Villain Squad Tag: Build Your Dream Villain Team!

This idea originally came from a book-tube tag called 'Villain Squad'. WhittyNovels' Youtube channel is where I first came across this fun idea. Here is a link to her video, if you are interested: 


She is really funny, btw, so you should check her out! :)

Here is how to do this tag in blog form! Below are seven categories of villain and the seven baddies I've picked to be part of my squad. I am a HUGE fan of the 'bad guy', especially when they are complex. A good bad guy can steal the show (ahem, Loki), and I have always been fascinated by what makes people 'bad'.

So, befitting the season of monsters, bad guys, ghouls, and ghosts, here is my Villain Squad!


The Leader: Pick a leader to lead the squad.
Professor Umbridge- Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix



The Killer Smile: Pick a villain who’s just extremely attractive.
Loki- The Marvel Universe




The Loose Canon: Pick a villain who marches to the beat of their own drum.
Mister Dark- Fables Series



The Unhinged One: Pick a villain that isn’t playing with a full deck.
Nathaniel Sorrows- The Strange and Beautiful Sorrows of Ava Lavender

I couldn't find a picture for Nathaniel, but he slaughters birds because he feels like the angel living down the street is the 'real deal' and the birds don't deserve to fly- or live- any longer. So... yeah. Definitely a few cards short of a full deck.

The Redeemer: Pick a villain that’s on a path of redemption/would play both sides.
Jamie Lannister- Game of Thrones Series



The Evil One: Pick a villain that is just bad to the bone.
Mr. Croup and Mr. Vandemar- Neverwhere



The Once-Was-Good: Pick a villain that didn’t originally start out as a villain.
Jack Merridew- Lord of the Flies




Who would you pick to be on your villain squad? Leave your ideal squad or favorite villain in the comments below!

Happy scaring! And happy fall!
