We all were really scared the first time we saw the Demogorgon. It haunted Hawkins, Indiana and we were sure that it had taken Will Byers from us forever. But to be honest, it isn’t necessarily the scariest monster out there.

For years, we’ve been haunted and terrified by all these creepy supernatural (and sometimes very real) monsters that lurk in our lives. From movies to books to even real-life serial killers, we’re looking at the scariest monsters that put the Demogoron to shame.

Are you more afraid of Jason Voorhees or the creature that took Will and Barb into the Upside Down? Well, you’ll have to wait and see how afraid you really are after you make it through this list. Because honestly? It is really scary.

So join us on this terrifying trip through monster after monster to see which can stand up to the Demogorgon and scare us all out of our minds.
