Price, and I don't find Donald Pleasance voice to be creepy at all. In fact, I find Vincent Price's voice rather pleasing to the ear when he isn't aiming to be creepy. Neither voice is all that creepy to me overall.

Its unfair to narrow it to two. Doug Bradley.

Oh, if we had options…Bradley is a good one.
Angus Scrimm as the Tall Man has a really distinctive and unsettling voice. He enunciates perfectly and says everything with a kind of ultra confident, malevolent snarl/hiss. That's creepy!!

Of course, my vote would be for Christopher Lee!

Very true, that's a great one. I met him at Texas Frightmare Weekend last year.

The babadook voice was pretty scary.

Vincent Price to answer your question.
The Candyman's voice was always hella creepy to me. Also agree with the person who said the babadook.

Don't get me on another anti Freddy rant! I was going to include Lorrie but decided not to, as I feel his voice is more sinister and psychotic, than creepy

I think of creepy as being very general & inclusive of many different types of creepy, from sinister to awkward -- but that's obviously subjective.

as creepy as Vincent Price's voice is, its also quite camp
one of the creepiest voices I have heard in a movie is the kids voice in The Changeling... from the recordings, to it echoing in throughout. Mad creepy.

The kids from The Innocents really sent shivers down my spine. I dunno why... they were just creepy as hell.

Vincent between the two, Doug Bradley and the Babadook are great choices too, but what really made me about piss myself was the voice out of fucking nowhere in Amityville Horror.

Jeezus H Crist. In Poltergeist her voice was sweet and as harmless as as little old lady can get. But put it to a documentary and just no. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxJkMlqYrys

She also did the narration for a show called "Scariest Places on Earth" some years ago. Linda Blair was the host. It was a reality show that placed a family in a "haunted" location, and had them do some ghost hunting. My family and I auditioned to be on it in August of 2001. Then 9/11 happened, and the show went off the air.

Damn that sucks. Sounds like it was a good show, one of the kind I like to watch to draw to.

What about Pinhead??
The only true voices that ever really creep me out are the demonic ones; like from the Exorcist.

yeah Doug Bradley played Pinhead. His voice is so demonic the band Cradle Of Filth get him to speak on their albums sometimes

Doug Bradley did play pinhead. As said above he also did speaking parts for Cradle of Filth, see below.
