About this deal

Invoked in another episode, "Fear Itself", where Buffy goes to a Halloween party dressed as Little Red Riding Hood (with a basket full of weaponry). She's feeling emotionally vulnerable at the time, and ends up facing a demon that makes you face your worst fears, leaving her trapped in a basement, being dragged down into the ground by zombies. Of course, she gets over her fear and saves the day, because she's the Goddamn Slayer! In the opening of "Earshot" when Buffy is pretending to be a Victim of the Week to lure out a demon, she's wearing a red hoodie. The RPG Maker game The Dark Side of Red Riding Hood by Charon. When staying on the path, nothing will happen, but if Little Red Riding Hood strays from the path, then she will be eaten by her cannibalistic grandmother, be raped by the hunter/wolf or be sold by her mother as a slave. The two endings that are at least somewhat harmless are the one where Red kills her grandma with an axe because her mother asked her to and the one where she gets lost and starves in the woods. It is also implied that there are several Little Red Riding Hoods, since both the slave owner and grandma mention how she isn't the first and certainly not the last that they will get their hands on. Don't Look Now. A little blond girl in a hooded red coat. She drowns. And the ghost of her is seen as such... turns out to be a dwarf murderer in a coat, thus actually inverting the trope. In Quite Contrary Mary wanders into the fairy tale while wearing a Sexy-Little-Red-Riding-Hood Halloween costume, and is pursued by the wolf. The sexuality aspect of this trope is played up for maximum creepiness, since Mary is twelve years old and the wolf wants to both sleep with her and eat her.

Also adapted to Ilang: The Wolf Brigade. Except that the girl playing the red riding hood character was able to get away from the SU. Lampshaded constantly in Jin-Roh: The Wolf Brigade, which quotes from the original Little Red Riding Hood tale. The protagonist Fuse hesitates at shooting a young girl in a red hood who's carrying a terrorist bomb. After she blows herself up, he finds himself drawn to her sister, also wearing red who is actually a terrorist-turned-police-informant. And as in the original fairy tale, the girl in the red hoodie is killed by the 'wolf' at the end. Red-haired Amy Pond also owns a red hoodie, including in "The Pandorica Opens", when she is fatally shot by Rory. She also wears it earlier in the episode "Flesh and Stone", which completes the symbolism by having her walk alone through a forest avoiding monsters.Claire wears a red hoodie in the present day. One of her younger selves also wears a red shirt, while the very youngest version of Claire we see has a pure white nightgown on instead. Waist Find your waist, which lies between the bottom of your ribs and the top of your hips. Place the measuring tape around your waist, usually just above the belly button. Exhale naturally, and then take the measurement. Ensure the tape is firm against your waist without digging into your skin. Blonde companion Rose Tyler wears a red hoodie in at least one episode prior to her switch to Action Girl. Perhaps intentional — she is the Bad Wolf... A Walk Among the Tombstones. The two Serial Killers decide to give up on their next intended victim after finding out she's in a bedridden coma (they like their victims conscious and terrified) whereupon the woman's 14-year old daughter steps out of the house, the wind blowing the hood of her red coat off her face. Bridge to Terabithia: Leslie Burke wears a variety of outfits throughout the movie, but the very last scene where she's seen alive, she's wearing a red raincoat.

Attention, Parents: For God's sake, do not dress your tiny daughters in red. Particularly not red coats. Particularly if the daughters are blondes. Awful, awful things will happen. King's Quest II subverts this as Little Red Riding Hood makes it through the game completely unscathed. Possum, her counterpart in the Fan Remake, becomes a vampire. Surprisingly, this is portrayed as a positive outcome. A Gender Flip from Teen Wolf: Scott is wearing a faded red hoodie the night he's bitten by a werewolf.

Wicked Women's

Ironically, though, only one actual female Red Shirt was ever killed in the Original Series. All other female crew members who died over the course of the show were either Gold or Blue shirts. Although she's not wearing a hoodie, also worthy of mention is "Amends", when Angel encounters Buffy in her bedroom wearing a blood-red dress, looking particularly vulnerable and sensual, and struggles with the urge to force himself on her. Lampshaded in the Darkest Powers series, when Chloe is wearing a red windbreaker while out scouting the woods. She is found by an Ax-Crazy ghost whom she (and her werewolf friend) pissed off earlier. He taunts her, "That's a pretty red coat you're wearing. Little Red Riding Hood, all alone in the woods at night. Where's your big bad wolf?" Then he tries to stone her to death. Midsomer Murders: In "The Ghost of Causton Abbey", Barnaby is reading Little Red Riding Hood to his daughter. As he reads, the scene cuts to a female suspect wearing a long red scarf/cape being stalked by the murderer through the overgrown gardens of the abbey at night. Barnaby's narration of the story continues over the top of the action as the woman is killed. Red is, of course, the color of blood, and as such it carries ancient associations with sexuality (as in Lady in Red) and danger (as in Red Shirt). It is also simply a very strong, eye-catching color. Anyone wearing head-to-toe red is marked out, highly visible and memorable — not only to the audience but also to anyone who may wish to harm her. When that person is a little girl, she is bound to seem especially exposed and vulnerable.
