Her Evil Ranking[]
What Makes Her Close to Being Pure Evil?[]
- She owned a tourist trap named Mystery Mountain, where she lured numerous tourists to her cave so she could eat them and turn their corpses into mummies, with her having 13 confirmed victims and most likely much more.
- She kidnapped Stan so she could eat him and turn his corpse into a mummy, before breaking the walkie-talkie which he was using so he could talk to Dipper.
- She tried to eat Dipper, Mabel, Candy and Grenda when they came to rescue Stan.
- After being trapped under the giant boot, she tried to trick Stan into trying to free her so she could eat him.
- Unlike most of the monsters in the series, she wasn't just a mindless predator, as she was fully sapient and enjoyed cruelly mocking her victims before killing them.
- While she may not be as heinous as Bill Cipher, she is way less powerful than him as he’s a godlike demon while she’s just a spider wearing a woman’s skin.
What Prevents Her from Being Pure Evil?[]
- She has comedic moments, such as wondering what beverage would go well with Stan, and her defeat of being trapped under a giant boot before complaining that a giant newspaper and a giant cup would have been pretty bad as well.
Trivia[]
