This week’s quiz has been inspired by Bella and Edward’s offspring in the new Twilight movie out tomorrow. Not that Renesmee is supposed to be a demon child but… well, you wait till you see the film. She’s certainly freaky. It’s like the dancing baby from Ally McBeal has been possessed by HAL from 2001 .

We don’t want you to name the evil children below (in some cases, they are nameless anyway) just the films or TV shows they come from. They’re all supernatural or sci-fi in some way. And, to be fair, they’re not all evil. A couple are just ugly ducklings or victims of circumstance. But they are all freaky.

As per usual this quiz is just for fun. Feel free to brag (or cry) in the comments section about how well/poorly you’ve done, but please don’t post any answers here lest Saruman hunt you down in your sleep. You can post answers in this thread , just make sure you use invisible text.
