Peter Steele, nome artístico de Petrus T. Ratajczyk, (Brooklyn, 4 de janeiro de 1962 — Nova Iorque, 14 de abril de 2010) foi o vocalista, baixista e principal compositor da banda de gothic metal Type O Negative. Antes de fazer parte deste grupo, tocou nas bandas Fallout e Carnivore. Como líder do Type O Negative, Steele era conhecido por seu visual vampírico, o vocal baixo-barítono e um senso de humor autodepreciativo. A sua altura, cerca de 2,01 m (6'8"), juntamente com o seu aspecto e voz profunda, davam-lhe uma presença forte em palco. As letras que escreveu para as canções da banda frequentemente apresentam caráter pessoal, tratando de temas como o amor, o sexo, a morte, a complexidade existencial, o suicídio e a política.
