* Lilith in Hebrew tradition is supposed to feed on babies, as well as being a [[SuccubiAndIncubi succubus]]. It's only relatively recently (OlderThanPrint, but not OlderThanDirt) that she's been known as the first wife of Adam who wouldn't stay in the metaphorical kitchen.

* The [[ReligionOfEvil Nyar lath-Hotep cultists]] in ''Literature/TheFullerMemorandum'' by Creator/CharlesStross hold their monster summoning ritual next door to a primary school so that they can grab a bite to eat after church. Later on, after capturing Bob and performing a spell to turn him to their side (among other things), [[IfYoureSoEvilEatThisKitten they offer him some "refreshments."]]

* The Corinthian in ''ComicBook/TheSandman'' is already a repulsive PickyPeopleEater, but he seems to strongly favor the eyes of barely-pubescent boys. [[spoiler:Morpheus created him to represent the horrors of the modern world and the fears associated with them, with [[PaedoHunt one in particular]] fueling the Corinthian's hunger.

* In ''VideoGame/IcewindDale 2'', the witch Limda is a particular sadistic variant. To preserve her youth, she drains lifeforce from the children of a nearby group of fur-traders and turns them into minks as a side effect. Minks that are hunted and skinned by their own unwitting parents. She gets sick kicks from watching the traders murder and skin their own missing children.

* Would you believe ''VideoGame/AnimalCrossing'' has one? In a ''VideoGame/{{Splatoon}}''-themed event in ''[[VideoGame/AnimalCrossingPocketCamp Pocket Camp]]'', players could catch the [[FunnyOctopus squid and octopus forms]] of [[KidHero Inklings and Octolings]] and give them to Chip, who would talk about them as if they were any other [[TrademarkFavoriteFood fish]] in the game: with hunger. Granted, this is probably more due to [[WelcomeToCorneria limited dialogue]] or the fact that [[TheDitz Chip isn't supposed]] [[FatIdiot to be particularly bright]], but COME ON, Nintendo!

* ''Literature/HarryPotter'' has Fenrir Greyback, a werewolf who tries to bite as many people as possible, particularly young children, even when he's ''not'' transformed. To make the [[AdultFear child predator vibe]] even worse, he gets as close to children as he can before transforming.

Given how long some of these stories have been around, this trope is OlderThanDirt. Related to WouldHurtAChild. Also see EatsBabies.

* The Child Catcher from ''Film/ChittyChittyBangBang'' kidnapped children and imprisoned them on orders of Baroness Bomburst of Vulgaria, who cannot abide the existence of children.
* Trantor, the evil [[AllTrollsAreDifferent troll]] from the movie ''Film/ErnestScaredStupid'', went after children and turned them into little wooden dolls which gave him his power.

* ''Film/PansLabyrinth'': One task the young heroine Ofelia must complete for the Faun is to retrieve a precious dagger from the lair of The Pale Man, a grotesque humanoid monster with his [[EyesDoNotBelongThere eyes on his hands]] who sits asleep at a table where a great banquet is laid. Murals on the walls of the chamber depict him cruelly killing and devouring scores of little children, and there is a pile of shoes implied to be left over from all the children he's eaten. On the way out, Ofelia succumbs to the temptation of eating from the delicious fruit on the table, causing the pale man to wake up and try to eat her; her fairy companions die trying to protect her, and she barely escapes with her life. There's a reason his portrait is on the film's [[NightmareFuel/PansLabyrinth nightmare fuel page]]!
* [[Characters/GodzillaTheGhidorahs King Ghidorah]] in ''Film/RebirthOfMothra3''. He plans on consuming the lifeforce of the children. He ''is'' capable of consuming lifeforce of any other creatures, but specifically targets human children [[ForTheEvulz just for the heck of it]].

* Donato Porpora from ''Manga/TokyoGhoul'' is a Ghoul famous for his preference for child victims. To this end, he established himself as a SinisterMinister and opened a Catholic [[OrphanageOfLove Orpha]][[OrphanageOfFear nage]] 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 [[TheSecretOfLongPorkPies feed]] leftovers to the other children disguised as treats. Eventually, [[EvenEvilHasLovedOnes 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.

* Homelander in ''ComicBook/TheBoys'' recieves blackmail photos of himself committing all manner of horrible crimes, including eating babies alive, even though he has no memories of the events. This eventually drives him to break down completely and becoming a full-blown villain, leading the various superhumans in an attempted coup against the U.S government. [[spoiler: The photos are actually of Black Noir, in reality a clone of Homelander driven insane because he's unable to fulfill the purpose he was created for; destroying Homelander in case he became uncontrollable. Black Noir committed the crimes in hopes of giving Homelander a psychotic break so he'd be allowed to kill him]].

* Cronus/Saturn in Greek/Roman mythology. After hearing a prophecy that he will be overthrown by one of his children, he eats every one of his children [[spoiler:except Zeus/Jupiter, who was saved when Cronus/Saturn was tricked into eating a stone wrapped in swaddling clothes, under the impression that it was the real deal.]] As seen by the current image, famous artists such as Peter Paul Rubens' ''[[https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/dd/Rubens_saturn.jpg Saturn]]'' and Creator/FranciscoDeGoya's BloodierAndGorier ''[[https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/82/Francisco_de_Goya%2C_Saturno_devorando_a_su_hijo_%281819-1823%29.jpg Saturn Devouring His Son]]'' (during his black period).

* In the ''Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries'' episode "And the Children Shall Lead", the Gorgon orphans all of the children living on one planet because orphaned children are more easily influenced by parental figures... such as the "friendly angel", as the kids call the Gorgon.
* ''Series/{{Supernatural}}'':
** The episode "Something Wicked" features a Shtriga, which sucks life force from children, leaving them in comas.
** The demon Lilith likes to drink the blood of newborn babies. She even has a personal chef.
* ''Series/{{Angel}}'':
** The season 2 episode "Judgement" has a demon in Lorne's karaoke bar who is announced as Durthok the Child-Eater.
** Another child-eating species pops up in early season 5. Angel kills it but later learns he was supposed to be meeting with it.
** The fifth season episode "Smile Time" involves demonic puppets that are sucking brain power from the children that watch their TV show.

* In ''Series/TorchwoodChildrenOfEarth'', an alien being called the 456 comes to Earth and demands 10% of the child population of the planet. It doesn't want the children to eat them, it wants them because the children release chemicals which to it are like a drug. It's essentially getting high off of kids. Very, very squicky.
* In the first episode/movie of ''{{Series/Lexx}}'', the Cluster Lizards prove to be this. However, the kids they're eating happen to be the cream of the crop chosen by His Divine Shadow, so arguably this isn't such a bad thing in this case.

* ''Series/DoctorWho:'' The Krillitanes, from "School Reunion", masquerade as teachers in a school, and are implied to eat students who don't measure up. Their boss begins the episode by explicitly eating a girl just for having a headache (and because she was an orphan).
-->''You have no parents? No-one to miss you? Poor child. Poor... ''thin'' child. Why don't you come inside [my office]? It's almost time for lunch...''
* In the ''Series/{{Grimm}}'' episode "El Cuegle", the eponymous Wesen hunts down and kidnaps babies, intending to eat them at a specific ritual time. [[spoiler: It turns out El Cuegle get horrible visions of the future, and know these babies will grow up to be killers. The one in the episode hates what he does, but hates what happens if he doesn't even more]].
* ''Series/ScratchNSniffsDenOfDoom:'' the titular Hyena hosts of this quiz show, which revolves around this trope, are said to round up and capture their contestants to play their "Deadly Game". The losers of this game are swiftly dropped into the hosts' cooking pot to be eaten for their dinner. This is implied to happen after every episode as each game has a guarantee of four losers and only one potential winner/fifth loser.

* ''ComicStrip/TheFarSide'':
** One comic depicts two parents telling a stereotypical-looking WickedWitch, "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."

* The Dark Dragon God, Loputousu, and its current host in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemGenealogyOfTheHolyWar'' demand [[HumanSacrifice sacrifices of children ages 7 to 13]]. '''Large''' sacrifices. The midquel, ''VideoGame/FireEmblemThracia776'', reveals that Loputousu and his cult are not "sacrificing" the children per se; rather, they are forcing them to fight to the death, with the winners being rewarded with positions of nobility in the Lopt Empire. That said, the vast majority of the children are killed in these battles.
* Kusaregedo from ''VideoGame/SamuraiShodown'' is a rather monstrous version of this.
* In ''VideoGame/IcewindDale 2'', the witch Limda is a particular sadistic variant. To preserve her youth, she drains lifeforce from the children of a nearby group of fur-traders and turns them into minks as a side effect. Minks that are hunted and skinned by their own unwitting parents. She gets sick kicks from watching the traders murder and skin their own missing children.
* Arioch from ''VideoGame/{{Drakengard}}'' is a psychotic SerialKiller who eats children, and only children. While she'll ''kill'' adults, children are the only ones she cannibalizes due to psychosis from having lost her family to TheEmpire and rendered infertile by a DealWithTheDevil.
** [[spoiler:The game also provides a sick inversion where gigantic children eat the main characters. More specifically [[DeathByIrony the aforementioned Arioch]].]]

* In ''VideoGame/ShinMegamiTenseiStrangeJourney'', one of the demons you may meet around is the above mentioned Hindu goddess Hariti - who, unfortunately, [[Myth/HinduMythology was once a vicious ogress]] with a serious case of these [[{{Lunacy}} which the full moon threatens to bring back]]. Luckily, her friend [[Myth/GreekMythology Persephone]] is more than willing [[ShownTheirWork to give her a pomegranate]], just so she won't be tempted to restart the habit.

* Captain Mako, the shark mutant of ''VideoGame/CityOfHeroes'' has this on his record as if first big act of villainy. He killed off his orphanage because the other kids were taunting him for being a Mutant. Though actually we are never specifically told he ate the other kids, but considering his preferred method of murder in his adulthood and how he [[ImAHumanitarian disposes of the bodies]], it is pretty heavily implied.
* ''[[Creator/ChoiceOfGames Choice of the Vampire]]'': Children are one option for the vampire PlayerCharacter's TrademarkFavoriteFood, but come with a hefty hit to the KarmaMeter and the unambiguous disgust of [[EvenEvilHasStandards every other vampire]] you mention it to.
-->'''Player Character:''' Their innocence is intoxicating.

** This is also encountered through other forms in the game, usually by various monsters in the game, namely the [[spoiler:Grave Hag from the Merry Widow contract in Lindenvale]]
* Would you believe ''VideoGame/AnimalCrossing'' has one? In a ''VideoGame/{{Splatoon}}''-themed event in ''[[VideoGame/AnimalCrossingPocketCamp Pocket Camp]]'', players could catch the [[FunnyOctopus squid and octopus forms]] of [[KidHero Inklings and Octolings]] and give them to Chip, who would talk about them as if they were any other [[TrademarkFavoriteFood fish]] in the game: with hunger. Granted, this is probably more due to [[WelcomeToCorneria limited dialogue]] or the fact that [[TheDitz Chip isn't supposed]] [[FatIdiot to be particularly bright]], but COME ON, Nintendo!

* ''Webcomic/NoRestForTheWicked'': Saying anything would spoil the fuel.

* Harvestman of ''Webcomic/DaddyLongLegs'' is, amazingly, a ''heroic'' example. (Partly justified since neither he nor the children in question are [[CarnivoreConfusion human]].)
* Quixoto ended up as Charby of ''Webcomic/CharbyTheVampirate'''s sire due to his preference for eating children when he left his meal unfinished and Charby turned into a vampire before he came back to clean up.

%%* This is part of ''Blog/TheComicsCurmudgeon's'' interpretation of ''{{ComicStrip/Marmaduke}}'' as a {{Hellhound}}.

* In ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'', Cardiac only targeted children, because, according to WordOfGod, he was supposed to be more of an [[{{Animesque}} anime-style]] villain.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'':
** In the "Nightmare Cafeteria" part of WesternAnimation/TreehouseOfHorror V, Springfield Elementary is suffering from both overcrowding in detention and food budget cuts. 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, [[JustSoStory starting the tradition of Trick-or-Treating]]. [[BlackComedy Then they mention having already eaten several children before they reached the Flanders house.]]

* One ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' parody of ''Literature/HanselAndGretel'' casts Witch Hazel as the witch; when WesternAnimation/BugsBunny calls her out on her plan to eat the two siblings, she mumbles, "Call it a weakness..."

* ''WesternAnimation/AlfredJKwak'': [[CatsAreMean Krabnagel the cat]] tries to eat both Alfred and Dolf when they are little.

* The Orb of Bask from ''Manga/YuYuHakusho'' took the souls of children, which the wielder could use as food. Goki demonstrates this as Yusuke approaches him, although Yusuke defeats him before the children's souls could digest, allowing them to float back to their bodies upon being freed.
* The demon Astarte from ''Manga/AngelSanctuary'' is infertile and wishes she could have children. As a way of coping, she swallows young girls who get lost in [[DemonLordsAndArchdevils her brother]]'s maze so that she can indulge in the fantasy of being pregnant.

* One really squicky villain in ''ComicBook/{{Hellblazer}}'', who was the demonic embodiment of rape trapped in the body of a dead child, sustained itself by ''drinking babies''. While investigating the monster's house, Constantine accidentally discovered what was left of them when he opened a closet and a pile of dozens of dead bloodless babies collapsed on him.

* A taste he shares with Tojiro XIV, the Asian vampire from ''ComicBook/{{Grendel}}''.
* In ''ComicBook/CountdownToFinalCrisis'', ComicBook/MaryMarvel, after her FaceHeelTurn, briefly encounters a demon who claims to be the harvester of souls of stillborn children. After introducing himself as such [[IAmAHumanitarian he threatens to disembowel her and eat the digested food from her intestines.]] In other words, [[WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall he's the dead baby monster that eats poop.]]
* In the French comic ''ComicBook/{{Raptors}}'', the ancient leader of the new vampire order, Don Miguel Y Certa, who is also known as "The Devourer", has a particular fondness for children.
* ''ComicBook/AllStarComics'': Gallifron is a giant Ogre who hunts and eats children. The ComicBook/{{JSA}} fight him to free an entire sack full of children he's just collected as snacks.
* Homelander in ''ComicBook/TheBoys'' recieves blackmail photos of himself committing all manner of horrible crimes, including eating babies alive, even though he has no memories of the events. This eventually drives him to break down completely and becoming a full-blown villain, leading the various superhumans in an attempted coup against the U.S goverment.

* ''Film/CatsEye'' By Creator/StephenKing: The [[AllTrollsAreDifferent Little Troll Monster]] sits on the little girl's chest and steals her breath.
* ''Film/PansLabyrinth'': One task the young heroine Ofelia must complete for the Faun is to retrieve a precious dagger from the lair of The Pale Man, a grotesque humanoid monster with his [[EyesDoNotBelongThere eyes on his hands]] who sits asleep at a table where a great banquet is laid. Murals on the walls of the chamber depict him cruelly killing and devouring scores of little children, and there is a pile of shoes implied to be left over from all the children he's eaten. On the way out, Ofelia succumbs to the temptation of eating from the delicious fruit on the table, causing the pale man to wake up and try to eat her; her fairy companions die trying to protect her, and she barely escapes with her life. There's a reason his portrait is on the film's [[NightmareFuel/PansLabyrinth nightmare fuel page]]!

* After his plan to become mayor of Gotham City is foiled by the Batman, The Penguin of ''Film/BatmanReturns'' goes after Gotham's first-born sons, planning to drown them in the sewer. He kills the one clown (Doug Jones again) who objects to the plan ("Killing sleeping children? Isn't that a little..." *BLAM!* "No! It's a LOT!"), but Batman stops the plan before it can get too far.
* FatBastard of ''Film/AustinPowers'' fame. Mini-Me's small size makes Fat Bastard hungry because it reminds him of the time he ate a baby.
-->''"Behbies!! It's tha OTHA otha White Meat!!"
* In ''Film/WesCravensNewNightmare'', Freddy Krueger tries to eat Heather's son Dylan alive before she stops him.

* Creator/RoaldDahl:
** The eponymous monsters in ''Literature/TheWitches'' want to kill children because they can't stand the smell of them -- a child, particularly a freshly-bathed one, smells like dog's droppings to a witch. They eventually decide to turn them all into mice, because the parents would then poison, trap or otherwise dispatch the newly arrived rodent infestation, not realizing it was their children. The witches get sick satisfaction from tricking the parents into offing their own kids.
** In ''Literature/TheBFG'', the evil giants tend to eat people regardless of age, but seem to prefer kids, because "Little chiddlers is not so tough to eat as old grandmamma, so says the Childchewing Giant".
** The VillainProtagonist of ''The Enormous Crocodile'' sets out to eat as many school children as he can find, but he never really succeeds as the other jungle animals keep thwarting his plans.
* The opening Little Bad of the [[Literature/GravePeril third book]] from ''Literature/TheDresdenFiles'' was a ghost who was stuck in the same pattern of actions: trying to make her baby be quiet by singing and covering his mouth, so that her husband wouldn't lose his temper. She was haunting a hospital nursery and suffocating children.

* In ''Literature/TheLordOfTheRings'', Gandalf mentions that during the hunt for Gollum, he heard tales of 'a blood-drinking creature' that crawled through open windows to empty cradles... yes, Gollum eats babies.
* In the book ''Demon Keeper'', a demon known as [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast the Beast]] ate ''lost'' children. However, they didn't have to still be children by the time he ate them - a teenage runaway grown-up was still a prime meal.

* Jenny Green-Teeth in ''[[Literature/{{Discworld}} The Wee Free Men]]''. And the headless horseman. And dromes. And [[TheFairFolk elves]].

* The [[ReligionOfEvil Nyar lath-Hotep cultists]] in ''Literature/TheFullerMemorandum'' by Creator/CharlesStross hold their monster summoning ritual next door to a primary school so that they can grab a bite to eat after church. Later on, after capturing Bob and performing a spell to turn him to their side (among other things), [[IfYoureSoEvilEatThisKitten they offer him some "refreshments."]]

* The alien overlords in Creator/SPSomtow's ''Literature/{{Mallworld}}'' series not only eat their own children, they've been known to serve them up as the main course at diplomatic dinners. Their children are non-sentient and considered vermin until they reach a certain age.
* The alien Tendu of ''Literature/TheColorOfDistance'' and ''Through Alien Eyes'', have several life stages, and as with the above example, early ones aren't very intelligent. 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 around until they can wander into more distant 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.
* The Night Parade are a race of creatures from another dimension first appearing in the ''TabletopGames/ForgottenRealms'' novel of the same name. Their MO is to kidnap children and turn them into creatures like themselves; exactly why is not known, but most inhabitants believe it is because they are a DyingRace trying to increase their population.

* The demon Astarte from ''Manga/{{Angel Sanctuary}}'' is infertile and wishes she could have children. As a way of coping, she swallows young girls who get lost in [[DemonLordsandArchdevils her brother]]'s maze so that she can indulge in the fantasy of being pregnant.

* Alice from ''VideoGame/{{BalloonKid}}'' is a little girl, even being depicted as a small baby in the Japanese art. If she flies too close to the water, a fish will leap out and grab her, bring her into the water, and eat her alive.

* Long Arms from ''VideoGame/FatalFrame''. In life, he was the father of a previous VirginSacrifice and tried to save his daughter. His disfigured spirit haunts the mansion, snatching away any children he encounters and killing them.
