If i had Barbara Steele would have featured somewhere i'm sure. 
still it made narrowing stuff down a bit easier.  |
Some people might consider Anthony Hopkins' Dr Van Helsing in
Bram Stoker's Dracula to be a Horror Icon, others might like Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) from the
Scream films, Frank (Sean Chapman and Oliver Smith) rather than Pinhead from
Hellraiser, or Donald Pleasance as Dr Loomis in
Halloween.
Usually, a horror icon is the film's antagonist, but these lists are all about your personal favourites and opinions rather than an objective list.
