What are some examples of Dark MLP Stories?

One example could be a story about a haunted house where a family moves in and strange, terrifying things start to happen at night. They hear unexplained noises, see shadowy figures, and slowly start to lose their sanity.

One popular MLP Dark Fanfic might be those that explore alternate, more menacing timelines in the MLP universe. For example, stories where the magic goes out of control and causes chaos among the ponies. However, these often deviate from the original positive and colorful theme of MLP.

Here is one: 'Lost love, forever in pain.' Another could be 'Murdered dreams, silent screams.' And 'Lonely soul, end in the dark.'

In The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Frollo's obsessive and cruel nature towards Esmeralda is quite dark. He represents religious extremism and lust, which are dark themes. His actions of trying to hunt down Esmeralda because of his 'forbidden' desires are part of the story's darkness.

One example could be a story where a furry character is ostracized from their community because they have a strange marking that is seen as a bad omen. This leads to their journey of self - discovery in a cruel world.

In the Grimm's Fairy Tales, there are many such stories. For instance, 'Hansel and Gretel' where the two children are abandoned in the forest by their parents because of poverty. They then face the danger of the witch who wants to eat them. This shows the dark side of a childhood filled with abandonment and the threat of death.

A super dark story might involve a family that moves into a new house. Little by little, they notice that things keep disappearing. One day, the youngest child starts talking to an 'imaginary friend'. But it turns out this friend is a malevolent spirit that was once a victim of a murder in the house long ago. The spirit begins to torment the family, driving them to the brink of madness.

One example is 'Wuthering Heights'. Heathcliff and Catherine's love is dark. Their passion is mixed with revenge and envy. Heathcliff is treated poorly as a child, and his love for Catherine turns into a dark obsession after she marries another. Another is 'The Phantom of the Opera'. The Phantom's love for Christine is dark as he tries to control her life in the name of love.

Some dark nursery stories include 'Rumpelstiltskin'. The little man is very menacing and will take the queen's child if she can't guess his name. 'Beauty and the Beast' in its original form has darker aspects, like the Beast being more of a terrifying figure at first. And 'The Girl Without Hands' which tells the story of a girl who has her hands cut off by her father because of a deal with the devil.

A 'dark disabled story' could be about a disabled child who is bullied at school. The other kids make fun of their disability, and the teachers turn a blind eye. This creates a very dark and difficult environment for the child to grow up in. It not only affects their mental health but also their self - esteem and future prospects. The story could explore how the child tries to overcome this situation or how it ultimately breaks them.
