Children's horror

Children's horror is a subgenre that combines films aimed at children with tropes of the horror genre.
== History ==
In general, the genre is about as old as stories for children. Folklore was often influential, including many tales meant to scare children from bad behaviour, such as Krampus, the evil monster who punished children. Many people cite fairy tales as being among the earliest examples of horror aimed at children, as many of the stories had elements often associated with horror such as unsettling fates and the supernatural.
