The 20 Greatest Villains Of All Time

14. The Evil Queen (Snow White)

The Evil Queen is one of the greatest villains in all of children’s literature. Snow White is a beautiful princess, known as “the fairest of them all.” Her beauty goes deeper than her pitch black hair, white skin, blue eyes, and rosy cheeks. Her beauty is defined by her complete kindness, and purity.

The Evil Queen hates Snow White because every time she looks into her magic mirror, and says the words, “mirror, mirror, on the wall, who’s the fairest of them all?”, she expects to see herself, but snow white always appears. She eventually turns herself into a witch, and gives Snow White a poisonous apple that makes Snow White collapse into a deep sleep – where she can only be awoken by true love’s kiss. The Evil Queen is a jealous, hateful, and spiteful villain, and a villain that will never be forgotten.
