Evil Ash is the secondary antagonist of the Evil Dead franchise.
He is an demonic doppelganger of Ash Williams who emerged from the depths of darkness with an insidious purpose. In the ancient year of 1300 AD, this sinister replica rallied an army of malevolent beings, known as Deadites, to wage a ruthless siege on Castle Kandar. Their paramount objective was to seize hold of an invaluable artifact, the Necronomicon Ex-Mortis. However, despite his wicked intentions, the clone was ultimately vanquished by his virtuous counterpart, Ash Williams, who was often referred to as the "goody little two-shoes." It is essential to note that this clone is not merely an illusion or a figment of Ash's imagination; rather, it is the embodiment of his darkest inclinations, given physical form by the dreaded Kandarian Demon.
Just like his original counterpart, he was portrayed by Bruce Campbell, who also played Carl Greig in Icebreaker, Himcules in My Life as a Teenage Robot, Mayor Shelbourne in Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs and King Edmund in Rapunzel's Tangled Adventure.
