Oates unexpectedly adds allusions to fairy tales throughout the story that suggest a much deeper meaning than the initial realistic interpretation. The use of fairy tales adds a vitally important element to the story that evil can be lurking in unexpected places. The author uses allusions specific to the fairy tales “Little Red Riding Hood,” “The Three Little Pigs,” and “Cinderella”. The story references the wolf in “Little Red Riding Hood”: “...the jaw and chin and cheeks slightly darkened, because he hadn 't shaved for a day or two, and the nose long and hawk-like, sniffing as if she were a treat he was going to gobble up...”

One of the boys, Piggy, is constantly bullied and considered a nuisance by the power-hungry boys on the island.

The Lord Of The Flies by William Golding is a book about a plane full of boys crashing on an island.

Within Ray Bradbury’s short story, “The Veldt”, the difficult character, Peter Hadley is disrespectful, intelligent and ruthless.

Peter would always, “look at his shoes. He never looked at his father anymore”(Bradbury 6).
Before this, Piggy was struggling to find his usefulness because his asthma prevented him from helping with manual labor. Throughout the novel, Piggy is ignored by the other boys except when they need his incendiary tool. Piggy’s role on the island is also reasoning and being the adult, which means he ruins all the fun making him an outsider. “Finally, Piggy's role—as man's reasoning faculties and as a father—derives some of its complexity from the fact that the fire which the children foster and guard on the mountain in the hope of communicating with the adult world is lighted with his glasses” (Mannori). Piggy is the ‘adult’ that brings the children fire.
Pan’s Labyrinth (2006), directed by Guillermo del Toro, is a gorgeously realised tale of fantasy and horror, set against the backdrop of post-Civil War Spain. The story follows a young girl, Ofelia, who travels to the countryside with her ill mother to live with her new stepfather, Vidal, a captain in Franco’s Fascist army. The film explores how Ofelia uses her imagination as a copying mechanism to deal with the monstrosities of her reality as well as to interpret the horrific events unfolding around her. Del Toro employs a number of cinematic devices including cinematography, sound and editing to effectively draw parallels between Ofelia’s reality and imagination, ultimately creating a powerful film that condemns the nature of Fascism.
