Mortality and the afterlife are also common themes. Dark fantasies often explore what happens after death or the price of trying to cheat death. Like in 'The Sandman' by Neil Gaiman, the concept of dreams and death are intertwined. Also, the theme of the outcast or the misunderstood hero is prevalent. Characters like Dracula in Bram Stoker's classic are outcasts, different from normal society and feared because of their powers or nature.
Some good ones include 'The Dark Tower' series by Stephen King. It's a blend of western and dark fantasy elements. The Gunslinger's journey through a desolate and often terrifying landscape is full of dark and strange encounters. 'Alice in Wonderland' can also be seen as a dark fantasy. The original story has a lot of elements that are quite dark and surreal, with Alice facing all sorts of strange and often menacing creatures in her journey through Wonderland.
One of the most prominent is Neil Gaiman. His stories are filled with a sense of mystery and the macabre. For example, in 'The Graveyard Book', he tells the story of a boy raised in a graveyard, which has a lot of dark elements. Another author is China Mieville. His works, like 'Perdido Street Station', are set in strange and often very dark and complex worlds. There are also many dark and fantastical elements in his other books. And then there's Angela Carter. Her re - tellings of fairy tales in books like 'The Bloody Chamber' add a very dark and feminist twist to the traditional tales.
Well, 'Carrie' by Stephen King is a good example of a dark fantasies story. It tells the story of a girl with telekinetic powers who is bullied at school and then takes a dark and vengeful path. And then there's 'Pan's Labyrinth' which is set in a dark and fantastical world during the Spanish Civil War, where a young girl encounters all sorts of strange and often menacing creatures in her journey through a magical and yet very dark underworld.
An example of a novel that did not fantasize about a stallion was as follows:
"Battle Through the Heavens" was a well-known story on Qidian. It described the rise of the main character, Xiao Yan, during his training. The plot of the novel is full of ups and downs, and the characters are full of literary value.

The 'dark side' adds mystery. For example, in a vampire - human romance in a novel, the vampire's nocturnal nature, their need for blood, and their long - lived existence are all mysterious. This mystery makes the human character, and the reader, more intrigued by the relationship. It also adds danger. The idea that the love interest could be a threat, either physically or to the character's normal life, heightens the passion.
