I believe in Sleeping Beauty, Prince Charming basically had sex with her while you was under the curse, knocked her up, and he only reason she woke up was because one of the twins she birth sucked on her finger dislodging the flax and waking her.

Turns out he's been dead for awhile, but they kill his replacement anyway.~~ Alice in wonderland is fucked. Basically drug ramblings of a child obsessed creeper. Walrus and the carpenter is really all you need to hear. Narnia is supposed to be an allegory for Christianity, somehow.

PMarth2002 01/28/18 3:22:41 AM #17:	Going to have to go with Animorphs in general. That series was fucked up. The Yeerks are nightmare fuel by themselves.

Animorphs had it's dark moments too, abd didn't shy away from the reality of war. Animorphs start off dark.
