American standards for children's books, especially in more recent times, are very different from a lot of other places. We're steadily taking out creepy/scary/macabre things so that children have safe, clean books, shows, and movies. I'm not judging it one way or another, I'm just telling my experience-- I'm a teacher of small children and I clearly see it happening. When I was a child I didn't like creepy or gross things at all so it wouldn't really bother me personally.

Case in point: in the new edition of the classic anthology Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark, they replaced the brilliant, awesomely nightmarish illustrations by Stephen Gammel with some tame, pretty ones that wouldn't scare anybody.
