2. Laura Victoriano - The Evil Within

“Laura, of course you couldn’t be dead.”

Laura Victoriano is the elder sister of main antagonist Ruvik. As a child Laura and Ruvik were trapped in a burning barn where she is presumed to have burned to death. It is later revealed through newspaper clippings that Laura survived the incident, but was severely injured and left in a vegetative state.

A distorted nightmare version of Laura featuring six limbs tipped with claws is a constant threat throughout the game. Her spindly limbs and the way she crawls along the ground give her a spider-like appearance. That alone earns her a spot on this list. Who wouldn’t be afraid of a giant demon spider? That is just all the more reason to set her on fire at every opportunity.

Her appearance is not the only terrifying thing about Laura. Like all horror game bosses, she is tough as nails and impossible to kill until late in the game. She shrugs off bullets like insects, and fire only slows her down. Getting caught by Laura triggers a death scene where she rips out the player character’s throat and drinks his blood. Yet another reason to kill it with fire!
