American Horror Story: 25 of the greatest AHS villains of all-time

19. Wilhemina Venable American Horror Story: Apocalypse

In AHS: Apocalypse, there are any number of villains that popped up throughout the season, and while there is one in particular that will show up rather high on this list (if you know, you know), we can’t forget Ms. Wilhemina Venable. She may look prim and proper

The thing about Wilhemina Venable is that she is genuinely an awful person. Even before the apocalypse began, this was a women who showcased signs of being both sadistic and brutal. And once she became the ruler of an outpost for survivors (if you will), it seems like these characteristics multiplied.

Ms. Venable is all about power and being the person with the most power in any situation. She wants control over anyone and everyone and it often leads to her doing things that cement the fact that she is a villain. Not only does she have people murdered for having sex with each other, but she is also the kind of person who will kill a person for their powers or if they are getting in the way of her being in power.

Considering her personality leans towards evil and sadistic, it just makes sense that she is a villain. The fact that she is one of the villains of a season called Apocalypse just means that she falls short of the top 10. But that doesn’t make her any less awful and villainous.
