Child Eater	comment	In folklore, many different kinds of monsters kill and eat children and infants. Others merely make children seriously ill or cause them to vanish (replacing them with fairy changelings). These stories were explanations for the high infant mortality rates seen in primitive cultures. Naturally, various media use these tales as source material for their own monsters. Some media monsters target children to use them as a slave work-force. Some drain their Life Energy to stay alive. It is taken as a given that specifically targeting children, especially if you are planning on eating them, is a sure sign that you are a monster in the truest sense of the word. Differs from Eats Babies as this trope covers creatures who go after babies because they specifically target children, while Eats Babies is about villains so evil they would target babies but don't go out of their way to do so. By definition, though, most (but surprisingly not all) Child Eaters qualify for Eats Babies status. Given how long some of these stories have been around, this trope is Older Than Dirt. Related to Would Hurt a Child. Also see Eats Babies. God-Eating has a surprising amount of overlap, as gods try to eat younger gods.

Child Eater / int_14f9297e	comment	The Far Side: One comic depicts two parents telling a stereotypical-looking Wicked Witch, "Now let me get this straight. We hired you to babysit the kids, and instead you cooked and ate them BOTH?" In The Prehistory of The Far Side, a retrospective book, cartoonist Gary Larson expresses particular pride at emphasizing the word "both". Another comic has a witch with a house made of brussel sprouts, frustrated that a rival witch's gingerbread house is attracting all the kids to eat. Another had a witch telling her friend she's pregnant, the other witch thought she was being literal when she said she "has one in the oven."

Child Eater / int_1b021fcb	comment	Donato Porpora from Tokyo Ghoul is a Ghoul famous for his preference for child victims. To this end, he established himself as a Sinister Minister and opened a Catholic Orphanage where the children lived happily with their beloved "Father". Then, one by one, the children would be "adopted"... and suffer brutal deaths before being eaten. He even went so far as to feed leftovers to the other children disguised as treats. Eventually, his favorite child, Kotarou Amon, discovered him eating another child and his secret was revealed. Because he couldn't bring himself to kill Amon, he ended up captured and remains an infamous Ghoul considered vile even by other Ghouls.

To solve both problems, the faculty starts eating the children one by one and sending the kids to "detention" for even minor infractions to process them as cattle. The Salem Witch trial parody in another Halloween episode had Marge and her sisters, being witches for the act, take up the Flanders idea that they would eat children. On their way out of the Flanders's house, Ned offers them candy instead, which they take and get from the other families, starting the tradition of Trick-or-Treating. Then they mention having already eaten several children before they reached the Flanders house.

Child Eater / int_5450d6cb	comment	The froglike alien Tendu of The Color of Distance and Through Alien Eyes, have several life stages. In a case of Bizarre Alien Reproduction, early ones aren't very intelligent and not considered to be people. The first stage, the tadpole-like narey, feeds a lot of the wildlife. Eventually they metamorphize into the tinka, adult-shaped but smaller and not as smart. Tinka roam the jungles until they find Tendu villages, where they act as servants. They can age and die, or else get chosen by fully adult Tendu to go through another metamorphosis and become bami, who are intelligent and considered somewhere between children and apprentices. From there they potentially have two more metamorphoses. Bami and above, if female, can lay unfertilized eggs for animals to eat. It's seen as a common courtesy for a Tendu female, taking some narey from a pool to eat, to lay some eggs to feed the others. Dr. Juna Saari, a human stranded among the Tendu and taken in by them, is utterly horrified to learn that the narey, which she's been eating just like any of the other foods offered to her, are early-stage Tendu and it damages her ability to get along with the aliens for some time. One of her friends explains that they don't eat narey that have developed forelegs. Later, after reconnecting with humans again, Juna gets pregnant and plans to have her now-dear Tendu friends help her out as she isn't inclined to marry. The father, and quite a lot of Earth press, are against this and call the Tendu baby-eaters, which the aliens are indignant about. They understand quite well that there's a difference between a baby and a tadpole.

During the 50's, he ended up trapped with five kids in the basement of a hospital that caught fire and consumed them to stay alive, which caused him to become a supernatural entity of some kind. Now, every Halloween night, he strikes and feasts upon the trick-and-treaters who are filling the streets.

It rarely eats the dreams of adults because childrenâ€™s are much tastier." Banette's entry says it is "a doll that became a PokÃ©mon over its grudge from being junked. It seeks the child that disowned it." Maybe this is a story told to kids to make them appreciate gifts, but still... Drifloon might be a nasty one. Its entry says "It is whispered that any child who mistakes DRIFLOON for a balloon and holds on to it could wind up missing." Phantump's entry says â€˜According to old tales, these PokÃ©mon are stumps possessed by the spirits of children who died while lost in the forest." While that does not say it victimizes children, the other PokÃ©mon who do suggest Phantump may be the victims of such PokÃ©mon. Or victims of PokÃ©mon in general, given how many kids are trainers.

His appearance is clearly an homage to Freddy Krueger. In "I Only Have Eyes for You", Angelus is so disturbed by being forced to feel love (he and Buffy were possessed by the ghosts of dead lovers) that he insists on going out and killing a child to bring back a sense of evil in himself. In the third season episode "Band Candy", the demon Larconis requires a tribute in the form of a ritual feeding every thirty years. What does it feed on? Newborn babies. In the episode "Gingerbread", a demon actually creates a panic by falsely making people believe children have been killed. Buffy laments the fact that this creates a panic, but the daily killing of innocent adults doesn't even cause a stir. In "Triangle", Olaf the Troll demands he be brought babies to eat. Spike at first suggests they check the hospital, and then suggests onion flowers as an alternative. According to Anya, Santa Claus is real, but instead of leaving presents, he comes down chimneys to disembowel children on Christmas.
