The most terrifying fictional species out there would probably be the Mutts from The Hunger Games book. They are described as mutations that are a combination of wolves and the past tributes. Can you imagine being hunted be a wolf that looks like a someone you killed or someone you loved? It brings a wholes new meaning of skeletons in your closet following you around. Having a friend become mutated into a wolf that is trying to kill you is probably the most terrifying thing that I could ever imagine. In the book they are described as having the same hair and features as the dead tributes. Katniss looked Rue in the eyes as she laid her down in the grass so she could die, could you imagine ever having to see those very same innocent eyes peering back at you through a creature with ravenous teeth and a desire to tear you limb from limb? I find these creature to be the most terrifying fictional species.
If they were suddenly good, that would still be incredible creepy. Would you want to have your best friend suddenly become a mutant and then become somewhat of a pet? Mutant friend as a pet? That is something that I would not want to encounter. It would be creepy to play fetch with one of you former friends or former victim.

I can see where that wouldn't be too fun.
