#5: The Sanderson Sisters from Hocus Pocus

Considering how every group of female friends is composed of a blonde, a brunette and a redhead, this one is perfect for the ladies. These witches come from a little Disney film called Hocus Pocus. A 1993 film that focuses on Max, a high school student and a virgin, who lights the legendary Black Flame Candle in a fabled ritual thus, bringing the Sanderson Sisters back to life for one night on Halloween. »

You are walking home at night. It is cold and windy, and even though you know better, you take a shortcut down an alley. Your heart skips a beat when a tall, dark figure appears, seemingly out of nowhere. But it's not that human or humanoid you need to worry about; it's that unassuming lawn chair peeking out of the dumpster. You are taught to fear the boogie man, but what about those everyday objects that couldn't possibly be out to kill you? They aren't even alive. Well, items from these five movies may as well be, for all the chaos they cause.  Death Bed: The Bed That Eats Can we just take a second to enjoy that title? Death Bed: The Bed That Eats.

There are spoilers ahead for some of the films we talk about!

Aside from all the serial killers and ancient demons waiting to either leap out of the shadows and murder us or simply scare us into a weeping ruin, movies are also full of killer cars, malevolent dolls and rampaging animals to contend with.

Given that entire lists could be generated from those menaces outlined above, we’ll be dealing with more obscure manifestations of evil here. The sort of demonic objects you might win on The Generation Game if it were presented by the Devil, or the kind of unlikely scenarios you'd encounter if you were the star of a horror film directed by Benny Hill. »
