Characters who decide to toboggan down The Dark Slide will have a fun time of it... at first. It starts small, maybe an Evil Makeover with Spikes of Villainy and Red Right Hand. But there's a nasty surprise at the bottom of this insidious slide; those who commit especially heinous crimes, abandon all of their humanity for power, or allow their inner darkness to bloom into a blight won't just grow tiny fangs or discover Evil Makes You Ugly, they'll find out Evil Makes You Monstrous. This is usually a feature of legends, both in real life and in stories. Basically, a guy, gal or even animal becomes so mean, malicious, and generally Evil that they transcend their mortal existence and become a monster of legend. A scourge on man and beast. After killing enough, the Serial Killer goes from a man into a force of nature that just. Won't. Die. The witch buried in the heart of the woods will rise from her grave and haunt it as a half-dead corpse until her spellbook is destroyed. The man who killed and ate his family out of hunger transforms into a Wendigo. The Creepy Child everyone picks on lets the hatred fester and ferment until she becomes a living poltergeist. The devil worshipper so taints their souls that they transform into a demon. Then again, the (mostly) innocent might suffer this fate because of a Curse or The Virus. In the most extreme cases the character will no longer be flesh and bone but Made of Evil. While it's unlikely the character wants to seek redemption, it's not impossible that a loved one from before the change can at least give them pause. Can also be caused through The Power of Hate. See also/compare One-Winged Angel and Scaled Up. The Punishment is related, but the transformation into a monster is forced by an outside faction. Contrast Power-Upgrading Deformation, where monstrousness makes you powerful. Compare with Cute Is Evil where cuteness is the warning and Evil Tainted the Place, where a location becomes bad because of something that happened there. Contrast with Murder Into Malevolence wherein an innocent turns evil after a nasty demise. |

Hunter: The Vigil: Slashers are people, especially fallen Hunters, who have done such evil things that their depravity has warped them and given them special abilities to help them kill. The "Freak" and "Mutant" varieties are the most physically monstrous; others might look disarmingly normal on the outside. | |

Chucky from the Child's Play movies. Charles Lee Ray was actually a Tall, Dark, and Handsome man before his death and the voodoo ritual that turned him into a doll, with long hair and a square jaw, albeit criminally insane. The more time he spends in the Good Guy doll, the more evil the doll looks (as well as slowly mutating from plastic to actual flesh and blood). | |

Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain: Due to the hidden "Demon Points" counter, every immoral action Snake commits (killing animals or enemy soldiers, attacking your buddies, killing Diamond Dogs staff, developing nukes, etc.) will slowly cause this to happen to him. At 20,000 points, his shrapnel horn grows significantly to resemble an actual horn, and at 50,000 points, it grows even longer and Snake becomes permanently covered in blood, becoming a true demon. | |

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2012): When Shredder mutates into the Super-Shredder in late Season 4, he turns into a freakish being with spikes, and his sanity continues to go downhill. He also abandons his affection for Karai in "Requiem" and leaves her to die in a burning building; on top of that, he has seemingly abandoned his love for Tang Shen, which was his former driving motivation for going after Splinter, declaring that it's fitting that Karai should die in the same manner as her mother. Both Karai and Splinter even lampshade it, declaring that Shredder is now a monster both inside and out. | |

In He-Man and the Masters of the Universe (2021), the power of Havoc mutates those who embrace it into monstrous forms that reflect the worst aspect of a person. Prince Keldor was cursed with Havoc when he tried to steal the power of Grayskull, but eventually welcomes the power and stabilizes into Skeletor. He then sets out to master and empower those loyal to him with "the purity of Havoc" to create his Dark Masters. | |

Assuming that The Joker started out as an ordinary man, whatever turned him into a Monster Clown certainly has this trope happen to him. However, in Death of the Family, he has successfully outdone himself by first having his face removed, and then coming back one year later to wear it like a mask. Now he looks like a villain out of a Slasher Movie. | |

The evil humans fought by the DWMA in Soul Eater are often incredibly bizarre. In the anime it's stated to be because eating humans souls was turning them into Kishin, whereas in the manga only weapons can eat souls, leaving their strangeness more or less inexplicable. | |

In Babushka: the Movie, the events of a famous round of Among Us are depicted, and the more that the impostors Valkyrae and Sykkuno kill, the more inhuman and demonic their appearance becomes. They look normal up until their second kills, at which point both briefly gain Black Eyes of Evil with Hellish Pupils, although this only last lasts a second. (And Sykkuno briefly has scary looking red eyes for a few seconds just before his second kill.) After Rae kills someone for the third time, her black eyes become permanent and at least from some angles it looks like she has fangs as well. See the video here. | |

Batman Beyond has a couple examples that double as Evil Makes You Ugly: In his first appearance, the sociopathic industrialist Derek Powers is revealed to have produced a deadly biochemical weapon to sell overseas. He ends up getting exposed to some of the poison gas himself. After receiving emergency radiation therapy, he turns into Blight, a radioactive supervillain who looks like a glowing green skeleton. Now his appearance really matches his inner self. This later happens to Charlie "Big Time" Bigelow; exposure to experimental agricultural chemicals turns him into a nine-foot-tall, deformed, hulking monster with Super-Strength. Which he doesn't mind in the least; he considers himself Cursed with Awesome, and likes the fact that people respect him now, even if it's because they're afraid of him. (In his second appearance, Max told Terry that "Charlie always was a monster, now he just looks the part.") |

Dungeons & Dragons, A lot of The Undead work this way. Cannibals rise from the grave as ghouls, unrepentant murderers come back as wights, those consumed by hatred become wraiths or spectres, and so on. Liches are undead wizards who willingly become monsters in order to live forever. The Book of Vile Darkness has Feats for Evil characters (recommended only for NPCs) who voluntarily become monstrous (and hideous) to gain power. The Evil Brand and Willing Deformity feats are, in effect, self-inflicted Body Horror to make the recipient Cursed with Awesome. There is also the taint mechanic introduced in the book Heroes of Horror. In this you don't even have to do evil; mere exposure to evil can distort the body and mind. Ravenloft invokes this to the point of having game mechanics for it. Whenever a player character commits an evil act, the DM makes a secret roll to find out if this attracts the attention of the Dark Powers. This normally results in gaining a supernatural power and a Red Right Hand to go with it. Repeated evil acts lead to further progression down a chart, and a PC who reaches this stage becomes a monstrous NPC Darklord. Some "Acts of Ultimate Darkness" can automatically take a character to Darklord status. |

Mortal Kombat (2011): Near the climax, Liu Kang, who has become disillusioned with the mounting body count as a direct result of Raiden's actions, attempts to attack the thunder god. Raiden is forced to defeat Liu Kang in combat to prevent him from interfering, causing Liu Kang to get severely wounded when Raiden's electricity reacts with Liu Kang's fireball and incinerates him. A horrified Raiden begs the mortally wounded Liu Kang to forgive him, but Liu Kang refuses. A similar thing happens to Kitana in MKX, as when she is revived as a revenant after being killed off by a brainwashed Sindel, she notes that Raiden doomed her to the Netherrealm. In Mortal Kombat X, Liu Kang and Kitana's souls were collected by Quan Chi, who used it to create evil "revenant" versions of the fallen Shaolin monk and Edenian princess. Liu Kang and Kitana actually feel better committing evil deeds due to the immense hatred they hold towards the thunder god they once considered an ally, and decide to become the Co-Dragons to Quan Chi and Shinnok. After Quan Chi is Killed Off for Real by Scorpion and Raiden condemns Shinnok to a Fate Worse than Death, Liu Kang and Kitana even become the new co-rulers of the Netherrealm. | |

Zig-Zagged by Griffith, who becomes slightly monstrous upon transforming into Femto, only to cross the Bishōnen Line and emerge even more beautiful after being reborn into the physical plane. This is because the God-Hand get to choose their own form, and Griffith was a rather vain person in life. | |

The Legend of Zelda: When Ganondorf made his wish on the Triforce in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, it transformed him into a monstrous Pig Man known as Ganon, seen in A Link to the Past and other games, to reflect his greedy nature. Although he is sometimes able to revert back to his human form at will, he definitely received the absolute refusal to actually stay down. | |

In one episode of Kirby: Right Back at Ya!, Knuckle Joe suddenly becomes a spiked-ball monster after he kept beating up Kirby, even after he is told what happened to his father and who killed him. Fortunately, after Kirby inhales his Needle power and defeating him again, he reverts back to normal, admitting defeat and rejecting his monster status. | |

Undertale's Genocide Run downplays this in a way that's still terrifying, in that the child's sprite never changes, but their behavior does, and it seems their appearance changes in ways visible to other characters but not expressible in the artwork. Sans and Papyrus note that they don't emote (their sprite has a never-changing expression, but this is different), stare creepily, and shamble about covered in dust (i.e. monster remains- basically, it's fantastic Blood Is the New Black). Other NPC's become terrified of them when they get close to them, including Doggo, a character that's nearly blind, who remarks that he can't stop shivering when the child approaches. The kid also keeps walking through Papyrus's puzzles and the speeches of various characters, which both unsettles them and ticks them off. But the real kicker comes right after the introduction of Sans and Papyrus. Sans tells the kid that his brother would really love to see a human, and asks them to keep pretending to be one. That's right, you've become so evil and twisted, you don't even register as human anymore! | |

Dragon Ball Super: During Fused Zamasu's fight against the heroes, his wonky Healing Factor means that as he takes hits, he mutates into a large purple monster as he takes more damage. Gowasu theorizes that it's his inner evil now manifesting on the outside, showing just how far he'd fallen in the pursuit of his warped ideals. His final form, Infinite Zamasu, is even worse, since he has essentially become the multiverse at this point and appears as dozens of Zamasu faces in the sky. | |

Tends to happen to the most powerful Dead in the Old Kingdom books. The deeper regions of death have strongly metamorphic properties, so that any spirit that forces its way back into the world of the living from there will have to be quite powerful to do so, but will no longer resemble its human form—and any dead spirit that willingly returns to life is a walking abomination against the natural order and a threat to any living person who encounters it. | |

In Magic: The Gathering the planeswalker Ashiok is gradually transforming into something else as they orchestrate acts of evil. Thus far they've transformed about half their head into dark mist and a pair of slender black horns (in the process removing the eyes and brain, which they seem to have passed beyond a need for). Arranging the massacre of an entire city turned a few more specks of their cheek into this mist, indicating that countless atrocities lie behind the progress that's been made so far. | |

Ravenloft invokes this to the point of having game mechanics for it. Whenever a player character commits an evil act, the DM makes a secret roll to find out if this attracts the attention of the Dark Powers. This normally results in gaining a supernatural power and a Red Right Hand to go with it. Repeated evil acts lead to further progression down a chart, and a PC who reaches this stage becomes a monstrous NPC Darklord. Some "Acts of Ultimate Darkness" can automatically take a character to Darklord status. | |

Princess: The Hopeful: Zig-Zagged with the effects of Dark Warping. The majority of Darkened develop Umbrae as they fall further into the Darkness, and when they hit zero Integrity they die and a bestial (and totally inhuman) Darkspawn is born from their corpse. But on the other side of the coin you have Mnemosynes, those who were already so evil that they welcomed the Darkness in without a fight. As a result, they never developed Umbrae and retained their human bodies and minds. This means that they can pass for normal when they need to, not to mention being able to use tactics and make long-term plans. |

In Until Dawn, true to Algonquian mythology, the act of eating human flesh transforms a person into a monstrous Wendigo, an undead predator with lanky arms and vicious teeth. The mountain the protagonists have visited has been infested with them since 1952 when a bunch of miners resorted to cannibalism to survive after being trapped for weeks by a cave-in. The survivors were transported to a sanatorium where they transformed, massacred the nurses and other patients and fled into the night. Years later, when Hannah and Beth fell off a cliff resulting in the latter's death, the former's maiming and both being presumed dead, Hannah resorted to eating her sister's remains, transforming her into the fearsome Makkapitew. | |

The Chronicles of Darkness: Hunter: The Vigil: Slashers are people, especially fallen Hunters, who have done such evil things that their depravity has warped them and given them special abilities to help them kill. The "Freak" and "Mutant" varieties are the most physically monstrous; others might look disarmingly normal on the outside. Mage: The Awakening: the Mad are mages who have committed so many heinous acts that their Karma Meters bottom out and their souls shatter, letting their magic start to leak out all over the place and manifest whatever psychoses pushed them over the edge. Promethean: The Created: The Centimani. Usually driven over the Despair Event Horizon by the raft of crap Prometheans have to deal with, they turn their back on the Pilgrimage and start dealing with Flux. This usually results in mutations. Lots of mutations. Vampire: The Requiem: The lower a vampire's humanity, the less they are able to pass for human. While low-humanity vampires aren't necessarily hideous, they tend to seem weird and unnatural to humans, and often get pale and corpse-like. Having low humanity also changes a vampire's metaphysical biology to be less human-like, such as requiring them to drink more blood to survive and making them stay in torpors longer. |

Requiem Chevalier Vampire: A literal take, where people are turned into various monsters in the afterlife based on their sins in life: Religious fanatics become werewolves; Infanticidal women become harpies; Rapists become centaurs; Hypocrites become ghouls (female Sky Pirates in this verse); Mad Scientists become Archeologists, continuing their sick experiments and having to wear newly-flayed skins; Vampires are a more eclectic bunch (basically comprising everyone who committed evil for sadistic reasons), including Vlad Tepes, Attila the Hun, Alister Crowley, several Nazis, a Japanese participant in the Rape of Nanking, Maximilien Robespierre and Nero; People who committed evil in the name of empires (mostly British colonialists) become Lizard Folk (led by the dragon King Arthur); Victims of evil either become zombies (seems mostly to apply to soldiers who fought in pointless wars) or lemures (ghosts that only move when their tormentor in life is expired on Résurection); Hitler was somehow prevented from turning into anything, instead kept as a safety measure against the six million or so Lemures that passed on with his neck being snapped by Dracula. |

In Doom, Chromosome 24 turns evil people (or people with a great potential for evil) into monsters and those who aren't into superhumans. Sarge, who had earlier crossed a moral line but was still just following orders, starts out superhuman after being infected but turns into a monster during his fight with Reaper the moment it seems like he's really going to murder him. | |

Dracula in Bram Stoker's Dracula had this happen to him after renouncing god and becoming a vampire. In his default form, he barely looks human, having a major case of Undeathly Pallor. While he can become young, when he lets it slip, his face is shown to be very monstrous and bumpy, implying that his true form. Considering he's shown to become a wolf, werewolf like creature and a bat, it makes sense as the curse is essentially an amalgamation of those creatures. | |

Davy Jones from Pirates of the Caribbean movies two and three was supposed to use his supernatural ship, the Flying Dutchman, to transport the souls of those who died at sea to the afterlife. After his lover Calypso abandoned him, he in turn abandoned his duties and began instead to bargain for the souls of dying sailors to become part of his undead crew, at which point they would be tortured until becoming one with the ship. This caused him (and, by extension, them) to mutate into horrific amalgamations of human and sea creature. | |

You can't become one accidentally, you have to deliberately choose to become one, and becoming one means that you lose all human empathy and must prey on humans to extend your lifespan. All aberrations also have an inhuman form which they must be in to feed or to access their full power, though some aberrations retain the ability to assume a human form as a disguise. | |

In Warhammer and Warhammer 40,000, worshippers of Chaos will inevitably mutate—sometimes rather quickly—as the power of Chaos seeps into their being. Chaos mutations tend to be rather...grotesque, even horrifying. Eventually, this power will be the key to the apotheosis into a Daemon Prince, although failure or inability to keep the power from overwhelming oneself, leads to succumbing to the mutations and becoming a mindless Chaos Spawn, which is a much more common fate (provided they survived to that point). It's implied Doombreed, the oldest Daemon Prince of Khorne, was better known in life as Genghis Khan. The Dark Eldar of 40k, though they generally have a somewhat genteel evil look, have Haemonculi, who enforce this trope on themselves, with a combination of surgical and quasi-scientific means. One of them Came Back Wrong from the dead, and every new death fails to restore him exactly to the previous state, so nowadays cheerfully lets himself be killed just so he can see what changed this time. |

In Chrono Trigger, you'd never know that Fiendlord Magus and Prince Janus were one in the same by looking at them. Considering his hatred for Lavos and goals for Revenge over a 20 year timespan, the Prince's appearance became twisted as he took on the role of the Fiendlord. As Janus, he had a light complexion, light blue hair, green eyes, eyebrows, and round ears. As Magus, he now has a pale gray complexion, dark blue hair, red eyes, No Brows, and Pointy Ears. | |

Judge Dredd: Dredd's nemesis Judge Death, a walking corpse who believes that life is a crime, was once a human being in an Alternate Universe. Death spent his whole life killing people before allowing a pair of witches to turn him and his three lieutenants into undead abominations to achieve immortality. Since he was already pure evil long before his transformation, casting off the last of his humanity means the outside simply started to reflect the inside. | |

According to Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters, any woman who turns evil and becomes a witch cannot perfectly hide her rotting flesh to a thorough examiner. Hansel uses it to prove that Mina is not a witch He turns out to be wrong, but the trope still applies because white witches like Mina are good and remain untarnished. Grand Black Witches can take on attractive forms, but when they use their powers they revert to their monstrous form. | |

In The Black Cauldron fic Hope for the Heartless, the Horned King is revealed to have been a human who became what he is today centuries ago when he lost his heart and humanity with the numerous atrocities he committed in the name of his master Arawn and later in his own name after his master was vanquished. | |

In Live A Live, this is the fate of the knight Oersted. Originally one of the most straight up heroic player characters in the game, he falls after he is betrayed and abandoned by everyone he knows. After accepting the mantle of "Lord of Dark", he seems to prefer his new monstrous form to his original appearance. He reverts to his original human appearance right before he dies while warning the other heroes not to repeat his mistakes. | |

Halloween's Michael Myers went from a super-strong, sociopathic human with plans to kill his sister to a completely unkillable supernatural being hell-bent on massacring half of Haddonfield. And if you follow the sixth movie's canon, his power is making him grow bigger in each movie. | |

Samurai Sentai Shinkenger, being heavily based on Japanese Mythology, has several bad guys who are explicitly ex-humans who went bad enough to become monsters. The villains for the show are even called Gedoushu, literally "Outside Path Ones", because they have left the path of humanity. | |

Bazil Broketail: Heruta's magical path to power has heavily altered his body. His eyes are fiery yellow and his entire body is covered in a layer of green horn-like tissue. Gog Zagozt's body was twisted by the very same dark magic that the Masters themselves use, although in his case, the transformation is not complete. The upper half of his face is that of a normal human, but the lower half — including mouth — has turned into a horny beak. |

In GURPS Fantasy II: The Mad Lands the eponymous Mad Lands are so saturated with Wild Magic that people who break tribal taboos will eventually transform into monsters corresponding to their specific wrongdoing; for example, greedy or gluttonous people may turn into Bloodless, while those that are metaphysically "thin-skinned", excessively whiny or prickly, may literally lose their skin and become Skinless. | |

As Sorceresses in Final Fantasy VIII grow older and continue to use their magic, their power begins to change their appearance into something less human and more monstrous. Edea was a fairly young sorceress so her appearance (while slightly altered) was still beautiful, whereas the older (and far crueler) sorceress Adel had morphed into a monstrous, muscular being. However, Sorceress Ultimecia's appearance is up for debate - her true form might be that of a winged, scantily clad woman, or her true form might actually be her barely human existence-sucking final form. Considering how the other sorceresses look, the latter is more likely. Then there are the various sorceresses the player must fight during Time Compression. The first batch have odd skin colors and facial markings but still resemble beautiful women, the second batch look a little less human and have eerily warped laughs, while the final sorceress resembles a fat, bloated, purple slug. |

Ryu from the Street Fighter series has an evil form, cleverly named "Evil Ryu". In the series, it is said that those who train in the art of Ansatsuken (Ryu's fighting style), they can tap into even more power with Satsui no Hadou, which causes the user to do anything for victory, including murder. Ryu using this power is what gave series boss Sagat, a gaping scar across his chest for sequels to come. Also worthy to note, series True Final Boss Akuma has been cursed with the power of the Satsui no Hadou, causing him to lose his mindset and his humility. |

In the Kingdom Hearts games, those who choose to become evil often wind up becoming Heartless (and Nobodies if their hearts are strong enough), with their form and power depending on how evil they were at the moment of their deaths. In very rare casesnote Terra-Xehanort and Scar, the person retains their original form as a Heartless. This fate would befall to at least six Disney Villainsnote Scar, Lady Tremaine and her two daughters (presumably), Mother Gothel, and Prince Hans. Maleficent also takes on her dragon form at times, including when Ansem, Seeker of Darkness stabs her with a dark Keyblade to unlock the darkness in her heart. |

In Catherine, this happens to several of the background characters in the Nightmare. Men in the nightmare appear as sheep, and the more they lose it, the less normal they look. By the time they've gone so far off the deep end that they start killing other sheep, they're gray, fat, and have long horns. The really Ax-Crazy sheep near the end have mutated so much they don't resemble sheep at all any more. | |

In Kamen Rider Decade's version of Kamen Rider Hibiki, an Oni who loses sight of justice and fights only to become stronger will become a powerful, corrupted, ox-like Makamou called Gyuuki. This happens to Hibiki, forcing his young student Asumu to Mercy Kill him and take up the title of Hibiki. The line between monster and human is a common theme in Rider shows, since a lot of its heroes gained their powers from evil sources before using them for good. |

Vampire: The Requiem: The lower a vampire's humanity, the less they are able to pass for human. While low-humanity vampires aren't necessarily hideous, they tend to seem weird and unnatural to humans, and often get pale and corpse-like. Having low humanity also changes a vampire's metaphysical biology to be less human-like, such as requiring them to drink more blood to survive and making them stay in torpors longer. | |
