Someone could go with Formosus II, but I don't think anyone wants to be reminded of this:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cadaver_Synod

Although there were three pope Stephen's after that.

Unverified sources claim that during the Cadaver Synod, the unhinged young Pope demanded of the fully-uniformed corpse: "Why did you usurp this See of the Apostle?" Whereat a young deacon crouching nearby shouted, "Because I was evil."
