Animal Crossing’s Scariest Villagers

While Coco gained plenty of votes for being the scariest villager inACNH,plenty of other odd charactersalso earned nods of fear.Another common suggestion is Zipper T. Bunny, the rabbit who shows up to celebrate Bunny Dayand, while he’s not technically a villager, it’s certainly understandable why so many find him terrifying. The massive, staring eyes and constant smile make Zipper look like something out ofFive Nights at Freddy’s,and the fact that his event is universally loathed certainly doesn’t improve his standing in the community.

Another popular suggestion is Blanca, andit’s certainly not hard to see why the cat would be considered eerie: She doesn’t have a face. Her white coat, coupled with her lack of facial features, makes her look like some kind of awful specter who’s come to haunt the island and its inhabitants. Other recurring votes includecontroversial villagers like Barold, Beardo, Bella, and Jitters.

It’s certainly fun to figure out who mostAnimal Crossing: New Horizonsplayers would hate to encounter in a dark alley, but at the end of the day, even the scariest villager probably has a heart of gold. Coco may look terrifying on the outside, but she’s widely regarded asone of the kindest charactersin the whole game. Just goes to show that players can’t judge anAnimal Crossingvillage by their face.
