Any movies that go that route? Like hell boy and the like. I love original scary fairy tails.

Pan's Labryinth comes to mind.

It's a TV show, but Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell is worth the watch

I read the book but I never watched the show - is it worth?

[–] NegativeInf@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Yes. But this is coming from someone who never read the book. I enjoyed the show.

It's been a while since I've seen it, but I think I remember it being pretty faithful. It's definitely a good TV show in its own right

Read the book and watched the show. Both are fantastic in their own rights, very different ways to consume the story with some differences that fit well for their medium.

I love me some fairy tails too.

The Other Mother in Coraline is patterned after classic fae, especially in the book.

Grimm was a somewhat cheesy cop drama along these lines...

Alternatively, people's "real" accounts of Fey encounters are equally terrifying if taken at the perspective of reality.
