“Creep” is not only an awesome Radiohead song, but is a word that defines being weird or strange. In my opinion, it also translates into the feeling of discomfort, like when you feel someone is watching you and you turn around and there actually is someone watching you.

Shudder.

Everyone can appreciate a good villain from time to time, but some of these television characters take scary to a whole new level. They are not just frightening — in fact, they are quite terrifying, incredibly disturbing and actually send chills down your spine.

Good television has the ability to creep you out beyond belief and Canada’s own Durham County, among others, does a spectacular job of this.

Durham County’s Season 2 finale airs Monday, Aug. 17, 9 p.m. ET, The Movie Network; 8 p.m. PT, Movie Central.
