Voldy should be a little bit higher, but otherwise it's fair enough. Those characters are very scary. | |

I agree with the list as it is. All are amazing books with absolutely horrifying villains. I LOVE that Big Brother from 1984 by George Orwell is #1!!

Bill Sykes should've been further up... Hmm, Voldemort could've been a bit higher, but he's not that scary... Sykes is, though.
He's evil.And I'm eviler.

I think Voldie's scarier than Bill Sykes, but I've only seen the film so maybe he's scarier in the book | |

I didn't know any of the others. Oh...I know Oliver Twist! Never read it though. 
Shh...don't tell my reading teacher.
