Summary
The scariest demons in Chainsaw Man tap into common human fears, such as the fear of knowing the future or the fear of guns. The Gun Devil is especially terrifying due to its ability to kill millions of people every day and its unique ability to influence situations even when not present. The War Demon’s absolute disdain and ability to cause chaos and destruction make her one of the most feared demons in the Chainsaw Man universe.
There’s no shortage of scary demons inside Chainsaw man, the scariest of which are threats that distort reality. From grotesque to bizarre, shocking to horrifying, Chainsaw Man brings together the most terrifying demons in anime history.
The key to creating a higher fear factor in the demons in Chainsaw Man is not simply their appearance – although appearance can play an important role in showing how scary the demons are to human. The true measure of demonic fear is how deep and wide it touches the common fears of humanity. While millions of people may fear guns, hundreds of millions more fear abstract concepts like punishment. The scariest demons in Chainsaw Man exploit these deep-seated fears in surprising and horrifying ways.
10 Future Demons
Manga debut: Chapter #31
While knowing one’s future before it happens may seem like a benefit worth any sacrifice, it is a double-edged sword when offered by the Future Demon. His terrifying appearance should be a clear enough signal that knowing someone’s future doesn’t mean things will end well. Based on the “real-life” phobia known as precognition, Future Devil promises to reveal a person’s future if it is terrible enough to pique the Future Devil’s interest. As Aki Hayakawa learned, knowing someone will die doesn’t mean they can change their fate.
9 Gun Devil
Manga debut: Chapter #75
It can be said that very few people are immune to the fear of guns, which gives Gun Demons a huge source of negative energy to thrive on. When in full form, with a body made up mostly of guns, the Gun Demon is easily ranked among the scariest demons in terms of visuals alone. However, even if his appearance isn’t enough to scare a person, his abilities certainly will.
At its peak, Gun Devil can kill millions of people every day without breaking a sweat. It also has the unique ability to influence a situation even without being physically present – as his bullet-like skin continuously peels off during work. These instances are constantly attracted to each other and act as a reincarnated form of the Gun Devil.
8 demons of war
Manga debut: Chapter #98
At a time when nations go to war for almost every reason, the Devil of War reigns supreme. One of humanity’s oldest fears, the War Demon is an ancient force that knows how to survive.

Currently, possessing Asa Mitaka, she is still very scary even though she has not yet developed her full power.
What makes the War Demon so terrifying is her absolute disregard for convention. No rules, agreements, or customs control the War Demon, especially if it tries to keep her from the killing, destruction, and pain that his brutality thrives on.

7 evil curses
Manga debut: Chapter #24
Cursed demons, as their name suggests, gain their power from the fear of widespread curses, being one of the more quietly terrifying demons. Summoning a supernatural power against another person seems like a pretty powerful ability at first glance. However, the real devil is in the details. First, to manifest the Demon Curse, the user must stab the target three times with a nail-like instrument. Second, while success on the first step can result in summoning the Cursed Demon, the payout for the summoning is always years below the user’s lifespan. The fact that it has one of the most hideous appearances only makes it one of Chainsaw Man’s scariest demons.
