The Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette is a character not just with mere brown hair and light skin, but hair as black as midnight and skin pale as a ghost — possibly because they are a ghost, though it's not required. This black and white complexion contrasts visually and is interesting to look at, serving as a cue to a high contrast or even duality about the character and setting them apart from their peers. And it's dirt common among villains, creepy characters (especially vampires), and Goths. The reason is that pale is sickly, tanned is healthy. The paleness wouldn't be as visible without dark hair as a contrast. It's enough to suggest a tanning bed to would-be world conquerors. Who knows? Maybe regular trips to the beach might dissuade the Omnicidal Maniac from his schemes? Sometimes justified by Victorian Novel Disease, which practically codified the trope, hence its popularity in Gothic fiction. That said, this is still something of an alignment neutral trope. On the Dark Is Not Evil side of the equation, there's the Goth, Trickster, and Anti-Hero. Still, some of the more memorable examples of this trope are the likes of The Vamp, Blood Knight, and Wicked Witch. Oddly enough, the Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette is hardly ever The Big Guy or a bruiser, as most villains with this complexion complement it with haggard, sleep deprived eyes and near starved frames, perhaps to send the message that evil takes a physical as well as moral toll. If they are on the side of good, though, they'll usually be of The Lancer or The Smart Guy type. This is somewhat ironic, as Once Upon a Time, pale skin symbolized wealth and education, as the privileged could afford to work indoors rather than in the fields. (Also, it's very easy to tell if a pale person is sick; with a "healthy tan," one can hide it more easily.) While a Discredited Trope for quite some time, the increased popularity of the "natural beauty" and "1950's pin-up" in modeling means that the attraction to pale skin and dark hair is lately coming back into fashion. One thing worth noting is that, since only albinos can have pure white skin in Real Life (if you want to get really technical, they can't either, since the blood under their skin will tint it very slightly), having a character whose skin is literally milk white may land them in the Unintentional Uncanny Valley unless it's part of a highly stylised art style. Comics and cartoons have also been known to tint characters' skin tones pale green, violet, blue, or grey, as a variation on this aesthetic. Even in live action, a yellowish, or "sallow," tinge is not unknown. Very common among vampires. Often, these people look like Cesare, especially if they apply Excessive Evil Eyeshadow or have natural Creepy Shadowed Undereyes, and wear similarly monochromatic outfits along the Grayscale of Evil. Related to Creepy Loner Girl. Compare and contrast Aloof Dark-Haired Girl, Raven Hair, Ivory Skin, and Stringy-Haired Ghost Girl. Not to be confused with Undeathly Pallor. noreallife |

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow: Dracula has pale white skin and dark brown hair that is almost black. He's feared by practically every character in the setting, including The Devil himself, and for very good reason. Satan is also an example. He's as pale as Dracula, has long onyx black hair, and dark veins covering his body. In the sequel, it gets even worse, where he becomes an eight-foot tall hulking brute of an angel riddled with scars. Satan's daughter, Raisa Volkova, takes after her father with pale skin, dark hair, and a disturbing appearance. |

Laura Kinney a.k.a. X-23 crosses this over with Raven Hair, Ivory Skin. She's most commonly drawn with black hair and very fair skin and is often depicted as a goth. One of the other prostitutes in NYX specifically calls her "the creepy one" since no one knows her name, which certainly qualifies her for the "eerie" part. | |

Higashizawa Youdai of The World Ends with You is, considering the rarity of even Big Guys crossing over with this trope, most likely the only Brute example of a Pale-Skinned Brunette in existence. There's another example and that is Shiki's true self. |

Bleach: Ulquiorra Schiffer has bone-white skin and jet black hair and his colouring stands out from all other characters around him as a result. He's a symbol of nihilism and his lifeless pallor is part of his theme of not truly understand what it means to live. Zaraki's idol Yachiru, the very first Kenpachi and founder of the 11th Division, was an Ax-Crazy Blood Knight whose viciousness in battle was something Zaraki aspired to emulate. In battle, her long hair flowed free and her face would take on an eerie expression that would switch from unnaturally detached to psychopathic depending on how the fight was progressing. However, in later years she became the 4th Division Combat Medic Captain Unohana, famed for her beauty in-universe and viewed as the perfect Yamato Nadeshiko, and who always kept her hair neatly bound. Word of God stated Unohana was Soul Society's most beautiful woman and that he wanted there to be a shocking contrast between the two faces of her personality. |

Avengers: Age of Ultron: This is amped up particularly in the beginning with Wanda Maximoff before she's humanized a bit. She spends a lot of time in dark areas that exaggerate her pale skin and dark hair and make her movements and actions creepier. By the time she's a good guy, she's a great deal healthier looking, dyes her hair red, and dresses in brighter clothing. | |

In season 2 of Dexter, Dexter's girlfriend Lila is a pale-skinned brunette. Because they're all in sun-filled Miami, this leads Deb to speculate that she's "a gross English titty vampire". And when Lila turns out to be nuts, Deb describes her to the other cops as "pale as a fucking corpse." | |

Death Parade has The Dark-Haired Woman who zig-zags this trope. Considering her Mysterious Past and her role as an assistant to a Psychopomp, she certainly falls into this trope in the early episodes, and likely comes across this way to the human guests as well. However, Dark Is Not Evil, and as the show progresses she cements herself as being a Nice Guy and much more down to Earth than the rest of the cast…until her flashback sequence in episode 11, where this trope gets played straight again after her Despair Event Horizon renders her an Empty Shell. The scenes become very monochromatic during this sequence, she’s constantly shrouded in darkness, and the bags under her eyes coupled with her Thousand-Yard Stare really help to emphasize this trope. | |

Emily of New Moon has very pale skin (to the point that, especially when she's a child, most people who meet her assume she's delicate and will likely die of tuberculosis) and black hair. It contributes to most people seeing her as a borderline Creepy Child. | |

Masami Eiri from Serial Experiments Lain is this, with long, dark hair and pale skin. This complexion, combined with his slightly feminine face and use of female speech, makes him all the creepier. | |

Fire Emblem: Soren from Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance and Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. He's one of the protagonists, but his cynicism and utter lack of idealism occasionally puts off his allies. Noticeably, Karla of Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade is the only (female) ally with black hair in the entire game. Mind, this is a series with a tradition of having at least thirty-odd characters on the allies' side alone, and they are all very pale. Upon supporting, her personality is revealed to be an equal mix of Cloud Cuckoo Lander and Lady of War. Strangely for female characters in this trope, she is an undefeated fighter known as the Princess of Swords as well as The Rival to Bartre the Fighter, and there are absolutely no allusions to her being sickly or weak, though she does die of an illness years after the game ends. In the previous game, her daughter Fir continues the trait of having dark hair along with a few others—though, for some strange reason, Fir's hair is purple. Morphs all have dark hair, pale skin, and golden eyes. This unnatural appearance highlights their status as artificial beings. Fire Emblem: Awakening's Tharja is a Dark Mage with dark hair, who loves to dabble in curses and actively stalks the Avatar (regardless of the Avatar's gender). She is said (in the American version anyway) to have the darkest thoughts. Bonus points for having the pale skin despite hailing from a desert nation. Her daughter Noire can qualify thanks to her negative outlook on life and her Blood Knight split personality, but only if she has a dark-haired father, as her hair color's determined by the father. Fire Emblem Fates: On the Conquest side of things, there's Nyx, a shaman cursed into a child's body. She prefers living by herself and acts aloof to distance herself from people. Her backstory reveals that the reason she's cursed is that she was quite an Enfante Terrible in her childhood. On the Birthright side of things, there's Hayato's daughter Rhajat, a Dark Mage fond of curses and actively stalks the Avatar (regardless of gender, unless she's her mother). She's said (in the American version anyway) to have the darkest thoughts. If you noticed the similarities to Tharja, that's not a coincidence. Rhajat and Tharja are hinted to be part of the same reincarnation cycle, though who reincarnates into who is up for debate. Like Noire, though, she only qualifies if she has a dark-haired mother, as her hair color is determined by her mother. And yes, Tharja's hair color is an option, but only on the Revelations route where Nyx can marry Hayato. Her 'default' appearance (and the one she uses in Fire Emblem Heroes) also has dark hair. In Fire Emblem: Three Houses and Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes, Hubert is the main instance of this trope. Depending on the route and game taken he can be an enemy, ally, or playable character, but he will always play up other's perception of him as this trope for his own amusement. That said, he does make a note to drop the act around some allies, such as Bernadetta. In Three Hopes, Monica suggests his conformity to this trope gives him "the complexion of a coffin dweller." |

The titular Blue Exorcist, Rin Okumura, is Satan's son who wants to defeat his demon father. The black hair and pale complexion are more obvious in the manga than anime version, as the anime gave him some color in his skin and changed his dark black hair into a navy blue. | |

Naruto: Orochimaru goes beyond simply having pale skin — his is flat-out white, paired with long black hair. In a similar vein to Orochimaru, Sai has completely white skin and black hair. Quite a doozy, since Sai spends most of his time baring his midriff and his shirt is short-sleeved too. They make for a nice contrast to Naruto's blond hair and tanned skin, though. Most of the Uchiha clan have pale skin and dark (most often black, though brown or even blue-haired Uchiha exist) hair. |

Raven Branwen from RWBY, something that became clearer as the show's animation evolved. While there are plenty of light-skinned and dark-haired characters, Raven's not merely pale but paper-white. She's also one of the most dangerous and enigmatic people on the show, with even her own family being wary of her, and has mysterious and frightening powers. | |

In the series finale of Poirot ("Curtain"), Stephen Norton is a bird-watcher with raven-black hair and a quiet disposition. If this, along with his pale, white skin, doesn't sound eerie, then his Manipulative Bastardry and Mind over Matter techniques that can cause people to kill each other add to his eerieness and creepiness. In fact, this is an Adaptation Dye-Job of the original novel Curtain, where Norton has grayish silver hair, but with a black heart. | |

Evelyn Trevelyan in Walking in Circles has dark hair and is pretty pale from years living mostly inside the tower, but once she becomes Tranquil and her diet suffers for it, she turns even more paler and thinner. That, combined with her attitude during that time, causes most people to find her very creepy to look at. | |

Gavriel from The Coldest Girl In Cold Town is this in spades. Not only does his vampiric pallor and wild black tangles make him look haunted, but his off-kilter personality - his scattered thoughts, erratic behavior, poetic way of speaking, and unnerving way of moving - intensifies his eerie looks. | |

Harry Potter: Sirius Black fits this for most of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. When it's revealed that he's actually good, the characters basically stop mentioning his pale, waxy complexion. It's safe to assume that Sirius's skin lost its waxy look after he'd been out of Azkaban for a while. Considering he was also dirty and emaciated at the time, it was probably caused by his poor health more than actual paleness. Severus Snape. Harry always makes note of the man's greasy, black hair, sallow complexion, and hooked nose. Even as a child he was a scrawny, greasy-haired kid with pale skin and a natural talent for the Dark Arts. While in the films, he's depicted as pale skinned thanks to being played by Alan Rickman, in the books, he may actually have been of a darker skin complexion. Historically throughout classic English literature, particularly Gothic fiction and Gothic romance fiction, "sallow skinned" was often used as an euphemism to refer to characters with a darker skin complexion (usually Italian or Eastern European or generally non-white in contrast to British "proper" pale skin), often used to describe the "demon lover" trope commonly found in Gothic fiction from the mid-18th century to the early 20th century. Given how consistently Snape in the books has been described as sallow skinned, and how sallow skinned was how a lot of the Eastern European students from Durmstrang were described as, particularly Viktor Krum who's described with features that striking resemble Snape's looks, it is a fair implication that Snape in the books was dark haired but also darker skinned as well. Bellatrix, who, in the movies, is played by the pictured Helena Bonham Carter. And the rest of the Black family except Narcissa, who looks more like her husband for some reason. Tom Riddle was one in his youth, laminated by Frank Dillane and Hero Fiennes-Tiffin's portrayal of him in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, as a sixteen-year-old Tom and eleven-year-old Tom respectively. Both actors crank Tom Riddle's creepiness up. This, in turn, creeps Harry out, as he looks a bit like him. Rowling loves this trope. |

Supernatural: While haunting a hospital as a spirit, Dean meets a beautiful, black-haired, pale-skinned female spirit named Tessa, who turns out to be a grim reaper. The angry spirit who attacks a philandering professor in "Tall Tales" is this. The episode "Bedtime Stories" gives us two: the Monster of the Week Callie, and the latest vessel of recurring villain the Crossroads Demon. Ruby 2.0 and Meg 2.0 are both demons, occupying pale-skinned, dark-haired female vessels. |

Beyond Birthday from Another Note is also this by virtue of going out of his way to look like L. He's even creepier than L, skittering about on all fours, sniffing a girl's panties, and being a deranged serial killer. | |

Both Coira and Arpazia in the "Snow White" retelling White as Snow alternate between this and Raven Hair, Ivory Skin depending on how creepy they are at the moment. Both women are acknowledged to be very beautiful—Arpazia before she somehow becomes a thirty-year-old crone and Coira after she turns eighteen and comes into her own—but the mother's flares of temper and the daughter's talent for complete stillness and silence frighten people to the point that their beauty almost isn't worth it. | |

Tales of the Ketty Jay. Pirate Girl Trinica Dracken has white hair but otherwise plays this straight; her white skin and hair contrasted with her black clothing and contact lenses gives her an Undeathly Pallor that strikes fear into her crew, let alone her enemies. It's an Invoked Trope as she was once a great beauty, but having clawed her way up from being a Sex Slave Trinica thinks she's So Beautiful, It's a Curse, and would rather be The Dreaded. | |

Magiere from The Saga of the Noble Dead straddles the line between this and Undeathly Pallor. At her most normal, she has a chalk-white complexion (impossible given the amount of time she spends outdoors) and blood red highlights in her otherwise black hair (when her Superpowered Evil Side comes out, so do the fangs). Oddly enough, she had a rough childhood and developed a thing about superstitious peasantry. | |

Death the Kid from Soul Eater. He's a nice enough if eccentric chap, but he does have black-and-white hair, slightly creepy yellow eyes, and comes across as eerier than is the norm even for this series when he fights 'properly' or talks about gods, life, and death. And that's before you factor in his temporary insanity. | |

In Path of Exile the Witch has this look and is the most mystically inclined of the characters, levitating in her selection screen where the rest flaunt weapons. She's almost the most sinister and prone to use spells that involve draining life force, cursing enemies, and summoning undead minions. | |

As well as Morrigan from Dragon Age: Origins and Miranda from Mass Effect 2. BioWare seems to have a thing for this trope. Also, Dragon Age II's Merrill. Serves to support her All the Other Reindeer story that the rest of the nomadic Dalish are mostly dark-skinned blondes (or just dark-skinned in general) whilst she is this trope. |

Kagerou Project: Haruka Kokonose. It serves as a visual reminder that he is ill, and is justified by his frequent trips to hospital and the fact that he cannot participate in physical activity. He is actually a very nice person (if somewhat spacey and odd at times). Haruka's alternate self, Konoha, becomes this when he is possessed by the Snake of Clearing Eyes. Clearing Eyes, in contrast to the above, is much more in-keeping - to the point that his arrival in any given adaptation is almost always signaled by a shot of his face with Hidden Eyes, a Slasher Smile, or both. |

Invoked by Lilith Clawthorne from The Owl House as per Word of God. She started out with the skin-tone, but dyed and straightened the curly red-brown mop she had as a teenager (along with ditching her spectacles) for the express purpose of looking more imposing and matching the raven theme of the Emperor's Coven. | |

Fire Emblem Fates: On the Conquest side of things, there's Nyx, a shaman cursed into a child's body. She prefers living by herself and acts aloof to distance herself from people. Her backstory reveals that the reason she's cursed is that she was quite an Enfante Terrible in her childhood. On the Birthright side of things, there's Hayato's daughter Rhajat, a Dark Mage fond of curses and actively stalks the Avatar (regardless of gender, unless she's her mother). She's said (in the American version anyway) to have the darkest thoughts. If you noticed the similarities to Tharja, that's not a coincidence. Rhajat and Tharja are hinted to be part of the same reincarnation cycle, though who reincarnates into who is up for debate. Like Noire, though, she only qualifies if she has a dark-haired mother, as her hair color is determined by her mother. And yes, Tharja's hair color is an option, but only on the Revelations route where Nyx can marry Hayato. Her 'default' appearance (and the one she uses in Fire Emblem Heroes) also has dark hair. |

In Doctrine of Labyrinths, Kolkhis has black hair and very pale, bluish skin that makes her "look like the world's most beautiful corpse." She's also the go-to person if you want an assassination in the city of Melusine, and is in league with a blood witch. Vincent looks remarkably like her and has an unsettling tendency to get distracted by ghosts in the middle of conversations. | |

Avatar: The Last Airbender: This appears to be a Fire Nation royal family thing, along with the Supernatural Gold Eyes. True to form, they tend to be Royally Screwed Up. Mai — also from a prominent family in the Fire Nation, though not the royal dynasty — looks like this too, in keeping with her gothic Emotionless Girl aesthetic. The fearsome Bounty Hunter June. Toph Beifong also appears like this when Aang first sees her in a mysterious vision, but when he actually meets her, she turns out to be a tomboyish and non-eerie Little Miss Badass. The Legend of Korra — the Sequel Series — subverted this once again with Asami Sato. The creators were initially going for the aesthetic of a mysterious Femme Fatale, but they ultimately decided to make her a permanent addition to the True Companions once she became popular among the fans. Asami then became a Love Interest for Mako and finally for Korra herself. |

Harry Potter Bellatrix Lestrange, and a couple other Death Eaters, as well as young Lord Voldemort are villainous examples. Antiheroic examples exist through Severus Snape and Sirius Black, as well as a heroic example in Harry himself. This appearance is a plot point, just not in the way you'd expect. All the characters who have it are distant relatives of each other: their gothic looks show this connection. Notably though, while the Weasleys and the Malfoys are also distant relatives since both have ties to the House of Black, they have very different looks. The Malfoys are pale blondes bordering on albino and the Weasleys are redheads. |

Though heavily downplayed in the games themselves because we never see his face, the Halo novels describe the Master Chief as this. As a consequence of spending most of their time in their armor, the Spartan- IIs are described as almost painfully pale, and John himself happens to have brown hair. Completing Halo 4 on Legendary provides our one and only glimpse at an adult John's face, although only the area around his eyes are visible. | |

Juliet Salazar from Mike Carey's Felix Castor series, who has black hair, "black-on-black" eyes, and pure white skin: "the undiluted white of snow or bone rather than the muddy pink-beige mix that passes for white according to normal labelling conventions." Justified in her case, as she's a demon from Hell whose body isn't, technically speaking, an actual body. And in something of a subversion, she's not necessarily an evil demon from Hell, when she chooses not to be. | |

Moon elves, or Silver elves, in Forgotten Realms usually have black to blue hair and pale to icy-blue skin. At least one novel even lampshaded that the subrace visually is a perfect contrast to dark-skinned blond drow. They look the weirdest of whole elvenkind (except Avariel), but tend to be the most human-like mentally (approachable, curious, and active) and the least decadent. | |

The default appearance of the Scream Queens, though as a goth, Daffney's appearance is always subject to change. Prior to the team, WCW often used Daffney as the crazy screaming obsessive but also put her in fanservice roles too. MsChif more so enforced the trope just through raw abrasiveness. Draculletta and White Magic, Wrestlicious's Ghouls Gone Wild, are an even straighter case. | |

Noticeably, Karla of Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade is the only (female) ally with black hair in the entire game. Mind, this is a series with a tradition of having at least thirty-odd characters on the allies' side alone, and they are all very pale. Upon supporting, her personality is revealed to be an equal mix of Cloud Cuckoo Lander and Lady of War. Strangely for female characters in this trope, she is an undefeated fighter known as the Princess of Swords as well as The Rival to Bartre the Fighter, and there are absolutely no allusions to her being sickly or weak, though she does die of an illness years after the game ends. In the previous game, her daughter Fir continues the trait of having dark hair along with a few others—though, for some strange reason, Fir's hair is purple. | |

Star Trek: Lt. Cmdr. Data in Star Trek: The Next Generation was designed to be a bit eerie on purpose to keep him on the left side of the Uncanny Valley. Amusingly, some aliens think he's just a weird-looking human. In homage to Kirk's "rice-picker" in The Original Series and Blatant Lie regarding Spock in Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home, they tell some past humans in "Time's Arrow" that he's a "Frenchman". In at least one holodeck episode, he passes himself off as South American. Spock and most Vulcans (barring Tuvok and the reddish-haired T'Pol) in general fit this trope. Weyoun of DS9, or every Vorta, for that matter. |

Death Note has a few: L, the Hero Antagonist, is nonetheless a creepy, ruthless, and almost amoral character who is drawn with messy black hair and (at least in the anime) extremely pale, almost grayish skin. His appearance is likely caused by a lack of personal grooming, a terrible diet, and the fact that he rarely goes outside. Beyond Birthday from Another Note is also this by virtue of going out of his way to look like L. He's even creepier than L, skittering about on all fours, sniffing a girl's panties, and being a deranged serial killer. Teru Mikami, one of Kira's disciples, is an insane mass murderer who has long black hair and very pale skin. However, he subverts the "sickly" part of this trope, as he is very strict about keeping a healthy lifestyle. Ryuk, a god of death, is an inhumanly tall and skinny monster with bluish-gray skin and dark blue-black hair. |

Shego from Kim Possible was designed with this in mind. Her green highlights make her seem poisonous.

Louis of The Vampire Chronicles has jet-black hair and piercing green eyes, and his skin became white with the transformation into a vampire. He's the narrator of the first book, and the narrator of most of the rest has a big soft spot for him, so he tends to come off as more pitiable than creepy to the reader, but in-universe he's certainly this— especially to mortals. | |

Scream: In Scream 4, Jill's dark hair and pale skin are initially meant to evoke the image of an archetypal Final Girl, particularly with her similarities to her cousin Sidney. But after The Reveal that she's the Ghostface killer, an Ax-Crazy Attention Whore willing to go to any lengths to become famous, she rapidly reveals herself to be this. Scream (2022) does something similar with Amber, the False Friend of the heroine Tara who is revealed to be one of the killers. While her partner Richie, the leader of the murder plot, comes off as more genuinely angry and aggrieved, Amber is presented as Ax-Crazy, clearly relishing getting to kill people. (Appropriately enough, her actress Mikey Madison previously played a member of the Manson family in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.) |

Ashara Dayne from A Song of Ice and Fire is almost always described as a "haunting" woman with dark hair and violet eyes. Littlefinger apparently thinks he is one of these, as his only response when Tyrion threatens to send him to the Night's Watch, was to complain that the black uniform would only enhance this. Seems to be a genetic trait of House Bolton, as well. Their freakishly pale, milky eyes combine with this to make them about as scary looking as they really should be. |

Yuuko Ichihara of ×××HOLiC. Most color illustrations depict the rest of the main cast as these, too. All the main characters have pasty skin and, sans Kohane, dark hair in the manga, due to the way the art was stylized. The anime and official crossover illustrations depict both Doumeki and Himawari with healthier complexions, but Watanuki and Yuuko both remain very pale. | |

Final Fantasy: Final Fantasy VII's Vincent Valentine fits this trope quite well, although more in the Anti-Hero sense. This doesn't stop people from thinking of him as The Vamp, though... Apparently, Kuja in Final Fantasy IX was originally envisioned to be of this trope, but it was changed to make him look like a mini-Sephiroth. |

Game of Thrones: Northerners are known for their dark, almost black hair and pale skin and have a grim reputation among southerners. Lyanna Stark as an adult. Oberyn Martell even describes her in the Blu-ray lore as a "pale northern girl with ice running in her veins like all her people". Though beautiful, she comes off as eerie. Arya Stark has the Stark look, including fair skin and brown hair. Due to having the slightly unnervingly pale skin and dark hair of Northerners, she is regarded as less attractive than her red-haired sister, Sansa. However, with time, her appearance becomes the least eerie thing about her, as her behavior verges on Creepy Child territory, as she keeps a list of those who have wronged her and takes a sadistic pleasure in causing their deaths. Myranda, Ramsey Bolton's lover, has dark brown hair, is very pale and very crazy and sadistic. |

Due to flaws in various implants of Warhammer 40,000, all Raven Guards have dark hair and pale skin, regardless of what they looked like pre-surgery. Night Haunter also looked like this, as did his legion, being recruited from a world in perpetual darkness. Dark Eldar look like this. Again, justified: they live in another dimension where there is apparently no sun. They're also space vampires. |

Lust, as well as most of the other homunculi. Especially notable in the 2003 anime version, since the human body she was created from was Ishbalan, meaning she would have had significantly darker skin. |

Doctor Who: The Fourth Doctor Looks Like Cesare and behaves in an extremely alien manner. The Seventh Doctor also Looks Like Cesare and is an enigmatic Magnificent Bastard hidden under the veneer of an eccentric old dodderer. The Eighth Doctor - less in his live-action media and more in the Expanded Universe novels, where he Forgets to Eat and borders on The Ophelia. The Ninth Doctor. Christopher Eccleston dyed his hair black to invoke this trope. Notably, his most basic personality is Northern and chirpy, so the eerie appearance reminds the audience that he isn't human at all. The alternate-continuity Ninth Doctor, who has a Perky Goth-influenced look - complete with dramatic cape. |

Child of the Storm has Harry, who's got solid black hair (except for the skunk stripe at the front), and naturally pale skin that only gets paler in the sequel after his run-in with the Red Room (6 months of captivity and use as a brainwashed Winter Soldier type assassin will do that to you). He's also got an increasingly eerie sense of being a little too graceful, a little too aware, a little too everything, in fact, to be human - and that's before the traumatic experiences and proclivity for radiating ominous psychic power are taken into account. | |

A Court of Thorns and Roses: Rhysand has jet black hair and is noted to be unusually pale from his time Under the Mountain - with his shadow based powers, this just makes him more intimidating. In the second book on, though, this is averted as he's regained some color from being in the sun again. | |

In The Musical version of Wicked, Nessarose is almost always one of these, no matter the actress (the exceptions being when she is played as a washed-out-looking dishwater blonde or the actress is simply not of an ethnicity that makes this feasible). It makes sense, considering that she's fairly sickly and, being crippled, is confined to bed, and also sees the world in terms of black and white. Later, when she turns evil, she exchanges her blue-and-white outfit for a black one. | |

The Suikoden series has a rather memorable example in the fifth numbered sequel. Zerase is altogether too happy to deride the hero for his quote-unquote "idiocy" while deliberately withholding useful information. For extra tropaliciousness, her pale skin is even commented on in a hidden Furo Scene, which implies that she may or may not be undead, per the page heading. | |

The Legend of Korra — the Sequel Series — subverted this once again with Asami Sato. The creators were initially going for the aesthetic of a mysterious Femme Fatale, but they ultimately decided to make her a permanent addition to the True Companions once she became popular among the fans. Asami then became a Love Interest for Mako and finally for Korra herself. | |

Sirius Black fits this for most of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. When it's revealed that he's actually good, the characters basically stop mentioning his pale, waxy complexion. It's safe to assume that Sirius's skin lost its waxy look after he'd been out of Azkaban for a while. Considering he was also dirty and emaciated at the time, it was probably caused by his poor health more than actual paleness. | |

In The Count of Monte Cristo, Edmund Dantes is one of these, having dark hair and extremely pale skin. This is called attention to on several occasions, in which, as the Count, he's described as handsome but with an unsettlingly pale skin tone. The narrator explains that the years he spent in prison made Dantes very pale and prevented him from ever returning to his original tan skin tone. | |

In Fire Emblem: Three Houses and Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes, Hubert is the main instance of this trope. Depending on the route and game taken he can be an enemy, ally, or playable character, but he will always play up other's perception of him as this trope for his own amusement. That said, he does make a note to drop the act around some allies, such as Bernadetta. In Three Hopes, Monica suggests his conformity to this trope gives him "the complexion of a coffin dweller." | |

Tekken: Sergei Dragunov combines this trope with Icy Blue Eyes and Covered with Scars, and is regarded as a cold and calculating figure that creeps out both enemies and allies alike.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Willow at the end of season 6. Justified in that, by that point, she's become completely taken over by grief, revenge lust, and black magic. She gets better. Drusilla - a Mad Oracle who Angelus put through every variation on Break the Cutie before making her immortal so she'd suffer forever. This doesn't stop her from being as dangerous as the rest of the Fanged Four. |

Bêlit in Conan the Barbarian. While she was described as very pale in the original book, she really fits this trope in the Dark Horse adaptation where she is white as a ghost and very creepy.

Louis of Interview with the Vampire, as mentioned below under Literature. The film both increased it by letting us see his veins through his skin and generally putting us outside his own narration, and decreased it by turning his jet-black hair brown. It also turned Armand into this, where he was a cherubic young redhead (though no less creepy) in the books. | |

Fire Emblem: Awakening's Tharja is a Dark Mage with dark hair, who loves to dabble in curses and actively stalks the Avatar (regardless of the Avatar's gender). She is said (in the American version anyway) to have the darkest thoughts. Bonus points for having the pale skin despite hailing from a desert nation. Her daughter Noire can qualify thanks to her negative outlook on life and her Blood Knight split personality, but only if she has a dark-haired father, as her hair color's determined by the father. | |

Aubrey-Maturin: Definitely on the Dark Is Not Evil side of this trope: Stephen Maturin, co-protagonist of the series. His hair is black, of course, and his skin tone is almost invariably described as "pale" or "sallow". | |

In Mary Skelter 2, Jack gains access to the form of "Ripper Jack" after becoming a Nightmare, and while that way, it turns his eye bright pink ala the Blood Maidens' eyes, while the leaves on his hear turn white and all the vines/beanstalks all over him turn black. However, at the end of the game, Jack ends up creating a Marchen copy of his original Blood Youth form so that the Blood Team, and especially the Alice they have, still have a Jack to protect them while he teams up with the original Alice, now also a Nightmare, and when it goes into Ripper Mode, it becomes a far straighter example of this trope. | |

Dark Touch has the dark hair and the pale skin, as well as psychokinetic powers and a viewpoint that all adults in the world are potential abusers and must be stopped now. | |

The loyal warlock Merlin and the king's ward Morgana, from the BBC's Merlin. Though Morgana is a better fit for this trope than Merlin, since she's definitely paler-skinned (Merlin doesn't really have that "ghostly" complexion), as well as conveniently turning into a near-psychopathic villainess hellbent on dramatic angst and sorcerous revenge. | |

Books of the Raksura: The Ruler caste of the Always Chaotic Evil Fell have a distinctive appearance — black hair, bone white skin, and eerie beauty. They're also utter sociopaths with mind-control powers. | |

Vanitas from Kingdom Hearts, once you finally see his face. He looks like a pale Sora with darker hair and gold eyes, due to their mutual connection with Ventus. | |

Hotaru Tomoe from Sailor Moon is a Creepy Child who has both a planet-destroying soldier spirit and a demon bent on bringing "silence" to the world sealed inside her. Despite all this, when depowered, she's just a sweet girl who is misunderstood due to her fainting states and creepy looks. | |

Samarie has extremely dark hair coupled with a sickly pale skintone. She is also an obsessively devoted Stalker with a Crush and potential murderer, albeit she quickly regrets it. | |

Lt. Cmdr. Data in Star Trek: The Next Generation was designed to be a bit eerie on purpose to keep him on the left side of the Uncanny Valley. Amusingly, some aliens think he's just a weird-looking human. In homage to Kirk's "rice-picker" in The Original Series and Blatant Lie regarding Spock in Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home, they tell some past humans in "Time's Arrow" that he's a "Frenchman". In at least one holodeck episode, he passes himself off as South American. | |
