----
136	* TheChessmaster: Masterminds a brilliant plan to revive its malnourished kin, by causing the Byzantium spaceship to crash into the planet so that its brethren can feed off on the radiation.
137	* EvilGloating: It loves playing mind games with the Doctor. At first it pretends to be the real Bob just to further unsettle the Doctor and his allies before revealing the truth. Then later it makes Amy count down the time until the Angel within her takes over.
138	* FauxAffablyEvil: Is a relentless murderer but is just as polite as Cleric Bob, the human that it stole the voice of.
139	* InSeriesNickname: The Eleventh Doctor nicknames him "Angel Bob", due to using the voice of Cleric Bob to communicate. This Angel accepts the name for himself.
140	* ManipulativeBastard: Is able to lure in clerics towards it by using their voices, where it then promptly snaps their necks.
141	* NeckSnap: This is its preferred method of killing its targets.
142	* VoiceChangeling: It demonstrates that Angels have the ability to literally rip out a human's conscience and use their voices to communicate.
