The nine scariest monsters ever!

I went to a party last Saturday and there were clowns, very creepy clowns. Since it's October A.K.A Halloween month, I thought I could write a post about the scariest monsters of all time. So prepare to be terrified. 

9. Wendigo

This monster, like quite some others, started out as a human being. Native American legend says that the wendigo turned immortal and evil after taking up the practice of cannibalism. Wendigos are often described as tall and lanky creatures with fangs, claws and glowing eyes. Their only goal is to devour as many people as possible, because without human flesh they cannot survive. According to most people wendigos reside in forests and mountains. 

8. Ghost

Call me old-fashioned, but a murderous ghost still manages to scare the crap out of me. I mean come on, they can walk through walls and they show up where and whenever they want, that's scary. Of course there are certain measures you can take, like protecting yourself with rock-salt and iron, but those tricks do not always work. Besides, if your spirit is pissed off enough, he might be able to possess your best friend. Ghosts are even scarier when they don't do anything and just look at you or suddenly appear out of thin air. You could have some creepy stalker in your house and you don't even know about it. There are lots of different kinds of ghosts, like poltergeists, but let's face it: they're all scary as Hell.  

7. Demon

For those of you that have seen American Horror Story, let me remind you of Sister Marry-Unis. This nun possessed by a demon was charming and terrifying at the same time. There are different stories about how demons are created, but I prefer the one where demons are human souls that turned demonic after spending a lot of time in Hell. The thing that makes demons so freaking terrifying is the fact that they can possess people. They can literally be sleeping in your house and you wouldn't even know about it. Plus demons have something with skinning animals and that is truly creepy. Demons are evil geniuses (that's why I prefer the version of them being former human souls) and they live just to watch the world burn, kind of like the Joker from Batman. They always seem unfazed when you're threatening them and when they get angry, they make sure you pay for it. 

6. Witch

Again, skinning animals, that's creepy. Oh, and I'm not talking about the tree-hugging Wiccans, I mean the evil witches that worship Satan. Or voodoo priestesses, those are even scarier. You all know about the fact that witches are able to preform magic, that's creepy in itself. The way that they acquire this magic, however, is much creepier. They use human sacrifice, blood spells, human remains etc. They basically need to kill a few people before they can start torturing you with black magic. A voodoo priestess can make you do things you don't want to do and she can kill you by whispering your name through the keyhole in your bedroom door. Brr, I'd lock my doors at night, if I were you. 

5. Bloody Mary

I know that this is a ghost, but Bloody Mary deserves to be mentioned on her own and that's not just because she has a drink named after her. Legend has it that when you stand in front of a mirror at midnight, with a candle in your hand and you say Bloody Mary three times, she'll crawl out of the mirror to gauge your eyes out. Some people say Bloody Mary is the English Queen Mary I that comes to kill Protestants. Others say she is an anonymous victim of a serial killer that had her eyes cut out. Whoever she may be, darkness plus mirrors equal scariness. I do however like the South Park version of the legend. 

4. Evil Children

Children are cute, but for some reason they become extremely scary, when they are evil. Maybe it's the fact that they look like soulless dolls (I hate dolls) or that they are exactly they opposite of what they should be. I don't know, fact is, they are creepy, super creepy. They just stare at you not saying anything and you just know that they are plotting to kill you. Plus they are always unnaturally pale, seriously, that's not healthy! Didn't your mom tell you to eat all your greens? I think we can all agree on this one. Evil children are terrifying. 

3. Weeping angel

For those of you that know Doctor Who, know what I'm talking about and I'm pretty sure you'll all agree on this one. For those of you that are not Whovians, let me explain it for you. Weeping angels are creatures that resemble statues, angel statues to be exact. They can move incredibly fast, but only if they aren't being watched. If you encounter a weeping angel the trick is to NOT blink, because they cannot move if someone is watching them. Blink or turn around and you will most definitely be killed. There is an upside, though, they kill you in a friendly way. They send you back in time and feed of the years that you could have lived. A bit weird, yes, but also very creepy. 

2. Psycho

No, I don't mean the movie "Psycho", I mean psychopaths. Humans can turn into the evilest monsters you've ever seen and they are scary. Just think of Hannibal the cannibal. The scariest thing is that psychos are a real thing and they roam the Earth as we speak. Whether they eat you or lock you up and skin you, they are weird and creepy. They are humans and they are crazy, but they can pose as a friendly mailman or teacher. 

1. Clown

Freaking clowns. I hate them, they are scary even if they aren't evil. They are supposed to make people laugh, but everyone is scared of them. They are serious nightmare material. The funny thing is that because of the new season of American Horror Story (freak show), the Union of Clowns (yes, this is a real thing) wrote an angry letter to the public, because they felt like they were being portrayed as creepy. It made me laugh, because everyone thinks clowns are creepy. I don't know, maybe it's the white face or the fact that they always have a way to broad smile, but they look like soulless killers to me. Yep, clowns are by far the creepiest thing ever. 

Yours truly,
