Top Ten Fictional Serial Killers
Dr. Hannibal Lecter is a character in a series of suspense novels by Thomas Harris. Lecter was introduced in the 1981 thriller novel Red Dragon as a forensic psychiatrist and cannibalistic serial killer. Intelligent, He can read you like a book before you have finished your sentence. He can get into your head quickly. He truly is one of the most entertaining fictional serial killers ever.
He's sadistic and blood-thirsty as well as incredibly intelligent. He is also extremely good at getting into your head. He totally deserves #1!
Hannibal the Cannibal... Surely deserved this spot.
Michael Myers is a character from the Halloween series of slasher films. He first appears in John Carpenter's Halloween as a young boy who murders his older sister, then fifteen years later returns home to murder more teenagers. ...read more. He actually has more victories than any other killer on this list. He kills because he feels like he needs to, not because it's fun or he thinks it's justified. He even gets away with it.
He has the face of an angel and the mind of a demon.
He should be at number 1
Every one knows Michael Myers the true Serial Killer and, know matter what you do he never dies
Freddie Krueger is THE BEST! The burnt face just gives me the creeps.
Scary face, nasty words, the dream killer's got it ALL! He deserves number 1!
Jason Voorhees is a character from the Friday the 13th series. He first appeared in Friday the 13th as the young son of camp cook-turned-murderer, Mrs. Voorhees. He became a killer because his mother was decapitated by one of the counselors in the first movie. Now he wants revenge on anyone who returns to the camp. He's not totally evil, he just loves his mother.
He's killed the most
Dexter Morgan is a fictional character and the antihero of a series of novels by Jeff Lindsay, including Darkly Dreaming Dexter, Dearly Devoted Dexter, Dexter in the Dark, Dexter by Design, Dexter Is Delicious, Double Dexter, and Dexter's Final Cut. This guy is a true SERIAL killer. No doubt Hannibal Lecter is a better killer but, he is not much of a serial killer.
"Let's play a game." What all do I really need to say?
This character was actually inspired by six real life serial killers. Jerry Brudos, Ed Gein, Ted Bundy, Gary M. Heidnik, Edmund Kemper, and Gary Ridgway.
Norman Bates is a character created by writer Robert Bloch as the main character in his novel Psycho, and portrayed by Anthony Perkins as the primary antagonist of the 1960 film of the same name directed by Alfred Hitchcock and its sequels. It's not his fault... His mother made him do it.
Patrick Bateman, is an American, serial killing, yuppie, villain protagonist, who debuted in the rules of attraction, by Bret Easton Ellis. ...read more.
The Joker is a fictional super villain created by Bill Finger, Bob Kane, and Jerry Robinson who first appeared in the debut issue of the comic book Batman (April 25, 1940) published by DC Comics. Credit for the Joker's creation is disputed; Kane and Robinson claimed responsibility for the Joker's design, ...read more.
Charles Lee Ray is a fictional character and the titular antagonist of the Child's Play horror film series. The coolest thing about this killer is that he transported his soul into the body of a doll so that he can stay alive.
He wasn't always this way. This is what he became after he was brutally murdered and had his hand sawn off. Some people have no humanity.
I like bet the Candy Man is made out of sugar because Candy is sweet!
Jeff the Killer is a creepypasta usually accompanied by a picture of a white face looking in to the camera smiling in an unsettling manner. The creepypasta is also usually accompanied by the term "Go to sleep". His story is very flawed and unrealistic if you think about it, but I still love it all the same. And his appearance combined with his catch phrase "Go To Sleep" really is spooky, so he does deserve some credit. I like him.
Notebook of death, shall I say more?
He's played by Lord Voldemort himself.
Oh, come on Hannibal is just a man who has been identified before AND caught, Red John is a Superhuman he makes NO mistakes, a true Supervillian with Psychic Powers and criminal genius.
He's awesome he has Supernatural Powers truly, He knew about the Names in Jane's suspect list 3 month before Jane even did and Jane is the one who made it!
"I'm saving a special mark for you Batman."
He was the child murderer in the German movie M. He was so elusive that the law couldn't track him. He had to be caught by the criminal underground.
Yoshikage Kira is the main antagonist from the manga JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Diamond is Unbreakable written by Araki Hirohiko.
Leatherface is a character in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre horror-film series and its spin-offs. He wears masks made of human skin and engages in murder and cannibalism, alongside his inbred family. A cannibal with a mask made out of human skin and a house full of decorations made out of human bones. He should be higher.
He was inspired by real-life serial killer Ed Gein. Gein was also the inspiration for Hannibal Lecter and Norman Bates.
I think he should be higher on the list. He's very realistic looking.
Chainsaw, cannibalism, flesh mask, what can be better?
