The 16 Scariest Black Horror Story Characters

- By

Candyman (1992)

Like many of the movie monsters on the list, he’s absolutely scary, but a very sympathetic villain. The son of slaves, Candyman had his hand chopped off and replaced with a hook, had honey rubbed in all over his body and was stunned to death by bees as White bystanders watched him die in agony for falling in love with a White woman. His ghost kills those who dare say his name five times. It’s definitely one of the greatest “cult” horror flicks with a mainstream presence. And Candyman is not only the scariest, but the most popular Black horror film murderous monster. “Be my victim” still gives moviegoers the chills.
