The name Stephen King conjures up images of horrific creatures, monsters, places, and stories, and some of the most enduring villains in fiction. These are beings of unimaginable evil that test the limits of the protagonists' will to survive, and some of these villains have gone on to become almost as famous (or infamous) as the writer himself. While many Stephen King villains are monsters of the human variety (serial killers, power hungry despots, nihilists, etc) his most memorable are the supernatural ones who use their dark powers to twist the orderly world around them into a special place of chaos and pain.Here are just a few of King’s best supernatural madmen and monsters.
