Talk:Sugarplum Fairy/@comment-173.75.248.215-20141221040317

My assumption is that the name "Sugarplum Fairy" is applied because of the teeth. It's a reference to The Nutcracker, yes, but more than that it may be a reference to actual "nutcrackers," which possess freakishly large teeth and mouths (they freaked me out when I was a kid). So a kind of "horror two-for-one," without a direct previous horror analogue.
