"Hop-Frog" is a horror Short Story by Edgar Allan Poe, first published in 1849.A jester of the same name, who happens to have dwarfism, has served the king by providing practical jokes to play for the amusement of the court alongside fellow dwarf Trippetta. When the king pressures Hop-Frog into consuming alcohol and Trippetta tries to stop him, the king responds by pushing her and throwing wine in her face.Unbeknownst to him, his actions would draw out Hop-Frog's ire and he would plot his revenge against the king and his council. | |

Monster Clown | |
| Hop-Frog / int_932da128 | comment |
Monster Clown: Hop-Frog was the king's court jester until he had it with the poor treatment that he and his friend Trippetta had been receiving and dresses eight people as orangutans for an upcoming Masquerade Ball and lit them on fire as an "act", all for Revenge. | |

Handicapped Badass | |
| Hop-Frog / int_a7b324e | comment |
Handicapped Badass: Hop-Frog may be a dwarf with deformed legs, but that doesn't stop him from getting his revenge. In particular, even though he walks with a limp, the narrator mentions that he is great at climbing because of the stength in his arms. | |

Depraved Dwarf | |
| Hop-Frog / int_c3c91506 | comment |
Depraved Dwarf: Subverted Trope. The king and his courtiers who torment Hop-Frog and his beloved Trippetta are the depraved ones, while the latter two are pretty nice and decent people. | |

Decadent Court | |
| Hop-Frog / int_c9790040 | comment |
Decadent Court: The king and his courtiers have nothing better to do than make fun of the jester, who was kidnapped and taken from his homeland, for his appearance and disabilty. They later harm Tripetta, which doesn’t end well for them. At all. | |

Killer Gorilla | |
| Hop-Frog / int_eeb2d092 | comment |
Killer Gorilla: Hop-Frog convinces the king and his men to disguise themselves as orangutans and rampage through a court ball as a practical joke. Just one small problem: to apply the horsehair for the constumes, Hop-Frog uses tar. Flammable tar. | |

Would Hit a Girl: The king throws a glass of wine at the dancer Trippetta because she asked him to stop tormenting Hop-Frog. He and the courtiers who laughed pay for their cruelty when Hop-Frog turns them into a human chandelier. | |

Who's Laughing Now? | |
| Hop-Frog / int_f438b11b | comment |
Who's Laughing Now?: Hop-Frog’s revenge effectively makes a mockery of the king and his courtiers after being the subject of their mockeries for so long. This is especially highlighted by his last words to them: | |
