10 Evil Horror Video Game Villains You Couldn’t Wait To Kill

And speaking of that sequel, things just went from bad to worse on the pure evil front with the arrival of Stefano.

A spooky, sociopathic serial killer, Stefano Valentini sees beauty and art in the murders he commits. After losing an eye taking photos on a battlefield, Stefano came to believe that true beauty could only be captured in the moment of death. In order to get that perfect shot, he seems pretty happy to cause the death himself.

For Sebastian Castellanos, this is another spoke on the wheel of misfortune his life’s become since the first game ended. With a dead daughter (or is she?), a failed marriage and a growing drinking habit, players will likely be crushed by how Sebastian’s life has turned out since they last saw him.

Stefano, vile at the best of times, is made all the more reprehensible by the torment and anguish he subjects the already downtrodden Sebastian to. From torture to mockery to setting a variety of monsters on the poor guy, Stefano’s cruelty gets very grating throughout the first half of the game.

By the time his concluding boss fight arrives, most players will be itching to teach him a lesson and send him packing.
