Bed time visitors

you remember pied piper of hamelin? My grandfather introduced me to him. just as he did, Rumpelstilitskin and oddly Rasputin too.
but pied piper was just a story of broken dreams, false promises, and disaster.
depending on the version two children were left behind, one deaf and one lame.
The deaf followed outa curiosity and the lame one couldnt catch up, and the town had just these two children left.
why was i told pied piper as a bed time story?
what happened to cheerful bed time stories.
maybe i can contribute this to my list of childhood trauma!
