Freddy Krueger hands down. I'm not sure which one got me into it but I know my favorite 2 out of the series would be A Nightmare on Elm Street and A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: dream warriors.

Definately Michael Myers. I love them all but everyone of them had a reason to become who they did, except Michael. He came from the perfect midwestern family. Nice home, great parents. For no reason he snapped. Pure evil incarnate....

My list of 5 in order are

1) Michael Myers 2) Leslie Vernon 3) Freddy Krueger 4) Leatherface 5) Jason Voorhees

I had to put Leslie Vernon as my number two... Been way too long nce we have had an original idea for a new slasher and I think he holds weight over them all but Michael. Wish they could have alot more Vernon sequels...

Questions like this are difficult to answer because I like different characters for different reasons.

But i think I will have to go with Freddy Kruger That b@$t@rd son of a hundred maniacs. Because of his mode of killing his victims by invading their dreams and the fact that he takes such sadistic pleasure in killing his victims.

Uhhhh I think this is pretty obvious for me. *points to SN, gnature, and Avatar* But if not Freddy.

Theres a difference between favorite horror character and favorite horror icon. Leslie Vernon is not a horror icon. Michael, Freddy, jason, Leatherface, Ash....horror icons. Guys like Vernon, the Collector, Chrome Skull, etc are cool but far from being icons yet.

Anyway, my ultimate icon is MYERS!
