Learn English – Word to describe a very negative, pleasure-killing person

word-request

I would try to find some more words or expressions to describe a person who is always being negative and brings down the mood of other people.

As far as I can tell, there are "a sourpuss" and "a Debbie Downer". Can I use other words or expressions?

"Killjoy" is a word which can describe a person who is very negative and who attempts to make others feel less comfortable in their surroundings.

"Buzzkill" is a similar term but is a more informal term, whereas "killjoy" is a word found in the dictionary.
