We love to hate them, but we probably shouldn't take any back to school advice from these baddies!
1. Miss Trunchbull (Matilda)
“Save time in the morning and wear your gym clothes all day and call it ‘being prepared.’”
2. The White Witch (The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe)
“Turn the thermostat way down and have a snowball fight in the classroom.”
3. The Big Bad Wolf (The Three Little Pigs)
“Skip the lunchbox. Just sniff around the cafeteria until you find something better.”
4. Captain Hook (Peter Pan)
“Sharpen your pencil as slowly as possible…it’s the perfect way to stall during tests.”
5. The Queen of Hearts (Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland)
“When you don’t know the answer, just yell it really loud at the teacher- confidence matters!”
6. The Wicked Witch of the West (The Wonderful Wizard of Oz)
“Stay far away from the water fountains. Nothing good comes from getting splashed.”
7. The Grand High Witch (The Witches)
“Bring weird snacks for lunch. People always trade when they’re curious.”
8. Count Olaf (A Series of Unfortunate Events)
“When the teacher calls on you, act like you’re rehearsing for a play. Bonus points for accents.”
9. Voldemort (Harry Potter)
“Never write your name on schoolwork…keep it mysterious, it’s scarier that way.”
10. Prince John (Robin Hood)
“Always sit in the teacher’s chair! The throne makes you look important, even if nobody listens.”
11. The Evil Queen (Snow White)
“Stop at every shiny surface in the hallway. Looking good is more important than being on time.”
12. Cruella de Vil (101 Dalmatians)
“Treat the school hallway like a runway. Learning is fine, but fashion is forever.”
13. Rumpelstiltskin (Rumpelstiltskin)
“When the teacher asks a tough question, refuse to answer until someone guesses your nickname.”
14. The Grinch (How the Grinch Stole Christmas)
“Hide all the pencils before a test. No pencils, no problems.”
15. The Wicked Stepmother (Cinderella by Charles Perrault)
“Make someone else do your chores, then call it good time management.”
