Evil Is As Days of our Lives Evil Does: Just How Bad Is Kristen Really?

Even a short list of Kristen DiMera’s crimes on Days of our Lives includes murder, kidnapping, rape, blackmail, and bribery. So the question of whether or not she’s actually evil seems redundant.

Days of our Lives Polling

On the other hand — she loves her daughter, Rachel! And she has feelings for Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) that some might describe as obsessive-compulsive disorder and stalking, but Kristen (Stacy Haiduk) insists on classifying it as love. Which is why over 2,000 fans have a split opinion on that question.

DAYS: Pay Attention

A majority 59% of you really don’t understand why we’re being asked. Have you been watching? And we don’t mean from the early days, back when Kristen lied to John Black (Drake Hogysten) about being pregnant with his baby, then hired lookalike Susan Banks (then-Eileen Davidson) to go to all her doctor’s appointments, give birth to a baby boy, and hand him over to Kristen. (That would be little Elvis, AKA EJ, by the way).

We mean just within the last couple of years. When she killed Haley (Thia Megia). Kidnapped Kate Roberts (Lauren Koslow)…and tried to bury her alive. Decided that Chloe Lane (Nadia Bjorlin) needed to be taken out. And you’re still wondering whether Kristen is a bad seed???

Days of our Lives: Fun Home

Who cares, 21% shrug. Kristen keeps things fun and interesting. Would we bother visiting Salem on a daily basis if there wasn’t someone evil in residence to keep stirring the pot? She’d better never, ever change. And if she does, it better be towards becoming even more evil!

DOOL: Sweet and Innocent

Kristen only goes bad when she feels threatened, an almost equal 20% of you defend. She is sweet as can be as long as she is getting everything she wants. Anyone who doesn’t want to face her wrath shouldn’t piss Kristen off, and then we won’t have any problems.
