Carrie White

Carrie White was the titular villain of Stephen King's novel "Carrie" - as well as several films based on the story, although her mother is technically more of a true villain and Carrie acts as a prime example of a tragic villain - being driven insane by her mother's continual abuse and the cruel bullying of her peers.

Carrie also began to exhibit telekinetic abilities, which her fundamentalist mother saw as "witchcraft" and beat her for - struggling to control what she viewed as a curse the tortured girl finally snapped when she was tricked on the night of her school prom by vindictive students into being showered with pig's blood in front of the entire school, she imagined that everyone was laughing at her (in reality many of the students and staff were shocked by the incident, with only a few actually laughing): this triggered a psychotic episode in which she unleashed her suppressed telekinesis in a horrific manner - killing everyone in the gymn while burning it down.

Carrie proceeded to go on a rampage and kills her abusive mother after a climatic confrontation in which her mother brutally stabs her, despite finally freeing herself of her tormentors Carrie tragically dies from the wounds she recieved.
