Welcome fellow Horror Fans to the Horrors Online Horror Icon Tournament! I'm your host, Diesel 11 (many thanks to endo for allowing me to host, BTW).
I'll be pairing off horror icons, and you can vote for them in the above poll. Each one will be left open anywhere from three days to a week, depending on how many people vote. The winner will enter Round 2. Feel free to comment on it, too!
So to start: JACK TORRANCE VS NORMAN BATES

Sorry, meant to check on this earlier but my internet is ish.
Jack Torrence all the way for me. Norman Bates was creepy for sure, but Jack was maniacal. And, I can't help but see Nicholson as him in my mind and he beats Anthony Perkins for me, so win win.

Have to vote for Jack Torrance. He terrified me in The Shining.

I'm going with Norman Bates. A crossdressing lunatic with his dead mother in the attic? Yeah.

Yeah, otherwise it won't count. I personally voted for Jack Torrance. I think he's much better than Bates.

Also, I like how we can keep this all in one thread. That's awesome/

In the end, I have to go with Carrie. Her mother being nuts and realizing she had that power, then the prom scene and the ending. Pretty great stuff. Christine is great too, but not as good as Carrie to me.

(Also, I voted for Christine. I like both, but I think I prefer a killer car to a prom disaster. )
