Category:Damned Souls

Damned Souls, also known as Doomed Spirits or Cursed Souls are those who not only died but were also condemned to live on in a spiritual hell dimension; in essence they become akin to Demons or Noncorporeal entities such as ghosts but are distinct supernatural beings in their own right often known as Unclean Spirits.

Being a Damned Soul is considered the ultimate downfall and often reserved for the most evil of characters since only the most sinister of individuals usually gives the audience enough hatred that they see eternal damnation as a suitable form of punishment. Most Pure Evil villains are reserved for this, and those who cross the Moral Event Horizon will be susceptible as well. Many Damned Souls can continue to plague the living after their death, becoming Lesser Demons or Poltergeists.

Some Tragic villains can also end up damned if they're victim of a demon or a curse, regardless of their morality or actions in their past life (e.g. Kayako Saeki).
