{{examples}}
== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
 
== Anime ==
* Katherine from ''[[Gregory Horror Show]]''. A rather perverted pink lizard nurse with a needle the size of herself which she.....seems to '''REALLY''' love draining all the blood out of people with.
* Mako Yakumaru from ''[[Rosario + Vampire]]'' has an injection fetish. Her injections temporarily turn people into her slaves, and proceed to help her carry out homicidal Antithesis missions.
Line 27 ⟶ 26:
* ''[[Fables]]'' has Mrs. Sprat. It turns out she became a nurse out of immense jealousy towards all the other beautiful Fables, for the chance to have them on their backs and completely at her mercy.
 
== [[Film]] ==
* As mentioned above, Nurse Ratched in ''One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest''.
* The uber-example of a comic version would be [[Hattie Jacques]]' character in the various ''[[Carry On]]'' films.
Line 35 ⟶ 34:
* ''[[Foxy Brown]]'''s boyfriend has a nurse who doesn't take kindly to his state of arousal after Foxy's visit.
 
== [[Literature]] ==
* As mentioned above, Nurse Ratched in ''[[One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest]]''.
* Annie Wilkes in ''[[Misery]]'', who has the bonus of being a [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere]] [[Loony Fan]].
* In "[http://www.tor.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=story&id=61 Down on the Farm]", a short story by [[Charles Stross]], the Laundry's [[Bedlam House]] is run by a deranged, {{spoiler|demonic}} 1960s mainframe called "Matron", and three robot "Sisters" slaved to it. As in ''[[Futurama]]'', one of the nurses is called Nurse Ratchet.
* The senior nurse in ''[[Discworld/Going Postal (Discworld)|Going Postal]]'', who seems to be a little hazy on the difference between a hospital and a prison. Dr Lawn, supposedly in charge of the hospital, claims that the only way to deal with the nursing staff is to throw a handful of chocolates in one direction and then run in the other as fast as possible.
* ''Assignment Gestapo'' by [[Sven Hassel]]. [[Dumb Muscle|Tiny]] falls in love with the (so-called) milder version, because she's the first woman he's met who's tough enough not to take any abuse from him.
 
== [[Live -Action TV]] ==
* ''[[Supernatural (TV series)|Supernatural]]'' had one of these as the [[Monster of the Week|Ghost of the Week]] in "Folsom Prison Blues".
* [[Dexter]]'s first victim was a mad nurse who slowly euthanized patients—willing or not.
Line 51 ⟶ 50:
* Averted, oddly enough, with Major Margaret "Hot Lips" Houlihan of ''[[M*A*S*H (television)|Mash]]''. While she was generally depicted, especially in the early seasons, as a humorless and short-tempered authoritarian in her interactions with the rest of the staff, her manner with the actual patients was always kind and caring.
 
== [[Web Comics]] ==
 
== Webcomics ==
* Jeremy's stalker in ''[[Platinum Grit]]'' becomes this for a while.
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20140305104624/http://www.shadowgirlscomic.com/comics/health-care/ One] appeared in ''[[Shadowgirls]]''. Unfortunately for her, Mrs. Snow was currently friendly to her victim, around, [[Alpha Bitch|more skilled at trampling people into dirt]] and "needed the exercise".
 
== [[Western Animation]] ==
* ''[[Futurama]]'' has the robotic Nurse Ratchet, an obvious parody of Nurse Ratched.
* ''[[The Flintstones]]'' had one of these show up when Pebbles was born. A few other times, too.
 
== [[Real Life]] ==
* A 2006 [http://www.guardian.co.uk/society/2006/feb/15/health.crime Guardian article] reports that a male nurse in an English hospital poisoned a bunch of patients just so he could impress people when he resuscitated them. Problem was, in two cases the resuscitation didn't work.
* There was also a story in the Toronto Star once about a young American nurse who fatally poisoned three patients (and never attempted to revive them) to impress her friends.
