Voldemort the fourth scariest character

A survey conducted by Amazon has named Lord Voldemort as the fourth scariest children's character from a book.

Bill Sykes from Oliver Twist, Cruella De Ville from 101 Dalmations and The Childcatcher from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, beat Lord Voldemort.

Quote:

Amazon product manager Wendy Snowdon said, "They are the very stuff of nightmares. Genuinely scary villains stick with us from the first time we read the book as a child." The under 21s found characters such as the Grand High Witch from The Witches or Voldemort from Harry Potter particularly terrifying. Men found the mythical literary characters such as Gollum and The White Witch from The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe scary. But women found the bullies such as Bill Sykes twice as scary as the men.

When I initially started reading HP books... I too was very scared of the Dark Lord...

i am still scared of him😆

I was never scared of crabby old Voldy. I actually find the "high voice" kind of funny. 😆

Trelawney going into a trance in the 3rd Movie was scarier, I thought. The modified voice was macabre.

I did not mean the movies Mystica...

When I read the books... I was v. scared of Lord Voldemort...

In the movies, I got scared when Dementors were first shown...
