** [[FairFolk The Unseelie]] weren't nice to begin with but they become more of a threat when they fall under a charismatic dictator and start becoming like the Nazis, complete with and IndustrializedEvil, super-weapon projects, and go from viewing humanity as playthings to 'ironmongering filth' that must be destroyed.

* '''Intended Audience Reaction''': Well, the audience will always feel good about watching Nazis getting curb-stomped ForJustice, and Satanist Nazis? Yup, definitely will feel more good about them getting wiped out.

** While blundering around with their [[InsaneTrollLogic self-aggrandizing ideology-before-evidence]] nonsense approach, the Nazis accidentally discover an occult power, obscure or long-buried, that is more than willing [[UnwittingPawn to exploit them for their own ends]].
** After the Nazis are spurned [[EveryoneHasStandards by most of the existing supernatural forces]] in this way, and are staring down certain defeat, they summon a world-ending EldritchAbomination [[SoreLoser purely out of spite]].
