I prefer Chaney's as far as physical appearance goes.  I think he just looks creepier, and more damaged...his body looks literally incomplete.

Wow, wasn't expecting to see that many people put Nosferatu on their lists  ;)



I totally forgot to add that to my list. I definitely consider Nosferatu a Monster. :D

I still believe that the famous shadow on the wall is one of the creepiest thing ever.
