Baleful Polymorph was renamed per TRS


*** When Pinocchio and other children travel with the Coachman to the [[AmusementParkOfDoom Land of Toys]], they have to cross a dark forest filled with bats, demonic trees and [[NothingIsScarier unseen]] forces of evil that laugh maniacally at them, likely because they've seen the Coachman lure many other children to his cursed property and are all too aware of what [[BalefulPolymorph will happen]] [[BodyHorror to this latest batch of young victims]].

*** The scene where Pinocchio transforms into a donkey is also very disturbing in this version, as it's longer than many other adaptations and shown in full detail, from his ears suddenly sprouting into huge donkey ears to thick fur growing on his legs. Unlike many other versions, this one also shows Pinocchio [[TransformationTrauma completely losing control of his own body and being forced into a quadruped stance]]. The way that the poor puppet cries, sweats, grunts and winces as he begins to helplessly turn into an animal makes it very clear that the transformation is not only a terrifying experience for him but also a very ''painful'' one. And it's made clear, from the Coachman's impressive collection of riches, that he's ''far'' from the first victim. [[FridgeHorror Just try not to imagine how many other children he has tricked into this]]; children who, much like Pinocchio, only went there so they could play in what appeared to be a perfect paradise and spent a wonderful and carefree time there. And then they, much like Pinocchio, woke up to what seemed like another fun day, only to suddenly realise that [[OhCrap something felt off with their ears]]...

NightmareFuel: While the series is fairly light-hearted, it still closely follows the original book's darker story, and features some rather disturbing scenes.
** Pinocchio has a [[NightmareSequence bizarre dream]] in an episode after spending all day studying, in which he's swarmed and attacked by large numbers. The creepy music playing during it doesn't help.
** When Pinocchio and other children travel with the Coachman to the [[AmusementParkOfDoom Land of Toys]], they have to cross a dark forest filled with bats, demonic trees and [[NothingIsScarier unseen]] forces of evil that laugh maniacally at them, likely because they've seen the Coachman lure many other children to his cursed property and are all too aware of what [[BalefulPolymorph will happen]] [[BodyHorror to this latest batch of young victims]].
** The scene where Pinocchio transforms into a donkey is also very disturbing in this version, as it's longer than many other adaptations and shown in full detail, from his ears to his tail and head. The way that Pinocchio cries, sweats, grunts and winces as he loses control of his own body and begins to helplessly turn into another being makes it very clear that the transformation is not only a terrifying experience for the poor puppet and all the other children who were deceived like him, but also a very ''painful'' one.
