Curses are a very old trope. Very old, as in Ancient Egypt old. They served as warnings to listeners against defying morality or doing the taboo, for fear of angering the gods and incurring some terrible punishment. What might bring down a curse? It depends entirely on the story. Eating Forbidden Fruit, crossing that bridge after midnight, speaking out of Pride or even unkindness to strangers can trigger a curse.
The curser might be a petty god, a witch, or even a normal person driven to great anger. Words and Language have power, especially spoken from the heart. Doubly so if the heart is filled with bitter rage. Triply so if the person is dying. But even in ordinary circumstances, Be Careful What You Say, or you may well cast a curse on a loved one. For that matter, if you make The Promise and say, "May [curse] fall on me if I fail!" you can curse yourself. Or the curse might not be cast by anyone at all, it may well be a 'maliceless' effect of breaking some taboo. And there's no guarantee that the cursed person is the offender; a Hereditary Curse may steadily descend through a family.
A curse may be Laser-Guided Karma, in which case it will fit the crime like a glove. Otherwise — and sometimes even when it is Laser-Guided Karma — curses are the very darkest of Black Magic.
The effect of the curse on a character and story is that of a potent driving force. Getting rid of it can drive a character to do great and terrible things. Enduring one can add drama and complicate a hero's life. Resolving it is cause for a satisfying resolution. Whatever the case, curses aren't minor things.
Curses can come in all shapes and sizes. Common curses include:
Bad luck, sometimes in the form of an actual "cloud" of misfortune following them.
A physical defect like BO, Involuntary Shapeshifting (and/or Forced Transformation), ugliness or clumsiness.
A Wound That Will Not Heal. (A milder form is a scar immune to Healing Hands or other healing magic.)
To die in some circumstance, or have a specific accident/event happen. This may overlap with prophecy, if the curse is merely a cruel but accurate divination.
To become The Punishment; an inhuman monster wracked with suffering who extends that suffering to anyone they can.
The curse may Include a Tongue-Tied clause that prevents the cursed character from saying they're cursed to make it more difficult to remove.
If you're a sports fan it means your sports team is forever doomed to not win a championship.
Curses can also be put on inanimate objects, such as swords, and places, both houses and lands. Places tend to turn to Mordor under curses, or at least smell bad, and both places and objects inflict bad things on the people about, or owning, them.
Curses can be cut short by:
Giving back a stolen item, apologizing, or otherwise setting right the original offense.
Completing an Impossible Task.
Dying and coming back, usually as part of finding a loophole in the curse.
Passing it on to someone else, like a bad penny.
Killing the curser or otherwise getting them to die. (Not effective in cases of a Dying Curse.)
Beat the Curse Out of Him: A less drastic tactic. Results vary.
For a country, putting the rightful king on the throne. (This may or may not fall under the first as well.)
The Power of Love. Sometimes this simply requires actually being loved by someone else, sometimes it requires the person to receive True Love's Kiss to seal the deal. Furthermore, many curses are susceptible to the Power of Love even if it's not supposed to be a condition of the curse.
For some reason, a curse that turns you into a member of the opposite sex is particularly hard to break, doubly so if you were a man.
It isn't awesome and was not meant as a blessing, this is a wicked spell intended to harm or even kill the cursed character. Common variants are the Gypsy Curse and the Curse of the Pharaoh. The Production Curse is this applied to the people involved in developing a product. Contrast the Protective Charm, which can block or lessen curses. See also One Curse Limit, in which a victim can only suffer a single curse at one time. See also Curse That Cures, when a character seeks out a curse because it will cure them of a sickness or injury as a side effect, or Geas, which is a curse that someone must constantly do on their own, or else die. See also Prayer of Malice, where someone petitions a generally benevolent deity to curse someone instead.
Inverted Trope to Blessing.

Made in Abyss has the "Curse of the Abyss", a phenomenon that causes adverse effects to those attempting to reach the surface after travelling into the Abyss. The further into the Abyss one travels, the greater the physical toll when resurfacing. Symptoms of the curse include (in order of ascending severity) dizzyness, nausea, vomiting, hallucinations, intense pain/numbness, severe hemorrhaging, increasing likelihood of self-injurious behavior, death, and loss of humanity.

Divinity: Original Sin II:
The Curse skill inflicts a multipurpose but short-lived debuff on a creature and can also corrupt or exacerbate the negative effects of certain environmental features. Cursed fire becomes Necrofire, cursed steam damages creatures and inflicts a Revive Kills Zombie effect, and so on.
Various Evil Sorcerer NPCs have access to more powerful and dramatic curses, like Braccus Rex, who doomed a group of heretics to exist as eternally burning pigs. PCs can't match these feats but can often undo them with the Bless skill.

The premise of Dragon Quest VIII is that everyone in the kingdom of Trodain except the main character has been cursed by the villainous Dhoulmagus. King Trode is now a little troll-like creature, Princess Medea is a horse, and everyone else is a statue. The main character escaped the curse because a memory wiping curse that was cast on him when he was younger had the beneficial side effect of rendering him immune to other curses.

Ranma ½:
Ranma Saotome fell into a cursed spring where a young girl drowned — as a result, whenever he is splashed with cold water he will turn into a girl. This is where most of the plot complications and comedy stem from. If he is splashed with hot water, he changes back.
Several other characters apparently fell into magical springs where something drowned in it, and suffer Involuntary Shapeshifting themselves.
Besides Ranma's curse there are several other curses as well as cursed objects. Such as the other cursed springs, the curse that a ghost placed on Happ�sai to get him to steal her panties, the cursed paintings, and more.

In Sluggy Freelance Zoe considers the necklace tattoo that gives her Involuntary Shapeshifting powers to be a curse. It wasn't designed to be that way; for the original wearer, it was a precious gift that allowed her to sneak around with her true love without her father knowing the truth. Obviously, the original wearer didn't have best friends who think turning you into a camel is funny.

Fear Street: When Sarah Fier was hanged for witchcraft, she laid a curse on Shadyside so that once a generation, her spirit is able to possess a person and drive them to go on a killing spree before dying themselves. Also, anyone who disturbs Sarah's bones will be marked for death and hunted by the reanimated ghouls of the past possession victims. In actuality, Sarah was innocent — she was framed for witchcraft by Solomon Goode to cover up his own Deal with the Devil, wherein he and his descendants use magic to enact the possessed killings as a sacrifice to Satan in exchange for prosperity. The ghouls, meanwhile, target the people who touch Sarah's bones because doing so grants visions of what really happened to Sarah, and can expose the deal.

Thank You for Taking Care of our Enchanted and Haunted Castle: The first owners of the castle was cursed by the Fairy Queen, becoming immortal at the cost of not being able to leave the castle. There are two Curse Escape Clauses however, one of which leads to the recipient of the letter being given the curse instead. Additionally, according to the letter, the previous owners have since moved on to ironic curses, meaning that they don't need their dungeons anymore.

Curses in the Dangerverse are a subclass of magic with certain specific rules and properties.
The most distinguishing feature of curses is that they are pseudo-intelligent, able to react to circumstances to a limited degree. This is key to most of their other unique properties.
When crafting a curse, the curser must designate a set of individuals that it can affect, this could be anything from "people bitten by those already under this curse" to "descendants of this individual" to "male pureblood wizards age 13". Once the curse comes into contact with someone who meets these criteria, it latches onto them and takes effect.
A curse cannot be removed by normal counter-magic, and does not wear off the first person it affects (unless it was programmed to do so).
A non-lethal curse can be removed by transferring it to someone else who meets the original criteria. The original victim will be cured almost instantly, and the curse will wear off the substitute victim over time.
A lethal curse cannot be transferred, but it can be turned with a willing sacrifice, causing it to rebound on the original caster.

Bloodborne has the curse of the Old Hunters, which is explored in the Old Hunters DLC - basically, whenever a hunter is driven to insanity and become blood-drunk, they get dragged down into the Hunter's Nightmare where they mindlessly kill and are killed for all of eternity - even Gehrman is affected by it, considering his often agitated sleep. The origin of this curse is as punishment for the Old Hunters, alongside their descendants, who took part in the slaughter of the Fishing Hamlet - including its people, their patron goddess Kos, and Kos's unborn child. The latter has become the centerpoint of the curse, and killing it and putting it to rest is the only way to dispel the curse for good.

Son of the Western Sea has Percy Jackson putting one on Chrysaor's crew of dolphin-men, which prevents them from ever stepping foot on a ship again.

The Writing on the Wall has Daring Do dismiss the eponymous writing as a curse meant to scare away tomb robbers from the ancient building. It is an entirely reasonable conclusion for an Adventurer Archaeologist to make, but unfortunately she is being Wrong Genre Savvy - the curse is a genuine warning of the danger of what the building was meant to contain: nuclear waste.

In Harry Potter, a "curse" appears to include any spell with a malevolent effect, particularly charms.
The Unforgivable Curses: the Cruciatus Curse (Crucio), used for torture; the Imperius Curse (Imperio), used for mind-control; and the Killing Curse (Avada Kedavra), which is Exactly What It Says on the Tin.
Unicorn blood will save you from dying "even if you are an inch from death", but you will live a "half-life" from the moment you drink it.
If a person continues to divide their soul, they lose their humanity, their skin turns grey, their eyes become like those of snakes as do their nose, their voice becomes terrifyingly scratchy and inhuman, they will and eventually suffer a Fate Worse than Death.
There are also curses that work in more traditional ways, e.g., jinxing the Defense Against The Dark Arts teaching position so that anyone who takes the job will never last longer than a year.
Objects can also be cursed. Touching one such object gets Dumbledore killed but Snape was able to contain the curse to his hand to buy him some more time.

The Nintendo Adventure Book The Crystal Trap features Ganon cursing all three pieces of Triforce to turn to crystal. Since the Triforce of Courage is in Link's heart, this meant he is trapped in crystal as well. Guided by the reader's choices, Zelda has 24 hours to find the three ingredients required to shatter the crystal before the spell becomes permanent.

Swan's Braid & Other Tales of Terizan: In "Sometimes, Just Because" a wizard in Oreen has cursed the city with hot weather, the Council is told by his servant. To break this, Terizan is hired for stealing the object which focuses this, a "curse anchor". However, it turns out this isn't the result of a curse-the servant wants her for another curse which affected her master.

In The Dresden Files, curses are various forms of nasty magic. Particularly dreadful is the "death curse," a wizard's last spell, Cast from Hit Points. Examples include:
Harry is under a death curse to die alone. Since he lives in the populous city of Chicago, this curse might have inadvertently made Harry very hard to kill.
In Blood Rites, it's revealed that Harry's mother's could not directly curse her killer, a powerful vampire, so she instead cursed him so he could not feed.
There's also the entropy curse, a magical working that causes luck to turn hideously against the target. Harry has seen entropy curses that are well put-together (causing falling masonry and snapped power lines to fall on the target) and... not so much (resulting in a target being hit by a car... while water-skiing, or crushed by a frozen turkey falling from an airplane).
The bloodline curse in Changes, which is meant to kill everyone related to the target of the curse, no matter how distant the connection. Originally intended for Harry's daughter so that he — and conveniently his grandfather Ebenezar McCoy a.k.a. the Blackstaff as well — would die by proxy, he turns it on the entire Red Court, wiping out one of the major players in the supernatural world in one fell swoop.
Fool Moon has the curse on Harley MacFinn's family line, which caused him to turn into a rampaging super-werewolf during the full moon. Said curse was supposedly laid by St. Patrick, though the source of that information (a demon) is questionable.
One short story in the series has Dresden investigating the Chicago Cubs' famous Curse of the Billy Goat (see "Sports" below, under "Baseball"). He discovers that it wasn't the goat's owner who actually cursed the team, but the goat. Which was really a disguised wildfae who took the complaints about its smell personally.

In Yu-Gi-Oh!, the protagonist, Yugi, solves an ancient puzzle which houses the spirit of a 5000 year old Pharaoh, and according to both the Dub and the original Japanese version, he is supposedly 'cursed'. It's a rather beneficial curse, though, as he gains an alter ego voiced by Dan Green and becomes an expert in all kinds of games, even beating the world champion in a card game the first time they play against each other. And it comes in handy during the "Waking The Dragons" Arc, where the Seal of Orichalcos, a regular card, seals the loser's soul. If having an extra soul was ever an advantage, this would be the time.

Whateley Universe:
Techwolf looks like a seven-foot werewolf, as does his father, all because of a witch's curse on an ancestor.
There's also the curse worked by Fey in "Christmas Elves" to karmically repay her enemies for all the evil they have done. Hekate manages to put her portion of it off with magical defenses of her own (and by running to the Necromancer for protection), but the curse is still out there waiting for her to come back out...

Discworld:
In Equal Rites, Granny Weatherwax assures Esk that she will curse under the right conditions, such as when people ain't showing respect. Often "curse" means that you tell someone you've cursed them and the next time something bad happens to them, they think "That was because I didn't show respect to the witch." Granny Weatherwax has been known to actually curse people, just in less traditional ways. For example, instead of turning someone into a frog just making them think that they are a frog. It's much easier and more fun too.
Later witches novels more or less follow the line that cursing works, but not unless they know you've done it. Unlucky Charlie, the target for the cursing at the Witch Trials, cannot be aware you've done it because he's a scarecrow, so points are given for general inventiveness. Except for the year when Granny Weatherwax made his head explode.

The Elenium has an unusual variant of a benevolent curse. A god wants to hide his followers from obliteration and simultaneously give them magical powers to defend themselves. A blessing won't do, because blessings "ring in the air" and are easily detectable by magical means. So the god uses a curse with the exact same effects instead. It is notable that, while benevolent, it's still a curse; the god can't bring himself to curse his beloved followers directly and curses their drinking water instead.

In Total Drama Presents: The Ridonculous Race, Josee curses herself and her partner Jacques by taking a Hawaiian lava rock to use as a good luck charm, causing them to do increasingly worse in the race until they manage to return it to Hawaii.

Hayate the Combat Butler: Athena, Mikado and Himegami have been placed under a curse for trying to steal the power of god. Exactly what these curses are hasn't been stated yet. Part of Athena's was to be stuck in the Royal Garden for eternity, though at least that part of the curse is no longer valid. And it's after this has been cleared that she talks about being cursed, so we know that's not all there is to it.

In Final Fantasy III, Djinn curses the kingdom of Sasune and turns everyone in the kingdom of Sasune to ghosts. Two future party members, Ingus and Refia, missed getting cursed because neither was around when the curse hit. The only way to lift the curse is with Princess Sara's Mythril Ring, which needs to seal the Djinn inside and then be purified.

The Tonberries in Final Fantasy XIV are actually Lalafells that were cursed by a monster as it inflicted a contagious plague on them upon dying. The curse made the Tonberries become filled with rancor and anger, effectively becoming hostile. The source of the rancor comes from the Tonberry King in the Wanderer's Palace. Slaying him restores the Tonberries emotions back to normal, but they are still stuck in their Tonberry form. In the hard mode version of the same dungeon, the Tonberries are captured by the Mamool Ja as slaves and you're tasked with saving them. The Scholar job quest lines also has a friendly Tonberry who aids you.

In Inuyasha, Miroku's family was cursed by Naraku with the Wind Tunnel: a black hole in the palm of the right hand that's passed down through each generation. The Wind Tunnel absorbs everything in front of it unless sealed by enchanted prayer beads, and it's constantly expanding which culminates in it being strong enough to break the seal and consume its bearer and all that surrounds him, just like it has already done with Miroku's father and grandfather. The only way for Miroku to free himself and his descendants from this fate is to kill Naraku. It almost, almost fails since the Tunnel not only gets bigger but brings other horrible effects to Miroku's body, but when Inuyasha and Kagome manage to definitely defeat Naraku, the Tunnel disappears and he's saved. The children that he and Sango have some time later are completely free of any effects.

In The Keys Stand Alone: The Soft World, the Pyar gods are (usually) cursed with the inability to communicate except in roundabout fashion with sayings, poems, and riddles.
Which turns out to be the Last Wizard's curse, and some of the “Gods Chat� and other elements of the Con Fusion are her attempt to guide the four into removing her curse.
A minor example is the cursed dying baby that the four have to save by finding the countercurse in a nearby crumbling citadel.

Speaking of curses, Tales of the Frog Princess has many.
A curse turns Eadric into a frog, and backfires when Emma kisses him with her curse-repelling bracelet, which turns her into a frog.
A curse that has far more impact on Emma, her family, and the next couple books is one placed on their family a few hundred years before, fating any female ancestor of Princess Hazel to turn into an ugly, evil old hag if she touches a flower after her sixteenth birthday. The curse affects the Queen Mother, Olivine and Grassina before Emma is able to have it lifted.
Haywood, Grassina's fiancé, was turned into an otter for decades by Olivine, just because she wanted to make Grassina miserable.

With Strings Attached: C'hou is riddled with curses, which seem to be easy to cast.
Lyndess was cursed by the Dalns gods to remain on Ketafa until she figures out how to cross the ocean without using any sort of vessel (ships sink under her, it's too far to swim, etc.). Another thing that will break the curse is if she apologizes to the god who cursed her, but she can't, because...
Ketafa itself is under a curse: the gods cannot see anything on the continent. Although in reality, the gods are just ignoring the continent, but no-one knows this.
As'taris is cursed to return to his house every evening until Brox returns or he dies. (Brox did this to ensure that As would not go skylarking off after rumors of monsters.) Also, he's cursed not to initiate combat with anyone. He often tries to get people to fight him, but no one will. After he's accidentally killed when Paul explodes, he runs off (with a very annoyed Grunnel in tow to keep him from disappearing) to surprise Brox at the Wizards University. It Makes Sense in Context.

Denmark is the one to tell transfer student Finland that Sweden's parents died in a house fire, his childhood sweetheart drowned while they were out on a picnic, and his roommate (the last Finland to attend the academy) committed suicide. Sweden is actually the unwitting host of a malevolent spirit called "Ancient Scandinavia", who takes control of Sweden's body to attack anyone who gets too close to the boy. All the "mysterious deaths" were murders committed by Ancient Scandinavia.

The page quote comes from Tolkien's Legendarium, specifically, The Children of Húrin, an expanded version of a chapter from The Silmarillion. After the Nírnaeth Arnoediad (Battle of Unnumbered Tears), Morgoth captures Húrin and tortures him into revealing the location of the fabled Elven city of Gondolin. When he refuses, the Dark Lord curses him by decreeing that his family will lead a life of suffering until the very end, while Húrin, helplessly chained atop Thangorodrim, can only watch. Húrin is released after watching his wife and children die one after another, and, wrought with grief, he eventually throws himself into the sea, but not before unwittingly revealing the location of Gondolin to Morgoth's spies, thus fulfilling the curse and making his defiance all the more pointless.

In one version of The Saga of Hervor and Heidrek, the dwarves who forged the sword Tyrfing were forced to do it on pain of death. As repayment, they cursed it so that once unsheathed, it must take a life before it can be resheathed, that it would lead to the death of the man who made them forge it, and that it would be used to commit three great acts of treachery.

In Misfits, one of Rudy's many one-night stands is upset that he doesn't want to date her and curses him so that his penis starts to rot. Simon has a vision that if he doesn't figure out how to stop the curse, it will fall off. It looks so bad that many people gasp or scream at the sight of it. At the end of the episode, he apologizes to her, and she reverses it.

In Turning Red, when Ming explains to Mei the origin of their family's heredity ability to turn into giant red pandas, Mei immediately comes to the conclusion that it is a Hereditary Curse and that her ancestor cursed them.

Heroes of the Storm has a map dedicated to this trope: Cursed Hallow. The Raven Lord demands tribute and the team that collects three will earn his favor. He will curse the opposing team reducing their minions to 1 Hit Point and preventing their towers from attacking.

An integral part of the setting and mechanics of Exalted. With their dying breaths, the defeated Primordials enacted the Great Curse upon the victorious Exalted Host. The exact effects of the curse vary by Exalt type, with the effects being more severe the more powerful the type, but generally revolve around With Great Power Comes Great Insanity.

Black Clover has Curse Magic, which adds effects to spells that are harmful to enemies. Gordon Agrippa is an expert at hexes and comes from an infamous lineage of Curse Mages. The devil Megicula, and its host Vanica, has Curse-Warding Magic, which casts powerful curses that manifest as marks on others. The curses can deteriorate someone's body to eventual death, resurrect a person, and corrupt magic arrays, and can only be stopped by defeating the caster.

MYth: A Promise has Gaia, Mother Earth herself, cursing Zeus to never know true love. And because it's Gaia's, the "prank" is impossible to fight or break. The curse is Zeus sees an illusion of Metis on girls and his lust controls his mind until he possess them. When he's back to his senses, he feels guilty, empty and lost.

Geist: The Sin-Eaters features a Manifestation known as "The Curse" that results in different afflictions depending on what Key the Sin-Eater uses to power it. For instance, the afflicted may be the center of a contagious Hate Plague (or other suitable emotion) (Passion), have every mechanical object he tries to handle explode in his hands (Industrial), have nature turn against him (Primeval), become burdened by some unknown weight and unable to sleep (Grave-Dirt), or unable to communicate with anyone (Stillness).

American Dad!: One episode has Stan yell at an elderly man for holding up a line, arrogantly declaring that the elderly are useless, and young people like him actually have ambitions (for him, climbing Kilimanjaro) to get on with. Fittingly, Stan is cursed to rapidly age into an old man. After climbing Kilimanjaro (expecting to be transformed back), he concedes that being old doesn't mean your life is over... which turns him into a young black man. Stan then realises his last interaction with a black person was "not positive".

Cursed Princess Club: As the title says, every member of the club is suffering from a magical curse put upon them, for which there has yet to be a cure.
The President, Princess Calperina of the Polygon Kingdom, AKA “Prez�, was stabbed by a syringe containing were-spider venom. Now every month, during her “monthly cycle�, she transforms into a huge man-eating spider.
Princess Abbi of the Neon Kingdom was given a box that was supposed to give her eternal happiness, just as long as she never opened it. So, of course, she opened it. The box punished her by giving her the physical appearance of an old lady at age fifteen, scaring off her crush and making her a pariah among her schoolmates.
Princess Monika of the Quilt Kingdom was kidnapped as a child by a wizard and turned into a crow to become his pet. She was rescued, but the curse could not be lifted entirely. She retains her human form most of the time, but when she gets nervous, she turns back into a crow.
Princess Syrah was given a box of enchanted chocolates by a boyfriend who suspected her of cheating on him. The chocolates were laced with a “Pinocchio’s Curse� that makes her nose grow when she lies. As it turns out, Syrah really was cheating on her boyfriend, so I don’t think he felt too guilty about cursing her.
The King and Queen of the Lace Kingdom made a Deal with the Devil to save their dying kingdom. After their daughter, Princess Jolie was born, the devil man came to collect. He wanted the finest of what they had—their daughter’s bright, beautiful eyes. Despite the King and Queen’s best efforts, he took Jolie’s eyes, and in their place, he left dark, empty, bottomless holes that also served as pocket dimensions. On the plus side, the holes do make great storage on the go.
Princess Nell of the Stripe Kingdom has the power to predict the future. Instead of praising her gift, her Abusive Parents locked her away in the dungeon and exploited her curse for their own benefit.
Princess Thermidora used to be a lobster princess who lived under the sea, courted by a handsome lobster baron. An evil sea cucumber was jealous and turned Thermidora into a human to force her out of the ocean and away from her love so the sea cucumber could steal him. Now Thermidora has the form of a human, but since the spell was incomplete, she still has her big red lobster claws.
Prince Saffron of the Foliage Kingdom, The One Guy in the club, had his hand cursed by a sorcerer. Now the hand has a mind of it’s own, and will rarely submit to what Saffron wants.
Princess Aurelia of the Gilded Kingdom has a “lovingly overprotective stepfather� who gifted her a cursed necklace before she went to sleepaway camp, making anything that touches her mouth disintegrate, so no boys would want to kiss her. Of course, he didn’t count on the curse staying even after she took the necklace off.
Aurelia’s best friend, Princess Renee of the Velvet Kingdom, was caught gossiping with her sister about a witch, by the subject of their chatter herself. The witch cursed Renee to spill frogs out of her mouth whenever she talks. Her sister got cursed, too, but instead of frogs, she spills out gold coins, so while Renee is the Black Sheep of her family, her sister gets invited to every party. Talk about unfairness among sisters.
Prez’s ex-fiancé, Prince Whitney of the Monochrome Kingdom, survived her attack on him as a were-spider and booked it back to his own castle. His brother decided to welcome him back by attempting to curse him into a tiger with a tainted drink, then kill and skin him, and wear his pelt. Luckily for him, Whitney spit out most of the drink. He didn’t turn into a tiger, but he did get black tiger stripes on his face.
Though Princess Gwendolyn of the Pastel Kingdom does not seem to believe she has a curse, since she has been the way she is for as long as she can remember, her friends in the club start to suspect she may be cursed after all after seeing a picture of Gwen with her family. Gwen’s older sisters, Maria and Lorena, are both Princess Classics who are so beautiful that birds do their hair and flowers spring up wherever they sleep. Her twin brother, Jamie, is so gorgeous that he literally sparkles and Even the Guys Want Him. Meanwhile, Gwen has sickly green skin, stringy green hair, fangs, demon-like eyes, and cannot smile at someone without looking frightening. Of course, the children have an overprotective dad who has kept them all locked away from the rest of the world for most of their lives, so none of them ever realized that the way Gwen looked was abnormal. Because of the differences between her and the rest of her siblings, the other members of the CPC start to wonder if she may be cursed after all and just not know it yet.

One episode of The Middleman has a survivor of the Titanic cursed with immortality so long as his tuba remains intact for his heinous crime: pretending that the tuba was his child and thus stealing the seats of a woman and her child. The tuba itself is an Artifact of Death capable of killing anyone who hears its E Flat note by filling their lungs with the icy waters of the North Atlantic. After decades, though, he comes to consider himself Cursed with Awesome.

In Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell, the Gentleman does this to Jonathan Strange, cursing him to 'Darkness, misery, and Solitude'. In practice this means he is surrounded by eternal night, everyone flees the eternal night in terror, and he deliberately and literally drives himself mad in a quest to free his wife.As it turns out, because of the imprecision of the spell the darkness entraps any English magician who comes into contact with it, starting with Mr. Norrell. The Raven King also cursed a few places during his reign, mostly over matters of civil unrest or rebellion.

The Stormlight Archive: There is an Enigmatic Empowering Entity called the Nightwatcher who, if you visit her, will give you a single boon and a single curse. One minor character thinks she's a Literal Genie and you can get out of it with Exact Words, but a more knowledgeable character explains it doesn't work like that; you ask for a boon, and the Nightwatcher gives you a curse that she thinks is equivalent. Sometimes it's an ironic twist of the wish, but usually it's something completely unrelated. Known curses/boons include:
A farmer who asked for a large pile of expensive cloth to sell so his family could make it through a harsh winter. His curse was to see the world upside down for the rest of his life; it was weird, but he got used to it.
Taravangian asked for "the capacity to stop what was coming." He was gifted with randomly fluctuating intelligence (paired with compassion that fluctuates in the opposite direction; ie, he's nicer on his stupider days). This resulted in him reaching god-level intelligence and writing a Diagram to save the world by conquering it. In Oathbringer he clarifies that he asked for "the capacity and the compassion to stop what was coming." His curse is that he doesn't get both at the same time.
Lift asked to never age or change, and assumed the Nightwatcher made her into The Ageless. She didn't; instead she moved Lift slightly into the Cognitive Realm, giving her a number of strange abilities like metabolizing food into Stormlight and touching spren. Quite a few knowledgeable people point out that this is really really weird, even by the Nightwatcher's standards, and the Stormfather grumpily says that the whole thing is probably a prank the Nightwatcher is playing on him.
Dalinar doesn't remember exactly what he asked for, but the result was that he lost all memories of his wife, to the point that he can't even hear her name when it is spoken. Things get weird in Oathbringer when those memories slowly start coming back; no one has ever heard of one of the Nightwatcher's curses wearing off. Dalinar had burned an entire town alive for rebelling against his brother, unaware that his wife was inside begging the people to surrender. The guilt was driving him insane, and he asked the Nightwatcher for "forgiveness." She couldn't give it to him (it's implied she didn't even understand what he was asking for) so her mother, the Shard Cultivation, stepped in to give a deal instead. She "pruned" Dalinar's memories, including his memories of his wife, to give him the opportunity to move past his compulsions and become a better man. The curse was that eventually those memories would return, and he would be forced to overcome them.

Dungeons & Dragons:
Bestow Curse (the reversal of the Remove Curse spell) is of the "cloud of misfortune type".
The Geas/Quest spells force the target to follow a certain course of action.
Cursed items can have such fun effects as changing your species, gender, alignment or making your hair grow longer... once
The Book of Vile Darkness has a nice assortment of alternate Curse effects, including sterility, blindness and deafness, the next person the target is introduced to will hate the target uncontrollably forever, critical successes become critical failures, all creatures of a designated species are permanently invisible to the target, age the target one age category, and cause all the target's wealth to vanish. It also has an assortment of Greater Bestow Curse alternate effects, including permanent destruction of one of the target's magic items, give an incurable disease to a friend or family member of the target, the target's touch turns precious metals into lead, the target cannot use spells from any source, and the particularly nasty all the target's friends and family suddenly hate him/her.
The Book of Erotic Fantasy obviously adds STDs and impotence to the possible effects of a curse.
Fourth edition brings us the Warlock class power Warlocks's Curse, which allows you to curse one foe as a minor action, who then takes more damage from any Warlock power you use on them, once per round.
Ravenloft, in addition to making the normal D&D curse spells harder to get rid of, has "curses of vengeance" which can be invoked by any character on somebody they believe has wronged them (whether or not they've actually wronged them). They can have pretty much any effect the players and/or DM can come up with from merely annoying to deadly. They aren't guaranteed to work, though. In-story, this is because for a curse to take effect in Ravenloft, it has to attract the attention of the Dark Powers controlling the setting. A Dying Curse or one that comes with a Curse Escape Clause is much more likely to attract said attention.

The WWE Smackdown Vs. Raw had a short run of a curse, The Curse of the Undertaker. Eddie Guerrero was involved in a storyline with Taker that ended in him buried alive. Two days before its North American release... well, Eddie died. A game later, Undertaker said "Your grieving family will have no-one but you to blame when the inevitable occurs." Nothing too big, but he said it to Chris Benoit, who killed himself and his family the next year. A year after that, Randy Orton was injured after an in game feud with Taker.

The Enchanted Files: Diary of a Mad Brownie / Cursed features one (naturally, given the title of the paperback edition). Said curse is carried by the eldest male of every generation of Cairns (passed on to them at the previous elder Cairns' death — so far, only Seamus Cairns and his son Angus have carried it) and causes any male of the McGonagall family that a Cairns is living with to try and make beautiful poetry, rhymes or lyrics, to the exclusion of all else (thereby severely messing up their lives), but their creations always come out wretched. It's eventually revealed that the curse was placed on the Cairns family by Greer M'Greer, Queen of Scotland's Enchanted Realm (also known as the Queen of Shadows) in retaliation for Seamus helping Ewan McGonagall by carrying messages between he and the Queen's daughter, who fell in love with him, began wasting away, and ultimately left the Enchanted Realm to be with him as a result, since she felt she could not live without him.

In Equal Rites, Granny Weatherwax assures Esk that she will curse under the right conditions, such as when people ain't showing respect. Often "curse" means that you tell someone you've cursed them and the next time something bad happens to them, they think "That was because I didn't show respect to the witch." Granny Weatherwax has been known to actually curse people, just in less traditional ways. For example, instead of turning someone into a frog just making them think that they are a frog. It's much easier and more fun too.

The Legend of Zelda:
The Legend of Zelda: There's one pertaining the red/blue bubbles from the Second Quest. Touching a red one disables Link's sword until the player locates and touches a blue one.
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past:
Anyone who enters the Dark World is transformed into a form reminiscent of what's inside their heart. Which doesn't explain why Link turns into a bunny. The seven maidens sent into the Dark World to break the seal on it are cursed to turn into crystals. Carrying a special pearl allows Link to ward off the curse.
A tiny demon curses Link to only use half of his magic power per spell. In other words, the demon's "curse" turns out to be extremely beneficial.
In the Nintendo Power comic version, people who enter the Dark Realm change into monsters when they lose control of their emotions, and those who can't control them turn into monsters permanently. Link eventually gets his under control and it stops affecting him, but he meets an archer named Roam who eventually succumbs.
The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask:
Link is cursed to become a Deku Scrub by Skull Kid in the game's prologue.
If he touches a Blue Bubble, he is "jinxed" to be unable to draw his sword for a period of time.
Kafei gets turned into a child by Skull Kid, right before he's about to marry his fiance Anju. Link has to go through a subquest to get them back together. The end of the game never shows if he broke the curse, but he's never shown during his wedding and the point of view is much higher than that of a child. In the manga retelling, the Kafei subplot is revealed to be a Karmic Transformation brought on by Kafei picking fun of Skull Kid's age... hence Skull Kid turning him into a kid as well.
The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker: Ganon sends a powerful attack that not only destroys Greatfish Isle, but also curses the entire Great Sea into an endless night with rain and storms. It's liften when Link manages to reunite all Goddess Pearls (he has two by the time he arrives the destroyed island, so he only needs to look for the third).
The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap: Ezlo, in the game's backstory, was turned into a hat by his former apprentice Vaati.
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess: Being in the realm of Twilight turns him into a wolf. Later, he is cursed to turn into a wolf by Zant, even when in the World of Light. It's also revealed that Midna herself used to be a Twili, but was cursed into the form of an imp by Zant.
In The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, Demise forever dooms Link's and Zelda's reincarnations to face an everlasting cycle of his hatred taking form and wreaking havoc on the world, essentially causing every other game in the series to happen.
The Nintendo Adventure Book The Crystal Trap features Ganon cursing all three pieces of Triforce to turn to crystal. Since the Triforce of Courage is in Link's heart, this meant he is trapped in crystal as well. Guided by the reader's choices, Zelda has 24 hours to find the three ingredients required to shatter the crystal before the spell becomes permanent.

Monstrous Compendium Online:
Early on, the biggest threat the players face is lycanthropy. It takes them a long time to even confirm it can be cured, and longer still before they can do so reliably. Technically, it's two separate afflictions; one attacks the body (and once you get used to it is basically just a cool shapeshifting power), while the other attacks the soul (turning you into a ravening monster).
The entire SAO deathgame is a curse ritual building up to forcing the players into Eberron to fight for the real Aincrad. It's pointed out that even for an ancient dragon, cursing twenty thousand people takes a lot of power, which is why the game is fair. Beniryuu had to use every trick to lower the cost of the curse.

Sweet & Bitter Magic:
Tamsin has been cursed to not feel love. She gets other people's love in return for doing spells which they need.
A nymph also was hired to poison a golden apple to kill a woman's stepdaughter, with it going awry to destroy an entire year's apple crop instead.

Phineas and Ferb: The episode "My Fair Goalie" reveals Ferb had been under the effects of the "emu curse" - he held the soccer ball while a herd of emus carried off the assistant coach, cursing him to never be on a winning team again. To break it, a boy in a sunday bonnet has to sing the note E flat about high C before him.

Karate a Muerte en Torremolinos: As Jess failed to share all of his hashish with Miyagi, Miyagi curses Jess with an illness that causes non-stop itching all over his body, and that can only be healed by him having sex - even if he has made a chastity vow until he's 24. The curse is done by Miyagi grabbing his own snot and throwing it to Jess's mouth.

Sophie in Howl's Moving Castle, cursed to be an old woman and be unable to tell anyone her plight. It appears that her remembering that she is cursed is a key in the curse maintaining its effects. That, or her self-esteem issues. Whenever she appears more confident, she grows younger. When she goes back to being shy, she ages up. The book the film is adapted from features the same curse, which Howl attempts to secretly break on his own but discovers Sophie is unconsciously retaining on herself. Later, her concern for an injured Howl overcomes her shyness and the curse finally lifts.

Frozen: Anna is cursed (accidentally) by Elsa, while revealing to her sister a different curse (the Endless Winter) she'd brought about, by having a piece of ice put into her heart, which will slowly and painfully freeze her into an ice statue from the inside out. In both cases, it's The Power of Love that undoes the curse, but in Anna's case, it does not come from True Love's Kiss, but from defending her sister from the evil prince she thought she loved.

Discussed in The Magic School Bus episode where the class goes to the rainforest to try to figure out why the cocoa tree they bought for Ms. Frizzle isn't producing cocoa beans. They arrive to meet Inspector 47, who is in charge of overseeing the part of the rainforest Ms. Frizzle's tree is in and has kept the area mud-free — 47 believes his co-worker Inspector 46 is jealous of how clean 47 has kept his section of the rainforest and placed a curse on the trees in 47's section to not produce cocoa beans. It turns out to be 47's fault for the lack of cocoa beans, though not on purpose — he had laid down artificial turf and chased the native insects and warthogs away to keep the ground clean and mud-free, but doing so stopped insects from coming around to breed which also stopped them from providing the pollination necessary for the cocoa trees to flower and produce beans.

In Uzumaki, the town of Kurôzu-cho, Japan is cursed by the horrifying Spiral, causing terrible things to befall citizens of the town, like people forcibly contorting themselves into Spiral shapes (dying in the process), or hair curling into spirals on young girls heads and causing hypnotic effects on their peers, and even making lighthouses emit such powerful beams of light that it burns up people who get to close to it. The Curse causes people in the town to slowly loose their minds just THINKING about the shape.

The Lightlark Saga: One of the main plot elements of Lightlark is that every realm in the world has been under a curse the past five hundred years, with each realm's curse having a unique effect on them. Some of these curses tend to make life pretty difficult or can potentially cripple a realm, and the main plot revolves around the protagonists trying to break the curses.

In Final Fantasy IX, Cid's wife Hilda turns him into an Oglop as punishment for cheating on her and runs off in the only non-Mist powered airship in the world. This turns out to be supremely bad timing since Kuja has just manipulated Alexandria into attacking Lindblum. He later tries to undo it but ends up turning into a frog instead. Eventually they have to track his wife down and convince her to undo her curse. Wouldn't you know it, Kuja also kidnapped her since he needed her ship. When she's finally rescued, she changes Cid back, but threatens to curse him again if he ever acts unfaithfully again.

In Beyond the Beyond, super-strong knight Samson faces off against the sorceress Ramue (one half of the Big Bad Duumvirate) early on in the game. She throws a dark magic-infused scarf at him, which he dodges at first, but ultimately wraps around him and saddles him with a curse so powerful that ordinary priests can't remove it. The curse sticks with Samson until the party ascends to Heaven and personally asks Arawn (the God of this setting) to have it lifted.

Oddly Enough: In "The Hardest, Kindest Gift", Melusine imprisons her father in the heart of a mountain out of anger for his role as The Oathbreaker, which led she, her sisters and her mother to be trapped on Avalon. In retaliation, her mother Pressina curses her to assume a monstrous form once a week, making her a snake from the waist down and giving her enormous bat-like wings, until she can find a man who never seeks to learn her secret. When her husband does reveal he has learned her true nature, her transformation becomes permanent, as well as making her immortal until someone can break the curse.

Rome:
After Caesar rejects her for political reasons, his mistress Sevillia writes out a formal curse according to Roman custom. It doesn't work, so she conspires to his assassination instead. Later she curses her long-time rival Atia, and this curse appears to be more effective, possibly because she sacrifices herself to invoke it — Atia's son gains all the power she wanted for him, but Atia loses the love of her life Marc Antony.
After discovering his wife's infidelity, and realizing his children were keeping the secret from him, Vorenus curses them all to damnation. This is Serious Business for a Roman so Vorenus is aghast when he returns to his house and finds them missing. Pullo assures him he can just lift the curse when his children return. They don't, having been abducted and sold into slavery by an enemy of Vorenus while he was absent.

In Dragon Quest Builders, set in a What If? scenario of Dragon Quest where the Dragonlord tricked the Hero into joining him and giving him "half the world", the villain cursed humanity into forgetting how to craft and build, which happened whenever they set to build something, effectively sending them back to the stone age and leaving them to struggle in the desolated land; and when confronted by the Builder, he claims that building goes against the true nature of humankind. As the Builder, you're responsible to re-enlighten humankind and (by your own choice) paying back to the Dragonlord.

The entire plot of Ella Enchanted is driven by a curse placed on Ella as a child that makes her unable to ignore orders. Usually she gets around it by finding loopholes in the orders she's given, but this becomes hazardous when Prince Charmont falls in love with her and they begin to become entangled. Ella is rightfully concerned that because of her condition, she could be ordered into hurting him. The curse is resolved when Ella tries so hard to refuse Char's order to marry him that her love for him overcomes the curse. Then she marries him of her own free will.

Penelope (2006) has the titular Penelope receive a hundred-plus-year-old curse on her family that their first born daughter would be ugly until she were accepted by "one of her own." This is why her parents went about trying to get her married, but it turns out the curse can be interpreted as "when she accepts herself." As soon as she becomes okay with the idea that she's going to be ugly forever, and it's not a cause for angst, does the curse lift.

In Thinner, a man is getting a handjob from his wife while driving. He hits and kills a young Gypsy woman. When he avoids justice by using his connections in a Screw the Rules, I Have Money! way, the woman's father gives the protagonist a Gypsy Curse that causes him to waste away. (His judge and lawyer are cursed with hideous acne and skin cancer that will eventually kill them too.) His response is to track down the gypsy and curse him — by taking out a contract with a hit man to kill his family.

The only thing the Gleeban priests know of Stellestria is the unending curses she produced until her dying day.
The Ondor Cliffs north of Gleeba are dotted with graves — these are the graves of Stellestria's enemies, and its suggested that each of the graves' epitaphs is a curse against Stellestria in turn, some of which are pretty powerful in their own right. The first one you read appears to have been scratched into the stone with claws.

Discussed several times in Case Closed. Since it's set in a country with a rich mythology but the series itself is (practically) devoid of any actual magic, whenever a supposed "curse" takes place and causes deaths as a result, it's always a murder committed by a Genre Savvy human who takes advantage of said mythology to stage said kills.

In The Book of Mormon, Elder Cunningham is reading the part of the Book where the Lord becomes displeased with the Laminites and turns their skin black, and then stops when he realizes that it's probably not the best part to be reading to Africans. The version of the Book that the Africans finally learn from Cunningham is somewhat different, including a story about God punishing Brigham Young for cutting off his daughter's clitoris by changing his nose into one.

In A Song of Ice and Fire, we get plenty of cursing and a few actual curses/ spiteful prophesies/ blood magic rituals which may or may not work, depending on the beliefs of the chracter and how much a person or reader buys into the workings of either Self-Fulfilling or Self-Defeating Prophecy — or, the possibly-returning-to-full-strength-after-a-breather magic. One thing most in the Seven Kindoms agree on, though, regardless of their individual levels of belief or scepticism: if Harrenhal is not actually under a known, specifically-worded curse (there are plenty of rumours about vague dying curses, the blood of innocents used in mortar triggering things, parents' invoking curses due to slain children, divine vengeance for the breaking of oathes — the whole enchilada; any or all of it plausible according to various beliefs married to events that have occurred), it's got the next best thing to it clinging to its stones. So much bad stuff has happened in and around it over just its relatively young 300 years, that it gives far more ancient keeps and castles, like even the dead scary Nightfort, a run for their ghost story money. And, usually beats them.

The Pokémon series has a move called "Curse". When a Ghost-type Pokémon uses it, it sacrifices half the user's maximum HP and saps ¼ of the opponent's HP every turn afterwards. If a non-Ghost type Pokémon uses it, the move just cuts the user's Speed stat to raise their Attack and Defense.
It is also a legend that Ninetales will put a 1000-year curse on anyone foolish enough to touch one of its tails.
This was a plot point in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team and the comic of it. The main character believes that he's cursed to be a Pokémon because in a past life he grabbed a Ninetales' tail and let his friend Gardevoir take the curse in his place (as a legend has it). It turns out that Gengar was the human who left Gardevoir to take the heat.

The characters Salabesh the Onyx and Jumble Murdersense in Planescape: Torment: the former overheard someone defining him as a kind person, and cursed him to defecate from his mouth and speak through his anus; even the (usually unfazed) main character reacts to that with a Big "WHAT?!".The latter cursed Reekwind to a life of uncontrollable flatulence and B.O., and will curse the Nameless One with hiccups should he speak to him.You can then give him a taste of his own medicine by learning and using one that silences him, preventing him from countering with one of his own.

Not surprisingly, this shows up in Final Fantasy a few times.
The recurring spell "Curse" appears in multiple games. Effects across the games include reduced stats, preventing limit break use, stopping job changes in battle, inflicting a variety of other status ailments, stopping the DMW wheel, or reducing the amount of successful interrupts by a character while increasing the number of successful interrupts by an enemy.
Another recurring spell, "Doom", starts a timer that kills the afflicted character when the timer runs out. In Final Fantasy VIII, the Curse spell actually inflicts Doom, though the Curse status ailment is a separate entity.
In Final Fantasy, the prince of the elves was cursed by the dark elf Astos with eternal sleep. Only an herb from the witch Matoya can wake him. Unfortunately, she's blind and needs a special eye to see...and Astos stole it from her.
In Final Fantasy III, Djinn curses the kingdom of Sasune and turns everyone in the kingdom of Sasune to ghosts. Two future party members, Ingus and Refia, missed getting cursed because neither was around when the curse hit. The only way to lift the curse is with Princess Sara's Mythril Ring, which needs to seal the Djinn inside and then be purified.
In Final Fantasy Tactics, the character Reis was cursed into the form of a dragon when she took on a curse intended for her lover, Beowulf. Because The Mind Is a Plaything of the Body, she also appears to have no memory of her life as a human either, though the dragon Reis still joins the party when Beowulf rescues her. He eventually changes her back when the party recovers the Cancer Zodiac Stone and she joins the party as a "Dragonkin" (Dragoner in the PS1 version) with all her dragon skills.
In Final Fantasy IX, Cid's wife Hilda turns him into an Oglop as punishment for cheating on her and runs off in the only non-Mist powered airship in the world. This turns out to be supremely bad timing since Kuja has just manipulated Alexandria into attacking Lindblum. He later tries to undo it but ends up turning into a frog instead. Eventually they have to track his wife down and convince her to undo her curse. Wouldn't you know it, Kuja also kidnapped her since he needed her ship. When she's finally rescued, she changes Cid back, but threatens to curse him again if he ever acts unfaithfully again.
The Tonberries in Final Fantasy XIV are actually Lalafells that were cursed by a monster as it inflicted a contagious plague on them upon dying. The curse made the Tonberries become filled with rancor and anger, effectively becoming hostile. The source of the rancor comes from the Tonberry King in the Wanderer's Palace. Slaying him restores the Tonberries emotions back to normal, but they are still stuck in their Tonberry form. In the hard mode version of the same dungeon, the Tonberries are captured by the Mamool Ja as slaves and you're tasked with saving them. The Scholar job quest lines also has a friendly Tonberry who aids you.

Ravenloft, in addition to making the normal D&D curse spells harder to get rid of, has "curses of vengeance" which can be invoked by any character on somebody they believe has wronged them (whether or not they've actually wronged them). They can have pretty much any effect the players and/or DM can come up with from merely annoying to deadly. They aren't guaranteed to work, though. In-story, this is because for a curse to take effect in Ravenloft, it has to attract the attention of the Dark Powers controlling the setting. A Dying Curse or one that comes with a Curse Escape Clause is much more likely to attract said attention.

Jorian helps him break the curse by marrying Margalit (making her a Queen, as he's technically still the King of Xylar) and having her wash part of the floor, releasing the ghost of his torment.

The Chicago Cubs and the Curse of the Billy Goat. As the story goes, during Game 4 of the 1945 World Series a bar owner named Billy Sianisnote The bar inspired the "Cheeborger cheeborger" Saturday Night Live sketch starring Chicago-area native John Belushi brought his pet goat named Murphy to the game at Wrigley Field (even purchasing a separate ticket), but was kicked out because the goat's odor was bothering others. Sianis was infuriated and declared, "Them Cubs, they ain't gonna win no more."note His family claims he later sent a telegram to the Cubs' owner saying, "You are going to lose this World Series and you are never going to win another World Series again. You are never going to win a World Series again because you insulted my goat." The Cubs lost that game, lost the series, and did not play a World Series game again until 2016, the longest pennant drought in baseball. (The Cubs also hold the record for longest World Series drought - until their 2016 World Series victory, they hadn't won a championship since 1908.) Highlights since:
The 1969 season. This was the first year each league was split into two divisions, and the Cubs had an 8 1/2-game lead in the NL East in mid-August and still held a 5-game on September 2nd over the second-place New York Mets. The Cubs then collapsed while the Mets went on a tear, ending with the Mets finishing first in the division with an 8-game lead over the Cubs. As if to drive home the point, a black cat had walked by Cubs captain Ron Santo while he was in the on-deck circle at Shea Stadium on September 9th - the next day the Mets took over first place in the division.
The 1984 NLCS. The Cubs finished first in the NL East for the first time by 6 1/2 games. All that stood in their way was the NL West champ San Diego Padres in a best-of-5 series. The Cubs won the first two games at Wrigley, and fans could smell a return to the World Series. Then the Padres won Games 3 and 4 in San Diego. Then the deciding Game 5 - the Cubs had a 3-0 lead after two innings and still led 3-2 going into the bottom of the 7th. With a runner on second and one out, Tim Flannery of the Padres hit a grounder that went through the legs of Cubs first baseman Leon Durham, allowing San Diego to tie the game.note If this seems similar to the Buckner error mentioned for the Red Sox, note that Bill Buckner started the 1984 season with the Cubs - he was traded to the Red Sox in May. Then the next batter Tony Gwynn doubles in two more runs to give the Padres a lead which they would not relinquish.
Game 6 of the 2003 NLCSnote 95 years to the day of the Cubs' last World Series victory; also, it was the Year of the Goat in the Chinese Zodiac. The Cubs had a 3-2 series lead on the Florida Marlins and were up 3-0 with 1 out in the top of the 8th inning at Wrigley. Then a high foul ball towards the left field was hit, and a Cubs fan named Steve Bartman (among others) reached for it, knocking the ball into the stands, ruining any chance of making it the second out. The Cubs pleaded for fan interference but didn't get it. The Marlins then scored eight unanswered runs before the inning was over, winning that game as well as Game 7.
In 2015, the Cubs had one of the strongest teams in the major leagues and won a playoff series for the first time since 2003. They made it to the NLCS...where they got swept by the Mets. The series MVP was Mets infielder Daniel Murphy, prompting jokes about how he wasn't the first G.O.A.T.note Greatest Of All Time to keep the Cubs out of the World Series; a Twitter post also made the rounds on the internet pointing out that "Murphy" had been present in several of the seasons connected to the still-ongoing curse (namely, that the Cubs' owner in 1908 was Charles Murphy, the 1969 Mets had a GM named Johnny Murphy and a radio announcer named Bob Murphy, and the Padres' home field in 1984 was named Jack Murphy Stadium). Additionally, the day they lost, October 21, 2015, was also the date traveled to in Back to the Future Part II, which also said that was the day they'd win the World Series, which led many to dub this the "Back To The Future" Curse.
In 2016, the Cubs would not only finally win the Pennant by beating the Dodgers in 6 games, but at long last win a World Series in a nail-biter against the Cleveland Indians. The latter was an especially tense victory, considering the Cubs were at one point down three games to one before they rallied back to win Games 5 and 6, and then in Game 7 took a 6-3 lead into the bottom of the 8th before the Indians tied it on a Rajai Davis home run, and then the game finished the regulation nine innings tied at 6 when a rain delay set in, making it seem like their curse wasn't quite done with them (or the Indians, who at that time had the second-longest World Series championship drought and had been dogged with curse talk of their own) yet. During celebrations at Wrigley Field the following weekend, somebody brought a pet goat for people to take pictures with.

Fairy Tail: The basis of Zeref's and Mavis's death magic is the result of a curse by the god of life and death, Ankhseram. Also known as the curse of contradictions, as long as the recipient values life, everything around them dies. Discarding the value of life allows them to control the magic, however, because they place no value in life, they're probably going to kill people anyway. Other symptoms of the curse include constantly contradicting one's thoughts, causing abrupt mood swings, and Complete Immortality. What it boils down to is that the cursed is never allowed to be happy. When Zeref and Mavis fell in love with each other, Zeref found reason to live again despite already discarding the value of life, and found happiness because of the curse. This was the ultimate contradiction, and empowered his curse enough to bypass the immortality granted by her curse and kill her.

Fate/stay night introduces three types of magecraft that are deemed curses. These include Rin's Gandr, which decreases the physical health of the victim; Sakura's bounded fields, which act as the basis of her offensive and defensive magecraft; and the geis, which if willingly entered into compels the magus to obey certain conditions or restrictions.
Angra Mainyu is an existence that consists solely of curses given the physical form of black mud, pouring unendingly from the Holy Grail. Only a few individuals are strong enough to resist the curses; all others are either consumed or warped on touching the black mud.
Gae Bolg and Gae Buidhe are both cursed spears. Any wound they deliver is cursed to never heal properly so long as the spear exists.

El Goonish Shive: The Dewitchery Diamond was made specifically to remove curses that affect one's body, and works by creating a permanent clone of anyone who touches it, AND transfer the curse to it. The original will be able to reassume the cursed form at will (as well as any other forms he was forced into for the next few hours), while the clone can spread the curse to others. What constitutes a curse can vary, and the Diamond will work its effect on anyone who touches it while not in their original form. It's pointed out that this whole thing was the most ridiculous attempt to undo a curse anyone had ever heard of.

The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask:
Link is cursed to become a Deku Scrub by Skull Kid in the game's prologue.
If he touches a Blue Bubble, he is "jinxed" to be unable to draw his sword for a period of time.
Kafei gets turned into a child by Skull Kid, right before he's about to marry his fiance Anju. Link has to go through a subquest to get them back together. The end of the game never shows if he broke the curse, but he's never shown during his wedding and the point of view is much higher than that of a child. In the manga retelling, the Kafei subplot is revealed to be a Karmic Transformation brought on by Kafei picking fun of Skull Kid's age... hence Skull Kid turning him into a kid as well.

In Final Fantasy, the prince of the elves was cursed by the dark elf Astos with eternal sleep. Only an herb from the witch Matoya can wake him. Unfortunately, she's blind and needs a special eye to see...and Astos stole it from her.

Ryu the Cave Boy: When Ryu was born, he had pale, white skin. The tribe deemed it as a bad omen, and despite his mother's cries, he was ordered to be put to death. He survived, but life still hasn't been easy for him as it's still a source of marginalization throughout the series.

God Slaying Blade Works has Shirou inherit "Curses Without End" as his first Authority on slaying Angra Mainyu. With it he can generate curses of varying types, from misfortune to death, and even create monsters from curses. He also discovers that infusing a curse into a sword allows it to act as a conduit for that curse, allowing him to partially bypass an enemy's magic resistance.

Knights of Ambrose: Those who use the Vulcan Stone are cursed to become demonic beings who serve Lilith's master Zamas. Known users include the queen of Zamaste, the Monarch of Null Fortress, and Hermes. According to Malady, this is because the Vulcan Stone has such a drastic effect on fate that it punishes the user to destroy what they love to compensate.

Ladyhawke has two lovers, Etienne Navarre and Isabeau de Anjou, who are kept apart by a demonic curse laid by the corrupt and jealous Bishop of Aquila, who wanted Isabeau for himself. By day, Isabeau becomes a hawk, and by night, Etienne becomes a wolf. The only time they can both see each other in human form is at dusk and dawn of each day for one fleeting moment, but they can never touch. The two break the curse by surviving until the "day without a night and a night without a day" (a solar eclipse) and standing together before the Bishop in human form.

The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past:
Anyone who enters the Dark World is transformed into a form reminiscent of what's inside their heart. Which doesn't explain why Link turns into a bunny. The seven maidens sent into the Dark World to break the seal on it are cursed to turn into crystals. Carrying a special pearl allows Link to ward off the curse.
A tiny demon curses Link to only use half of his magic power per spell. In other words, the demon's "curse" turns out to be extremely beneficial.
In the Nintendo Power comic version, people who enter the Dark Realm change into monsters when they lose control of their emotions, and those who can't control them turn into monsters permanently. Link eventually gets his under control and it stops affecting him, but he meets an archer named Roam who eventually succumbs.

This was a plot point in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team and the comic of it. The main character believes that he's cursed to be a Pokémon because in a past life he grabbed a Ninetales' tail and let his friend Gardevoir take the curse in his place (as a legend has it). It turns out that Gengar was the human who left Gardevoir to take the heat.

Dark Angel (1996): Under Angel's guidance, Gillian puts two rather effective curses on Tanya and Kim after finding out she's a witch, to stop their intended revenge plot against her and David – she gives Kim strep throat to prevent her from talking and gives Tanya what she thinks is bad rash on her arm to stop her from writing or typing. The curses are a little too effective in fact and she's horrified when she realizes how much damage she did (if left untreated, strep throat can cause serious complications, and given the cause is supernatural it's unclear if Kim would respond to medication, while it's revealed Angel tricked Gillian into giving Tanya flesh-eating bacteria that lands her in hospital.

In Final Fantasy Tactics, the character Reis was cursed into the form of a dragon when she took on a curse intended for her lover, Beowulf. Because The Mind Is a Plaything of the Body, she also appears to have no memory of her life as a human either, though the dragon Reis still joins the party when Beowulf rescues her. He eventually changes her back when the party recovers the Cancer Zodiac Stone and she joins the party as a "Dragonkin" (Dragoner in the PS1 version) with all her dragon skills.

In the world of Codename: Kids Next Door, a smart candy hunter knows that "a good candy taken in greed will always turn sour". Which leads to quite a few instances of stupid candy hunters paying a price for being selfish:
The first appearance of Abby's rival, Heinrich von Marzipan, involved Heinrich swiping her "blurpleberry supreme" in order to loot the tomb of King Tutakhandy. After reading the part of the inscription that said, "With the crown you shall control the sarcophagus", he disregarded the rest, refusing to listen to Numbuh Five when she tried to warn him that the other half was, "but refuse to share and only taste asparagus". Naturally, he found out that part the hard way, but the curse only lasted so long as he had the crown, which Abby took from him.
He didn't get off quite as easy the next time. After trying to turn a pet rabbit into a chocolate one via a chocolate volcano, he fell into the choco-lava himself and was left for dead. However, he was actually turned into living chocolate, who could turn anything else into chocolate via touch. It was practically heaven for him, until he started craving foods other than chocolate, which he now couldn't have. The KND was able to cure him, but he didn't learn...
Operation LICORICE had two curses in one episode:
First, the candy pirate Black John Licorice discovered an island of red licorice trees, and selfishly chopped it all down and carted it away. The horrible curse he and his crew was punished with turned the licorice itself black (which is, to folks like him, inedible) and turned them into undead skeletons made of licorice, who could only function at night. Eventually, they sought a gypsy fortuneteller who gave them a magic seed that could restore the island, but they were unable to plant it before dawn. which led to the second curse...
The island was eventually found by Stickbeard and Heinrich (again) and Heinrich foolishly took the seed, causing Black John's crew to pursue him endlessly. Leading to the actual plot of the episode.
The biggest curse involving Heinrich came with Operation: CARAMEL, which explained the "Guatemala Incident" he had often referred to. As it turned out, Heinrich had once been a girl named Henrietta, meaning "Heinrich" was a curse she had been afflicted with since the aforementioned incident. In order to create pieces of ancient golden caramel, a magic ritual was performed that took away the most valued quality of a person present and turned that quality into five pieces of delicious caramel with flavor depending on the quality taken. Henrietta fell victim to the ritual's side effect, which transformed her into Heinrich, but before the curse could be reversed, she selfishly ate all of her caramels, causing her to lose the quality she valued the most. Knowing that Henrietta could not control her greed, Abigail left her behind, and Henrietta blamed her for becoming cursed. (Although as it turned out, Abigail had been keeping Henrietta's last piece, which enables the curse to finally be broken, and the two reconcile.)

During the battle against Servant Chaos in Sailor Moon Cosmos Arc, the senshi fall under a curse cast by the brainwashed Chibiusa and Endymion: they're only human at nighttime. During the day they're ghosts that no one can remember. This causes some complications, as they aren't powerful enough to Sailor Teleport to Elysian what with their power stagnated due to not using them in centuries, so they have to get to the portal to Elysian by sundown or they'll drown in the ocean.

Shantae and the Pirate's Curse:
As indicated by the title, the game revolves around one. Specifically, the Pirate Master's curse that allows him to take control of his crew and those who use his weapons, which is the reason why Risky is willing to work with Shantae.
The game also mentions that ancient curses are one of the things you must watch out for when handling relics as poor Barracuda Joe found out when he reads a mummy's curse that petrifies anyone who reads it.

In The Wide-Awake Princess, an old woman asks Annie for food — and then throws it away, contemptuously. She's cursed with toads and snakes falling from her mouth. Annie's 'curse' is that magic doesn't work around her (her sister is Sleeping Beauty, so her parents begged to make their next daughter immune to magic) therefore, all curses thrown at her get bounced back.

Dragon Quest:
Late in the games, players can start finding armor with powerful stats and malevolent designs, like of skulls and demons. However, this armor is usually cursed, and will inflict negative status effects on your character, like increased weakness to some or all kinds of attacks or even losing a turn in battle. This armor is also impossible to remove normally, usually requiring a trip to church.
Dragon Quest II: Hargon really likes his curses. He curses the entire castle of Moonbrooke after its fall, turns the princess into a dog, and as the heroes draw closer to his kingdom, he curses the Prince of Cannock to become bedridden, prompting a side quest to cure him (Remake only. Furthermore, you can beat the final boss without him, hard as it may be).
The premise of Dragon Quest VIII is that everyone in the kingdom of Trodain except the main character has been cursed by the villainous Dhoulmagus. King Trode is now a little troll-like creature, Princess Medea is a horse, and everyone else is a statue. The main character escaped the curse because a memory wiping curse that was cast on him when he was younger had the beneficial side effect of rendering him immune to other curses.
Dragon Quest IX:
The only thing the Gleeban priests know of Stellestria is the unending curses she produced until her dying day.
The Ondor Cliffs north of Gleeba are dotted with graves — these are the graves of Stellestria's enemies, and its suggested that each of the graves' epitaphs is a curse against Stellestria in turn, some of which are pretty powerful in their own right. The first one you read appears to have been scratched into the stone with claws.
In Dragon Quest Builders, set in a What If? scenario of Dragon Quest where the Dragonlord tricked the Hero into joining him and giving him "half the world", the villain cursed humanity into forgetting how to craft and build, which happened whenever they set to build something, effectively sending them back to the stone age and leaving them to struggle in the desolated land; and when confronted by the Builder, he claims that building goes against the true nature of humankind. As the Builder, you're responsible to re-enlighten humankind and (by your own choice) paying back to the Dragonlord.

Goblins:
The Dreaded, insane paladin known as Kore is said to be under a curse, though he considers it a blessing.
Forgath meets two adventurers, Idle and Bowst, who by their own admission are covered in curses from having tackled a dungeon crawl called "The Cursewalk". Idle mentions that the rabbit ears she now sports are just a minor one among those. As for Bowst, he's compelled to hit himself in the face every time he says the word "what" (thus forcing him to wear padded mittens to soften the blows), and he's also linked to a cursed sword (a very rude Talking Weapon) which he can't get far away without taking damage.

Fire Emblem: Awakening: Curses are a part of the school of Dark Magic. Technically a "curse" is anything that causes a change in the natural order and as Tharja points out, this can cut both ways. At one point she "curses" an illness spreading through the camp to be easily recovered from.

Charmed (1998): As a series about witchcraft, these pop up semi-frequently.
The most notable instance is when Phoebe begins receiving Past-Life Memories, coupled with physical manifestations of said past life attacking her. Throughout the episode, she comes to the revelation that her past self was evil, and a curse was put on her soul (by past Prue and past Piper, no less), dooming her (and all reincarnations of her soul) to die at the exact age Phoebe currently is. Through taking control of her past self's body, Phoebe herself is able to counter the curse, dodging her own demise.
Happens to Phoebe in "I Dream of Phoebe" when Phoebe, after freeing a genie she thinks is good, is forced to take the genie's place in the bottle. It turns out that the genie is actually a demon, cursed to be a genie after she refused to marry a sorcerer, and the curse works beyond the original genie, as whoever frees the current genie, whoever it may be, takes their place. This feature of the curse is used to turn the demon back into a genie again by the end.

In "East of the Sun, West of the Moon", the hero was cursed into a white bear by day by his Wicked Stepmother. When the heroine looks at him by night, that means to break it was gone; she succeeds only after a long quest.
Other tales of this type include "The Brown Bear of Norway", "The Hoodie Crow", "The Iron Stove", "The White Wolf", "The Enchanted Pig", and "The Black Bull of Norroway".

The Buffyverse has Angel, a vampire cursed with a soul. If he ever has a moment of perfect happiness (such as having sex with Buffy), the curse is broken, he loses his soul, and he reverts to being Angelus, the incredibly evil vampire that he was before getting cursed. The gypsies may not have thought this through; the soul made him deeply depressed and constantly thinking about the hundreds of people he's killed over the years, but the escape clause allows him to return to being one of history’s most sadistic killers.

The entire plot of Ella Enchanted is driven by a curse placed on Ella as a child that makes her unable to ignore orders. Usually she gets around it by finding loopholes in the orders she's given, but this becomes hazardous when Prince Charmont falls in love with her and they begin to become entangled. Ella is rightfully concerned that because of her condition, she could be ordered into hurting him (and Sir Edgar does exactly this in an attempt to off Char and grab the kingdom for himself). The curse is resolved after she sees her image in a mirror and orders herself to no longer be obedient.

The MLP Loops:
When Leah Clearwater loops into Equestria, Fluttershy identifies her werewolf "gift" as a couple of curses made by an idiot who had no idea how wolves actually worked. On top of that, the curses aren't functioning properly on Leah because she's female. Fluttershy helps her sort everything out, turning her into a more normal shapeshifter.
In one loop, the changelings are simply ponies under a curse. Chrysalis, the changeling queen, is pissed when she Awakens and discovers that her entire species has been reduced to "victims" who can be "cured." Worse, the cure is True Love... and since Awake Chrysalis is in love with Trixie, the second she Awakens every changeling is instantly cured due to her Hive Queen status. And the cherry on top is that when Chrysalis goes to complain about all this to Trixie, she discovers that Trixie isn't Awake, so she has no idea what Chrysalis is talking about.

Hexes pop all over the place in Fancy Apartments although their little more than annoying in most cases. Rather more serious however, was the death-curse that one character got hit with.

The Witcher series, based on East European folklore, is rife with curses of all kinds, ranging from simple hexes that make life difficult for people, to complex enchantments that transform people into monsters. In fact, the series begins with Geralt reversing a curse cast on the child of King Foltest, turning her into a horrific striga. Later, Geralt ends up reversing another curse on a man named Duny, who was cursed to look like a humanoid hedgehog since birth by his father's enemies, and who is in fact Emhyr var Emries, the heir to the entire Nilfgaardian Empire, and subsequently comes to rule it and setting into motion the tumultuous events in the entire series over the next couple of decades.

Vampire: The Requiem: Once upon a time, a Roman legionary stabbed the crucified son of God and was drenched by the spilled divine blood. For his treachery, he was turned into a vampire. At least that's what the Lancea et Sanctum tells everyone.
