Sharks are usually the go-to creatures when writers want to include a threatening sea animal in their stories. Sometimes, however, writers can get tired of them and might want another, more unique underwater threat. The creatures commonly known as rays (and scientifically known as Batoidea), which include both the stingrays and the manta rays, are a popular choice. While not as outwardly dangerous as sharks (to which they are distantly related), their bizarre appearance has captured the imagination of many storytellers. It's easy to see why these fish are often portrayed as creepy and menacing. Their winglike fins call to mind a black cloak and make them look like the underwater version of a bat. As such, they tick a lot of the boxes that traditionally mark animals as "scary". Even when they aren't actually shown as threatening, stingrays and manta rays are popular Animal Motifs for underwater-themed villains, likely because of their aforementioned resemblance to a Black Cloak or Ominous Opera Cape. Doesn't help stingrays have venomous spines, also a hallmark of scariness in pop culture, and bury themselves in the seafloor to leave only their eyes and tail visible. Strangely, electric rays rarely show up in pop culture, despite being a worthy alternative to electric eels in the Shock and Awe department. It's also fairly common for manta rays and related species in particular to be portrayed as not simply creepy, but as downright demonic. The funnels on either side of their mouths recall the horns of the Devil, and indeed an alternative name for them is "devil ray". This, combined with the fact that they are the largest of all rays and are often coloured black, has led to many depictions of them as demons. Compare both Threatening Shark for their close cousins and Bat Out of Hell for a flying animal with many of the same connotations. Contrast Mellow Mantas. |

River Monsters: Jeremy's tackled two giant species of stingray which caused attacks with their barbed tails: the Giant freshwater stingray of southeast Asia in one episode and the Short-tailed river stingray of Argentina in the other. Though like most other animals on the show, Jeremy does treat the animals with respect and dignity and the show does the same, showing them as animals living their lives rather than monsters. The Giant Freshwater episode even has the one Jeremy catches give birth. | |

Justice League: During the final season, a Black Manta Expy known as Devil Ray was included among the ranks of the Legion of Doom (a result of Aquaman and his characters being tied up in a series that never get off the ground). A cold and ruthless villain, his arsenal includes poisoned barbs, and he freely admits to having killed many people. | |

This manta ray is easily the most dangerous of the Nightmare King's servants; spying on the heroes when they enter Nightmare Land, nearly killing Nemo multiple times in the final battle, and in its dying actions manages to destroy Nemo's flying bed. | |

Circe: Exaggerated with Madeleine Miller's addition to Greek mythology in the Animalistic Abomination Trygonnote Which just means "Stingray".. Vastly stronger and older than any God or Titan in the story with a poison barb tail that would be instant death and unending lifelong pain to mortal and immortal respectively. The only reason he hasn't tried to rule is that he doesn't care for anything outside his abyssal ocean home. Played With in that he turns out to be a nice reasonable creature who is one of the only characters to help Circe purely out of the goodness of his heart and respect for her courage and willpower. | |

Mantaman in Street Sharks is a zigzagged example of the trope. A former human transformed by injecting himself with a mutagenic cocktail loaded with a mixture of manta ray and alien DNA, he looks like a terrifying monster, like any of the other genetically engineered creatures of the series, and has a number of monstrous powers, including flight, Super-Strength and the ability to survive in the vacuum of space. However, he's a good guy who heroically sacrificed his humanity to gain the power to stop an alien monster that was wreaking havoc on a research space station. He does have a stint of being Brainwashed and Crazy in one of his subsequent appearances, though. | |

Dungeons & Dragons: The Ixitxachitl are a race of monstrous, vampiric stingrays or manta rays that serve Demogorgon, the Prince of Demons. Rather than being mere vicious animals, they are sentient and actively malicious and even practice slavery. The lurker above is a Living Gasbag that looks like a large (20-foot wingspread) manta ray. It hovers near the ceiling of caves and falls onto its victims. It does 1-6 Hit Points of constriction damage per combat round and will smother opponents to death within 2-5 combat rounds unless they can escape. The mantari is a flying monster that bears a strong resemblance to a manta ray and has an 85% chance to attack other creatures. Its long tail has a stinger that can do significant damage each time it hits and does quadruple damage each time it hits an opponent in successive rounds of combat. Wererays, a kind of therianthrope with the ability to change from a humanoid into a giant predatory stingray or a humanoid stingray, are amongst the many minor werebeasts of D&D. They're largely associated with Ravenloft. |

LEGO did this several times. The Atlantis line includes villainous Manta Warriors. Alpha Team had a "Mutant Ray" that was controlled by the villain Evil Ogel. The Stingray faction of Aquazone are villainous undersea pirates who use rays as Animal Motifs. Mantax from BIONICLE, one of the six Barraki warlords, resembles a humanoid manta ray as a result of being mutated by the corrupting waters of The Pit. He is noted for his secretive nature and great distrust for the other Barraki (due to his knowledge that one of them betrayed the rest). Like real rays, he also has a tendency to hide in the seabed to ambush his enemies and has venomous spines (albeit on his head rather than his tail). |

Ecco the Dolphin: In Defender of the Future stingrays will deliver a painful shock if Ecco bumps into them, although they mostly just stay on the sea floor and so they're not hard to avoid. One single overgrown stingray will actively chase Ecco down if he manages to disturb it, but it moves slowly and will go back to its resting place if it manages to shock Ecco. | |

Beast Wars had Depth Charge, a badass Maximal security officer who heads for prehistoric Earth in pursuit of the serial killer Predacon Rampage and takes on a manta ray form when he gets to Earth. While he's still heroic enough to pull the occasional I Was Just Passing Through, he's generally an unlikable ass who couldn't care less about his fellow Maximals and is so hyperfocused on killing Rampage that he hinders his allies as often as he helps them. Optimus, who knew him before Rampage slaughtered all his friends and family, points out he was once a very kind and noble machine before becoming the broken, hollow, revenge-obsessed shell he is now. | |

Bayonetta 2: Insidious is one of the demons of Inferno, and takes the appearance of a gigantic manta ray, complete with skull markings on its back and eyes on its wings. Insidious swallows Bayonetta and Loki alive at one point, forcing them to battle it from within, and they have to use extremely powerful magic weaponry to kill it. | |
