Green Eggs and Flesh
(Green Eggs and Ham) - Side note, if Seuss ever wrote a horror children's book, it would be ridiculous. Kids would be institutionalized for how psychologically traumatizing the text would be.

Kaptari: That book made me literally ROTFL
Caroline: I'm sure there was a dark side to Seuss and I believe somebody told me this once but I might have to check out that text.

And yeah...
âThe Fright Night remake is a film which taps into the audienceâs deepest rooted fears, such as those of vampires throwing motorcycles at them. I dread the thought of a vampire throwing a refrigerator or a deskjet printer or... Iâd better stop before I give myself nightmaresâ

In A People House
....
Yeah. I didn't have to change that title at all. It's gross enough.
Seuss-isms:
"I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells."
"We are all a little weird and life's a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love."
"Being crazy isn't enough."
...Maybe not. But it sure is a good start...

Dr. Seuss was born in Weirdsville. It's a shame I wasn't.
