History Main / CreepyTwins

* Hansel and Gretel from ''Manga/BlackLagoon'' take this trope to [[UpToEleven a whole new level]]. While initially they are fairly distinctive (one is a boy, and one a girl) despite similar looks and personalities, it is later revealed that they [[spoiler:swap the roles of 'boy' and 'girl' around as they please; Hansel wears his sister's clothes, a long-haired wig (both the twins actually have short hair), carries her weapon, and takes on her voice and personality, while Gretel does the same with Hansel's personality. The twins' gender is never actually revealed, which just adds to the confusion.]] Not to mention they just ''love'' killing people, just because they can. They also like to "play" with their victims. Is it surprising that everybody in the anime compares them to the twins from ''Film/TheShining''? In the manga, "Gretel" even sings the tune that plays over ''Film/TheShining'''s end credits. They also actively practice {{Twincest}} and were made to work as underage porn stars in snuff films. It's highly suggested that they just... broke... as a survival mechanism. Not to mention their disturbing optimism which centers around the deaths of others, which they cling to even as [[spoiler:they die themselves]].

* Sakon and Ukon from ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'' take this to [[UpToEleven exteme levels]]. They usually share Sakon's body.

* ''VideoGame/PokemonBlackAndWhite'' gave us the Subway Bosses, Ingo and Emmet (Nobori and Kudari). Yet they are somehow very adorable, along with being creepy... {{Fanon}} obviously amps up their creepiness, ''specially'' via making them also {{Yandere}}s or CuteAndPsycho.

* ''{{WesternAnimation/Alma}}'': Two of the dolls in the toy shop are a pair of twin girl dolls in black dresses that move their eyes to look at Alma as she climbs up to grab the doll that looks like her. [[spoiler:Like all the other dolls in the shop, they're actually children trapped in the forms of dolls.]]

* [[Creator/MarvelComics Fenris (the collective name of Andreas and Andrea von Strucker)]] had superpowers, but only when in contact with each other. As such, they were often found holding hands. As if that weren't enough, [[spoiler:Andrea died, so Andreas had her skin tanned and made into a leather grip for his sword so that he could maintain his powers.]] Ick. Later, [[spoiler: Andrea was resurrected, so Andreas had the skin flayed from his arm and given to her.]] ''Those crazy kids.'' Then they both died but somehow are back together and running a night club for super villains. Yep still ''Those crazy kids''.
* At one time, ComicBook/{{Deadpool}} fights against two Britney Spears-esque twin sisters called "Mercy Sisters". They don't finish each other's sentences, but they sure are creepy.

* ''Creator/MarvelKnights Double Shot (2002)'' has Marco and Polo Grace, the main villains for most the miniseries. They are a pair of twins who are so addicted to plastic surgery that no one knows what their true faces look and their appearances are very disturbing. [[SiblingsInCrime They are also involved in murder, drug trafficking, arms dealing and prostitution.]]

* [[WonderTwinPowers Más y Menos]] from ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'' came off this way when they were under Brother Blood's MindControl. Normally they're a more ''friendly'' version of SingleMindedTwins.

* The Dee Dees in ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyondReturnOfTheJoker'' are pretty creepy with their evil Raggedy Ann looks complete with manic Joker-grins most of the time.

* The Skull Twins from ''Toys/LegoSpacePolice'', a mysterious pair of alien doppelganger criminals who wear skull-like masks. Since they look and identical and so little is known about them, it's ambiguous whether or not they are actually twins or if there are more of them.

** They were even creepier when they were younger, refusing to talk to anyone who couldn't tell them apart (which was no one) and blackmailing their thieving maid into playing with them.

* In ''VisualNovel/DreamDaddy'', Joseph's twin children Christian and Christie have been invoking it ever since their mother Mary accidentally gave them a copy of ''Film/TheShining'' instead of ''WesternAnimation/VeggieTales''. at the barbecue Joseph even tells them to knock off the "creepy twins schtick". They speak lines reminiscent of creepy children from horror movies like "come play with us", have dull facial expressions, and say creepy things. In Craig's route, [[spoiler:they even try to cut open River's stuffed toy Arnold]]. When not purposefully invoking the trope, they're actually fairly normal kids; in Joseph's route, you can actually get them to giggle along with their father if you egg them on and then toss them an obscure reference about ''Literature/ChildrenOfTheCorn''. Christie is actually a very nice girl when she's not with her twin brother Christian, as you find out when she watches you and Joseph bake.

* Jay and Elle from ''[[VideoGame/PuyoPuyo Puyo Puyo Tetris]]'' are an energetic pair of TricksterTwins, but their alternate voice set invokes this trope by having them speak in a dull monotone.

* The Twins from ''VideoGame/Outlast'' are a pair of twins who calmly discuss killing and eating you while you're right in front of them. Later, they actually attempt to do so.

* Gourd and Vex from ''TabletopGame/TheOthers'' are a pair of ugly, deformed twins who are largely responsible for the Hell Club's genetic abominations. They are consistently depicted in the artwork as close together, either holding hands or sitting in one another's laps.

* Two separate ''Manga/DetectiveConan'' cases include creepy-looking and creepy-acting twins:

** A subtle example in the Agent Training Program: The ''entire scene'' is populated by nothing but pairs of twins, hinting at its true nature.
** "The Twins", in the second and third movies. Though they'd be pretty creepy even if there was only one of them.

* The main characters of a creepy Japanese film called ''Wool 100%''. They're at least 60 years old, live in an isolated junk-filled mansion, and still dress the same as when they were teens (one wears only blue kimonos, the other green western dresses). Them coming to terms with their ItsAllJunk -- filled house starts when a little girl suddenly materializes from a ball of red yarn.

* Mu-rong Yin and Mu-rong Yang in ''Ashes of Time'', brother and sister, apparently. They are very hard to tell apart, one time a character realizes only in the middle of the conversation that he's talking to the other twin. Both ask the same hitman to kill the respective other. Turns out [[spoiler: they are two personalities in one body, eternally fighting]]

* The title character of the 2018 Portuguese BlackComedy ''Diamantino'' has identical twin sisters, both of whom [[ManipulativeBitch manipulate]], steal, and [[{{Jerkass}} physically and emotionally abuse him]]. Their selfish behavior also [[spoiler: results in the death of their father, and they claim [[BlatantLies it was a stroke]]]].

* The Twins from ''VideoGame/Outlast'' are a pair of twins who calmly discuss killing and eating you while you're right in front of them. Later, they actually attempt to do so.

* The [[Film/TheWickerMan2006 2006 remake]] of ''Film/TheWickerMan'' (starring Creator/NicolasCage) features a pair of creepy ''old'' female twins.[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_mW8mBzmHo]]

:: Their second appearance features them laughing, several seconds after rationalizing that something was funny. It wasn't actually funny, and [[MirthlessLaughter neither were they]]. No wonder Bolin was too scared to be on the run...

* In ''Literature/TheCaseCorneliaKarlsson'' there are the Wallin-twins who says that they share a soul and are AmbiguouslyHuman.

* Some people feel [[VideoGame/AnimalCrossing Timmy and Tommy]] fit this trope pretty well, what with the fact that they're always staring at you. Sure, Nook does too, but he's shown more than a neutral expression. (This is ignoring the fact that they help run the shop and are probably just making sure you have the service you need.)
