Way back when, would Humpty Dumpty be considered a dark story since he fell and crashed into a lot of pieces and no one could put him back together again. As a child, I just saw this little cute egg who somehow just got cracked and that was that. The difference would be the "visual" effects the story would be cast in today. It very well could be turned into a horrible monster type Humpty with blood and guts as all rotten eggs might be. And of course his fall would be in slow motion with scary music.
And what about the horror of Little Red Riding Hood being scared so much by that fierce wolf who was going to eat her up. Wait a min., I think we have many types of that sort of story out now.
I loved to read Hunger Games because I could see it the way I wanted to see it. Especially when reading you can sort of fade out the parts that you don't want to visualize. But it was a different experience to see the movie with all the visual and sound effects.
So, are there different shades of dark? Depending on the way it is portrayed?
