Top 10 Best True Blood Villains

True Blood is arguably one of the greatest shows of all time, featuring some of the most outrageous villains viewers love to hate!
The Top Ten
Russell Edgington Russell Edgington is a vampire king over 3,000 years old who seeks to overthrow human society and vampire authority alike. Known for his brutal and unrestrained violence, he attempts to instill fear in both humans and vampires.

Russell was the best and worst thing to happen to True Blood villains. What I mean by that is his performance was so masterful that he became the standard by which all other future villains on the show would be judged.

In my opinion, all others have fallen short. From Marnie to the Authority, the Governor, Warlow, and Lilith, none of them have even come close to matching Russell Edgington.

Yeah... I'm sure his spirit will come back eventually, even if he can't return to the land of the living/undead! He's a classic!

Maryann Forrester Maryann Forrester is a maenad, an immortal creature who worships the god Dionysus and incites residents of Bon Temps to perform wild, destructive rituals. She manipulates people into losing control, causing chaos and suffering as offerings to her deity.

I found Maryann to be a better villain than Russell Edgington. People talk about the news anchor scene, but they must have a short memory, as Maryann pulled out a woman's heart and served it in a pie.

Not to mention, she brainwashed the entire town of Bon Temps, making them naked, participating in orgies, and worshipping her. She was also immune to vampire bites.

Maryann the maenad was the first villain on the show to take over Bon Temps, turning everyone into demons and having them participate in several rituals, including unbelievable orgies.

Sophie-Anne Leclerq Sophie-Anne Leclerq is the vampire queen of Louisiana, known for her calculated rule and focus on consolidating power through manipulation. Her rule becomes precarious due to her reckless financial decisions and schemes to control the vampire blood market.

Although this queen may not come across as malicious as some of the other villains, her irresistible personality was unforgettable.

Salome Agrippa Salome Agrippa is a vampire member of the Authority and a devout follower of Lilith, aiming to impose vampire dominance by promoting the religion of vampiric supremacy. She believes in Lilith's prophecies and leads efforts to revive the movement through blood rituals and terror.

Despite being a new addition to the series, Salome had viewers begging for her to be staked from the moment they saw her. Those desires grew with every episode, as Salome manipulated and seduced everyone around her.

Such an intriguing character and villain. She was the oldest vampire on the show (unless you include Lilith). I loved her storyline, and Valentina Cervi played her amazingly.

She is a 2,000-year-old megalomaniacal woman. I love her.

Antonia Gavilán de Logroño Antonia Gavilán de Logroño is a powerful witch with the ability to control vampires, seeking revenge for the atrocities committed against her during the Spanish Inquisition. She uses necromancy to wage a war on vampires, attempting to eradicate them completely.

The powerful wiccans almost succeeded in their plan to destroy vampires by unleashing a spell to make them walk into the sun!

Franklin Mott Franklin Mott is a vampire with obsessive tendencies who becomes fixated on Tara, pursuing her relentlessly and using intimidation and violence. His erratic and volatile behavior reveals his disturbed, dangerous personality.

This vampire may have been a sociopath, but he was hilarious in every part he played.

Lorena Krasiki Lorena Krasiki is a vampire who turns Bill Compton and becomes fixated on him, known for her sadistic methods and enjoyment of torture. She remains a menacing presence in Bill's life, relentlessly attempting to regain his affection.

How can anyone forget Lorena? She was obsessed with Bill, which made her very entertaining, to say the least.

Rene Lenier / Drew Marshall Rene Lenier, also known as Drew Marshall, is a serial killer who hides his true identity while targeting women who engage with vampires. His extreme hatred of vampires drives him to violence, making him one of the most dangerous humans in Bon Temps.

This charming, friendly guy was the last person anyone suspected of being behind the murders in Bon Temps during season one. But in the end, he revealed his true colors and showed everyone how insane he truly was.

Steve Newlin Steve Newlin is a former anti-vampire preacher who later becomes a vampire and joins the Vampire Authority, embracing the very life he previously despised. His transformation from devout opponent to enthusiastic vampire reflects his opportunistic nature.
Debbie Pelt Debbie Pelt is a werewolf with a history of violence and substance abuse who harbors a deep hatred for Sookie Stackhouse. Her jealousy and resentment ultimately lead her to commit dangerous and reckless acts.

This drug-addicted werewolf had viewers talking for months after the season four cliffhanger, where Debbie blew off part of Tara's head. It was one of the best cliffhangers ever!

And that brawl between her and her rival, Sookie, in season three - taking place in Sookie's bedroom - was great!

The Contenders
Eric Northman Eric Northman is a powerful and ancient vampire sheriff of Area 5 in Louisiana, known for his strategic intelligence and ambitious nature. His loyalty to his own kind and keen sense of self-preservation make him a formidable figure within the vampire hierarchy.
