Crowley from Good Omens

In Good Omens, based on the book by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman, Crowley (David Tennant) is a demon who’s lived on Earth since the beginning of creation. In fact, he is the snake who originally tempted Eve with an apple in the garden of Eden. Crowley works opposite the angel Aziraphale to prevent the coming of the antichrist and the end of times, since starting to enjoy his cozy life on Earth.

The Beldam (Coraline’s “Other Mother”)

In the creepiest kid’s movie you’ll ever see, the Beldam (Teri Hatcher) is a creature that exists in an alternate world discovered by Coraline’s titular character. Posing as a more fun version of Coraline’s (Dakota Fanning) mother, the Beldam in its true form is a tall and willowy spider-like creature who kidnaps children and loves them obsessively until they die. The main physical difference between Coraline’s true mother and the Beldam in her mother’s form are the two shiny black buttons that cover her eyes.

Death from Sandman

In the DC comic series The Sandman, Death is both the end of life and the guider of souls. Unlike most personifications of death, like the Grim Reaper, she is a young goth woman dressed in casual clothes who also visits people as they are born.
