The Scariest Female Horror Villains

When it comes to terrifying horror movie villains, the ones most often cited are men. Michael Myers, Leatherface, and Pennywise are just a few in a long line of horror legends. But although these characters tend to get the most attention, and are certainly responsible for many a sleepless night, they aren’t the only heavy hitters in the genre.

Horror, for as much as it’s been known to exploit women in the past, has leveled the playing field in recent years. Not only do women generally serve as the main protagonist in contemporary horror films, but they’ve served as some incredibly menacing antagonists as well. These are the scariest female horror villains to ever appear on the big screen.
