#4 Carrie 

Stephen King is renowned for crafting some of the most terrifying tales available. His stories often feature a grand conflict between good and evil, weaving together elements of light, darkness, and justice with captivating intrigue. Nearly every Halloween, you’re likely to spot a version of Carrie, typically donned in her blood-soaked prom dress.

The character of Carrie White resonates deeply with anyone who has ever experienced insecurity, awkwardness, or a profound feeling of being an outsider who just doesn’t belong.

While a 2013 film adaptation starred Chloë Grace Moretz as Carrie White, it was Sissy Spacek’s earlier performance that truly brought a sense of believability to the role. She portrayed a character for whom you immediately felt empathy.
