Overview
Throughout the series, Henry is shown as being a "horrid" boy, indicated by the people around him, including his parents and teacher. Horrid Henry was shown to be 10 years old until Horrid Henry's Birthday. He is shown to be around 11 years old from Horrid Henry's Birthday until Horrid Henry's Birthday Bonanza. He is shown to turn 12 in Horrid Henry's Birthday Bonanza onward. He is 3 foot 6.

Personality
Horrid Henry's personality is just the complete opposite of Perfect Peter. He does not behave at all. Once something is not fair in his eyes or if his parents don't give him what he wants, he gets mad and throws a fit. He is rude, sociopathic, insensitive, has a ton of anger issues, and likes to bully other kids just for fun. He also can attack anyone who annoys or provokes him by transforming, although normally, he does that on Peter. There are some occasions where he does that on another person, such as Bossy Bill in Horrid Henry Goes to Work and Slimy Sammy in Perfect Peter's Pen Pal.

Despite his reputation and nickname, Henry's personality has become more friendly since the middle of Series 3, such as when he offers to help someone in one episode and his anger issues are toned down. It's theorized that his behaviour may stem from envy from his brother Peter who receives better treatment and affection from their parents and the fact that people don't trust him.

It is shown that Henry is often called a 'Horrid Boy' by numerous people which gives him the image of a troublesome boy. Due to his given reputation, Henry is often blamed for problems he doesn't cause.

Appearance
Henry is usually seen wearing a horizontally yellow striped blue T-shirt with blue jeans and the usual green and white trainers. His pyjamas are blue, with vertical white stripes. The slippers he wears in his pajamas has inside looks like a crocodile's face and olive green colour. He has brown hair and pale skin.He has messy light brown hair.

Parents
Mum and Dad have never trusted Henry to be well behaved, are extremely healthy, and always make something with vegetables for dinner. They also make healthy snacks for parties. Dad agrees with Mum almost all the time. They often yell at Henry, punishing him by banning him from doing horrid things like watching TV and sending him to his room, but they must resort to cancellation or downward re-assession of pocket money, giving it to Perfect Peter. Peter on the other hand, rarely gets into trouble, and whilst Henry misbehaves, Peter shows off to their parents.

According to Henry, they have told him millions of times that he can never have another birthday party, but then agree to give him one more chance each year.

The vast majority of the time, Mum and Dad believe Peter rather than Henry, being best known for disciplining Henry, particularly with the phrase: "Don't be horrid, Henry!". They often force Henry to locations such as his room, if he is not well behaved, or they simply say "GO TO YOUR ROOM NOW, HENRY!".

Perfect Peter
Perfect Peter is Henry’s younger brother who is the opposite personality to Henry, and hence his name, Peter is perfect. Usually, during home life, Peter snitches on Henry by telling their parents of his horrid behaviour. For that, Henry may be punished by being sent to his room, no TV, etc. and for that, he calls him a “worm”. Despite their enemy behaviour to each other, Henry allows Peter to be the Chief Secretary of the Purple Hand Gang. They do team up with each other against their other enemies like Bossy Bill and Rabid Rebecca.

Friends
Throughout the whole course of the series, Henry's best friend is shown to be Rude Ralph, which Henry has a similar personality to. Ralph lives the life of luxury that Henry dreams of having, is a member of the Purple Hand Gang and is often involved with Henry at schemes and plots. Henry's other friends include Aerobic Al, Beefy Bert and Brainy Brian. Sometimes though, Henry can treat his friends like underlings and not listen to them when they warn him about something. However, they remain friends, somehow.

Moody Margaret
Henry's neighbour, main enemy, and arch-enemy, Moody Margaret, attend Henry's school and owns her club named The Secret Club in her back garden. It rivals with Henry's club, the Purple Hand Gang. Margaret often annoys Henry, while Henry torments Margaret by performing horrid deeds. They might deal with things, but they are still enemies. Despite the conflicts between Henry and Margaret, they are known to temporarily strike up as alliances, like in Horrid Henry's Horrid Revenge. They live next door to each other. She can scream very loudly in episodes, the loudest possibly being Moody Margaret Moves In.

Sour Susan
Despite sometimes working for Henry (for revenge on Margaret), Sour Susan is Margaret's best friend and the seconder of the Secret Club. Henry was once said to love Susan in a fake love letter that Perfect Peter wrote. She may annoy her enemies by copying some of Margaret's words followed by "Yeah". She’s also one of Henry’s enemies and Rude Ralph’s arch enemy.

Stuck-Up Steve
Stuck-Up Steve is Henry's cousin, whose mother, Rich Aunt Ruby is described as being rich. Steve often brags about his expensive clothes and toys. Steve and Henry often come to conflict. As seen in the book, Horrid Henry's Christmas, Henry sneaks down during the night and swaps labels between his and Steve's presence are then opened by him in the morning and vice-versa. Steve attempts revenge in the book, Horrid Henry's Haunted House when Henry has to stay at Steve's house and attempts to scare Henry, although Henry accidentally sends Steve and his mother screaming from the house. Steve is last seen in the book, "Horrid Henry Dines at Restaurant Le Posh" when Aunt Ruby invites Henry and his family to dinner at a fancy French restaurant. In the episode Horrid Henry's Haunted House, Henry has a flashback when Steve can't let Henry play with his toys and has to play with old ones instead.

Perfect Peter
Henry's brother Peter is well-behaved, slightly spoiled, and the opposite of Henry. Every time Henry does something out of line, even when there is no point, Peter tells on him. Henry says that Peter doesn't have to tell on him, but he still does it. Henry teases and abuses him by calling him names, the worst being "smelly nappy baby". When Peter gets Henry angry, Henry has revenge by tricking him and therefore getting him into trouble. Tricking him is not difficult for Henry as shown in Horrid Henry's Horrid Revenge when he says that Peter believes anything. But Henry still lets him be Chief Secretary of the Purple Hand Gang.

Purple Hand Gang
Horrid Henry owns a club in his back garden, in which he names it The Purple Hand Gang. The club rivals with The Secret Club, Moody Margaret's club as in Horrid Henry and the Secret Club.

The members of the Purple Hand Gang include Rude Ralph, Aerobic Al, Beefy Bert and Perfect Peter, although Peter has been kicked out on numerous occasions such as Perfect Peter's Revenge, while Margaret's club members are Sour Susan, Lazy Linda, Gorgeous Gurinder, and Singing Soraya.

The Purple Hand Gang headquarters is in a purple old fort, whilst the Secret Club headquarters is in Margaret's treehouse.

Hobbies and Interests
Horrid Henry notably enjoys watching television and his favourite shows include Mutant Max, Rapper Zapper and Terminator Gladiator. Henry and Peter often argue over who watches the television, because Peter prefers to watch programs that Henry finds too babyish.

Henry also enjoys playing on the computer, eating junk food, and spending pocket money, although Henry never has any as he spends all of it as soon as he gets it and it is often taken away by his parents because of his horrid behaviour. Henry’s favourite types of music include heavy metal, hip-hop, R&B, rock, and he especially loves music by the Killer Boy Rats. He likes to burp and fart.
