So, I have been contributing to the forum for a few years, I think. As such, there were some candidates that I actually ended up hating, or at the very least disliking. I don't regret proposing these examples, but of course, I didn't feel that they either weren't written well, or they were just hateable assholes.

1) Chris Cleek: Yes, I know I brought him up several times already, but I really, really hated this character. I felt that he was poorly executed. Okay, so you have a seemingly affable county lawyer who turns out to be a perverted individual who kidnaps a feral woman and tortures her under the guise of civilizing her. I don't really like characters that are written as nice only to then have them turn out to be fifty shades of screwed up. Sure, it can work if executed well, but in the case of Cleek, no. That, and you're never given a believable explanation as to why Cleek is like this. I know I keep bringing her up, but I still think Ruth is better written, because you're actually given time to see her descend into madness, and she does have somewhat of a reason for her treatment of Meg, though it's inexcusable as I had explained before. Lastly, he leaves his own son to die at the hands of the Woman, and then trying to beg for his life.

2) Witch Queen: I disliked her, because she has no character besides her wishing to commit genocide on the human race. The film that she appeared in was pretty bad as well. Heck, I forgot most of the plot of the film.

3) Andy Evans: This will hopefully be the last time that I mention him, but I just really hated him as a character. He was a sadistic asshole who took delight in terrorizing Melinda, and he even tried to rape her again out of spite because his reputation was destroyed. The fact that he was heavily indicated to be a serial rapist makes it even worse. However, unlike Cleek, it was already established that Evans had the tendency of trying to get girls to have sex with him, so the twist that he had raped Melinda at the party actually works. It also helps that Melinda was written as being traumatized by the incident.

4) The Alice Killer: The Alice Killings is actually written more as a mystery story rather than a Creepypasta. Yes, I understand that most creepypastas are filled with mindless blood and gore for the sake of being edgy, but the Alice Killer is significant in that he's relatively tame in comparison to the other more well-known Creepypasta antagonists. However, I didn't feel as ensnared in the Alice Killer, because he hardly ever appears, except for a split second in which he appears with a moving garbage bag in his hand. Besides the fact that he's a nihilistic serial killer who thinks he's liberating people through death, I found him mostly uninteresting to read about.

I'm sure that I had a few more, but I can't think of any at the top of my head. How about you?
