Which Salem Villain Evokes the Most Fear?

Now that the three vile villains have finally made their escape and taken their terror to Salem, Days of Our Lives fans have their faves–and the ones they fear the most.

Each villain has his own dastardly resume–and none are above brutal murder or attempted murder. They don’t care who they hurt, but is one worse than the other? Soap Hub asked which villain Salem should watch out for most, and your answers seemed somewhat divided.

Evil Orpheus
Out of about 2,000 votes, 58% of you remember just how horrible Orpheus (George DelHoyo) was all those years ago. You’re sure he hasn’t changed and see he’s just gotten worse. He also has the most people he wants to hurt, so you know this won’t end well. For those who don’t remember Orpheus, he just seems creepier than the other two.

Crazy Clyde
A smaller 23% remember Clyde’s recent reign of terror and expect more of the same–if not worse. Besides, you can’t get his off-the-wall offspring out of your mind. You know what Batty Ben (Robert Scott Wilson) can do and think he learned from the master, Crazy Clyde. You may fear Clyde, but you’re also thrilled to see James Read back on your screens, especially after his masterful last scene a year ago.

Lethal Xander
The final 19% can never forget how chilling Xander (Paul Telfer) can be–especially when he nearly choked Nicole last year. Serena (Melissa Archer) confirmed his violence AND he had already served time for a murder rap. Xander is one serious bad Kiriakis and might even rival Deimos (Vincent Irizarry) in the evil department.
