* The ending of "The Secret". A young orphan protagonist is adopted by an affluent couple who really don't pay him much attention. He befriends their servant who is tragically killed by the couple when they reveal themselves to be vampires, who plan to eat the boy once he's properly fattened up. At the end though, the child's "secret" is that he is a werewolf and, as [[{{Narm}} Narmy]] as the revelation is, it's just so pleasant to watch him take both the vampires out.
