In the many medias based on text (comic books , novels, some video games), it became common to represent an evil laugh through the constant repetition of an onomatopoeia that expresses a laugh. HAHAHAHAHA was the most simple and used representation of the evil laugh, but soon many variations appeared, to give more personality to to the villain and his laugh. Some variations are as follow:
- HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! (The most typical of laughs)
- MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! (A more malevolent type of laugh)
- BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! (A rounder and fuller laugh)
- GWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! (Same as above)
- NHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
- HOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO! (A kind of chuckle)
- GACK ACK ACK ACK! (Form of a cough and a laugh)
- MUH HUH HUH HUH!
- HEEHEEHEE! (A giggle)
- HAH, HAH!
- HAR, HAR! (The laugh of a villain with generally low intelligence)
- EEYAH HA HA HA!
- MWEE HEE HEE HEE! (A mentally deranged laugh)
- UWEE HEE HEE HEE! (Same as above)
- BLEH HEH HEH HEH HEH!
- YEAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! (Form of a shout and a laugh)
Some evil laughs are minor variations of others, or even fusions of many other evil laughs.
Reasons to use a evil laugh
Villains can use their evil laughs in many different occasions. Some of them include:
- To show their superiority;
- To show how magnificent their plan is;
- To show the hero that his efforts are all in vain;
- To taunt a weaker opponent;
- After giving a demonstration of their power;
- After killing the hero, or killing one of the hero's friends in front of him;
- After going insane;
- After finishing a villain song;
- Some villains like to laugh for no reason at all.
