Pop Goes the Nightmare: The 10 Greatest Horror Funko Pops Ever Made
Horror and Funko Pops are a match made in the darkest corner of a haunted house. Whether you grew up watching slasher classics, supernatural chillers or terrifying monsters from another world, Funko has transformed some of cinema’s most iconic villains into irresistible vinyl collectibles. While hundreds of horror Pops have been released over the years, only a select few have become genuine fan favourites thanks to their design, popularity and lasting appeal.
Here’s our countdown of the ten greatest horror Funko Pops ever made, complete with UK prices, availability and why each deserves a place in every horror collection.
10. Annabelle (#790) – The Conjuring Universe
The haunted doll that refuses to stay on the shelf is every bit as creepy in Funko form. Annabelle’s cracked porcelain face, vacant stare and vintage dress perfectly capture the unsettling appearance that made her one of modern horror’s biggest icons.
Typical UK price: £11-£18 for the standard release.
Availability: Still widely available through retailers including Amazon UK, specialist Funko shops and many independent collectors.
Why it’s one of the best: Rather than exaggerating the character, Funko faithfully recreated Annabelle’s disturbing simplicity. Sometimes less really is more.
9. Billy the Puppet (#1824/#52)
Few horror mascots are as recognisable as Billy from the Saw franchise. Riding his tricycle with those hypnotic red spirals on his cheeks, Billy has become synonymous with elaborate traps and impossible choices.
Typical UK price: £12-£16 for the latest standard version, while older vaulted editions can fetch £40 or more.
Availability: The newest versions remain readily available through Funko retailers, while original releases are mostly found on the secondary market.
Why it’s one of the best: Billy isn’t technically the villain, but he’s the unforgettable face of one of horror’s biggest franchises.
8. Sam (#1243) – Trick ‘r Treat
Small in stature but huge in popularity, Sam has become Halloween’s unofficial mascot. His orange pyjamas, burlap sack mask and trademark lollipop make for one of Funko’s most charming horror designs.
Typical UK price: £15-£30 depending on the version.
Availability: Some variants remain available through specialist retailers, while exclusive editions have become increasingly collectible.
Why it’s one of the best: It’s one of the cutest Horror Pops ever produced without sacrificing any of the creepy charm that makes Sam such a beloved character.
7. Chucky (#56 and newer releases)
Everyone’s favourite murderous doll has received multiple Funko releases over the years, each capturing a different stage of his gleefully violent career.
Typical UK price: £12-£16 for current releases. Vaulted versions often sell for £50-£150 depending on condition.
Availability: Several new Chucky figures remain in production and are easy to find throughout the UK.
Why it’s one of the best: Chucky practically feels made for the Funko style. The oversized head somehow makes him look even more mischievous.
6. Ghost Face – Scream
Ghost Face proves that a simple design can still be unforgettable. The flowing black robe and iconic screaming mask translate beautifully into vinyl form.
Typical UK price: Around £13-£16 for current editions.
Availability: New versions remain widely available from UK retailers including Smyths Toys, Amazon and specialist Funko stores.
Why it’s one of the best: Despite having almost no facial features, Ghost Face is instantly recognisable. That’s excellent character design, and Funko nailed it.
5. Freddy Krueger (#02)
Before there were dozens of elaborate horror Pops, there was Freddy. The striped jumper, fedora and razor glove remain one of the most iconic silhouettes in horror history.
Typical UK price: Original vaulted versions usually range between £120 and £300 depending on condition.
Availability: Primarily available through collectors, conventions and online resale marketplaces.
Why it’s one of the best: One of the earliest horror Funko Pops ever produced, Freddy helped establish the popularity of horror within the Pop! range.
4. Michael Myers (#03 and later releases)
Silent. Emotionless. Relentless.
Michael Myers’ blank white mask is among cinema’s greatest horror images, and Funko perfectly captures his eerie lack of expression.
Typical UK price: £13-£18 for modern releases. Early vaulted figures regularly exceed £100.
Availability: Multiple current versions remain available across UK retailers.
Why it’s one of the best: The simplicity works brilliantly. No unnecessary accessories, just pure nightmare fuel.
3. Jason Voorhees (#01)
Few horror villains have achieved Jason’s legendary status. Hockey mask, machete and imposing stance make this one of Funko’s most instantly recognisable figures.
Typical UK price: £13-£18 for newer versions. Original releases often command £150-£350.
Availability: Recent versions remain available, while the original 2013 release has become highly sought after.
Why it’s one of the best: Jason was one of the first major slashers to receive the Funko treatment, and collectors still consider him an essential centrepiece.
2. Creature from the Black Lagoon (Glow Chase)
Universal Monsters deserve enormous credit for creating modern horror, and no Funko captures that legacy better than the stunning glow-in-the-dark Creature from the Black Lagoon.
Typical UK price: Standard versions around £15-£20. Chase editions frequently exceed £60.
Availability: Standard editions occasionally return to retailers, while Chase variants are mainly found through collectors.
Why it’s one of the best: The sculpt is outstanding, packed with intricate scales and texture. Add the glowing effect and you have one of Funko’s finest monster designs ever produced.
1. Pennywise with Balloon – IT (2017)
If one Funko Pop perfectly represents modern horror collecting, it’s Pennywise.
Every detail is present: the Victorian clown costume, bright orange hair, sinister grin and unmistakable red balloon. Despite the stylised Funko design, Pennywise somehow manages to remain genuinely unsettling.
Typical UK price: £12-£18 for standard editions. Rare exclusives and vaulted variants can range from £50 to well over £250.
Availability: Several Pennywise variants remain widely available, making him one of the easiest legendary horror Pops to add to a collection.
Why it’s number one: No horror Funko combines brilliant sculpting, recognisable design, huge popularity and long-term collectability quite like Pennywise. Whether you’re a casual collector or a serious Funko enthusiast, this is one figure that belongs on the shelf… preferably where you can keep an eye on it.
Final Thoughts
The horror range has become one of Funko’s strongest collections, spanning everything from Universal Monsters to modern slashers and supernatural nightmares. While rare vaulted figures can command eye-watering prices, many of the very best are still affordable and readily available in the UK, making now an excellent time to start or expand a horror collection.
Whether your favourite killer lurks in Camp Crystal Lake, stalks Haddonfield or waits patiently inside a storm drain, there’s a Horror Funko Pop ready to haunt your display cabinet for years to come.
