It's strange how our best-remembered children's stories have a streak of evil running through them. It wouldn't take much to turn Snow White into a horror story or Treasure Island into a crime drama, would it?That's what the Wizard of Oz is supposed to do, freak kids out.

No it really wouldn't. It seems to be a trend that goes back pretty far too. Take a look at the Grimm Fairy tales. The majority of them are extremely brutal, yet I grew up reading them.
