Most terrifying Dr Who monster?

[Mynameisthecatwhogotthecream]

As a child it was the cybermen, I think because they looked sort of human, as an adult it's those bloody weeping angels, looks like they are making a reappearance in this series

The Wirrn was the big insect thing from The Ark In Space. I recall green-painted bubblewrap in that story too!

For me it's the infected water people on Mars. Creeps me out every time I see that episode.

As a kid for me it was Daleks. As I am now older it's those Angels and the Cybermen

@angelopal

The one I found creepy was the one with kids with the gas masks asking are you my mummy.

Yep, me too!

I didn't like David Tennant episodes
Midnight
The Impossible Planet/The Satan Pit.

I still avoid those episodes completely.
Just horrible and creepy

I was born a couple of months prior to the start of Doctor Who, so I've had plenty of chances to be scared. My personal "worst" were the Ice Warriors (that gaspy speech...) and the Mondasian Cybermen, with their cloth faces. It was wonderful to see them return with the fabulous Peter Capaldi.

I forgot the Satan Pit and the vashtanarada. Those were creepy.

And in the one where they were all riding on the back of a star whale that they were torturing to keep moving, there were those creepy puppets whose faces would rotate to increasingly angry expressions.

I only watched doctor who as an adult so I missed a lot of the jumpy scary ones but omg Listen where its is there some one under your bed freaks me out. The whole episode really frightens me.

None of the Dr Who monsters & I loved the Darleks & wanted to be one as a kid

But the Sapphire & Steel monster who was man in a smart black suit, with no lower facial features. That one gave me gave me nightmares 😩

Daleks the first time round.
And the weeping angels.

The cybermats. When I was small I always slept with the blankets gripped around my neck so that if the cybermats tried to attack me, they would just get a mouthful of wool. I finally broke that habit by the age of about 35...

(More recently the weeping angels, and the small children with gas masks, but I suspect their impact won't be as long-lasting)

As a child the Daleks, Dr Who wasn’t Dr Who if it wasn’t watched from behind the couch with screeches of exterrrminate!

But now, the creepy dolls from night terrors, I hate dolls anyway but eeekkkk no!

Also not a fan of the rubber clone things

For me it's the infected water people on Mars. Creeps me out every time I see that episode.

O yes, I hated that, only ever watched it once.

The original cybermen

Autons

Sea Devils. I didn't paddle for years after they rose from the deep. Finally got over them and along came Jaws

@Gladioli23

The weeping angels and I remember being properly freaked out by the vashta nerada from the library episodes.

Yes both of these. That library episode freaked me out.

The weeping angels definitely..

The cutest is the adipose.. I literally fell in love with them lumps of fat lol

The old zoltarens were scary, much more menacing.

Original Davros

Weeping Angels and that scarecrow in the .David Tenant episode where he became human

Talons of win chan was pretty terrifying- Tom Baker

Seeds of Doom

Another vote for the giant maggots in some Welsh quarry I think. Also, people's skin being turned into green jelly (our TV was b/w so not sure how I knew they were green). Not sure if the jelly was part of the maggots storyline or a separate one.

As a parent, the Weeping Angels were the scariest but the child with the gas mask was the most disturbing.
