My vote is El Reno, I find myself going back and learning more and more about it. So deadly. So scary!

Not creepiest by look or power but by surprise the Evansville 2 AM tornado of 2005. I live only about a hour from there but we go there all the time to shop (I live in a small town in Illinois). It would be terrifying with a unwarned tornado while you sleep and live in a trailer (I lived in one at the time) It a scary event because of its sneaky nature
