Dogs—we love ’em. But sometimes—just sometimes—they kind of freak us out. Frantically barking at a closed closet door? Weird. That unnervingly serious stare while you eat your curry? Uncomfortable. When they look like Hannibal Lecter? Yeah, that’s just straight-up scary. We’ve rounded up 13 dogs who look like our favourite horror movie villains. Read on…if you dare.
