Spooky season has officially arrived, and as Halloween approaches, it's time to celebrate all things eerie, sinister, and fabulously queer. The LGBTQ culture has long claimed horror as its own, with iconic characters that range from the eerie to the campy. So now, we’re putting the question to you: Who is the ultimate queer horror icon? There are plenty of contenders for the throne, each one a memorable character who lives rent-free in our nightmares and fantasies. Here’s a rundown of the top nominees vying for the title: from the delightfully twisted Frank-N-Furter and the vampy Elvira to the unhinged Baby Jane, the spellbinding Sanderson Sisters, and the ever-glamorous Morticia Addams. There’s also Carrie White, the killer doll Chucky, nightmare-inducing Freddy Krueger, and even Jareth, the enigmatic goblin king. Other contenders include newer icons like M3gan and the internet-beloved Babadook, plus classic villains like Pinhead, IT’s Pennywise, Eva Ernst, and Jennifer Check from Jennifer's Body.
