这个六月，关注度最高的网剧一定是《隐秘的角落》（The Bad Kids）。

演技好、剧情佳、卡司强、细节绝是其拿下今年国产剧豆瓣最高分的主要原因，就连原著作者紫金陈都发短评赞美，“非常好，我挑不出缺点的好。既商业又情怀。”

据说看完全剧后，许多网友都得了“《小白船》PTSD”（post-traumatic stress disorder，创伤后应激障碍）。本来耳熟能详的童年回忆《小白船》成了令人毛骨悚然的音（阴）乐。

“恐怖”和“童谣”这两个看起来风马牛不相及的词，组合在一起立即产生一种诡异的暗黑感。双语君（微信ID: Chinadaily_Mobile）为大家盘点几首经典的黑暗童谣（提示：胆小者谨慎浏览）。

《小白船》Little White Boat

《小白船》本是一首朝鲜童谣，创作于1924年，原名《半月》。作词作曲者为尹克荣，当时，他目睹姐姐因丈夫去世而悲痛异常，常在白天孤寂地望向天空出现的半月。因此，这首童谣免不了让人心生悲凉苦痛之感。

小时候没注意结尾这句“飘呀飘呀，飘向西天”，其实这就是一首安魂曲。

蓝蓝的天空银河里In the blue sky in the milky way有只小白船There is a little white boat船上有棵桂花树On the boat there is an osmanthus tree白兔在游玩And a white rabbit playing桨儿桨儿看不见No oars to be seen船上也没帆Nor a sail on the boat飘呀飘呀The boat drifts along飘向西天Into the western sky

《十个黑人小男孩》Ten Little Nigger Boy

推理女王阿加莎·克里斯蒂（Agatha Christie）的经典推理小说《无人生还》（And Then There Were None），被认为是历史上成就最高的推理小说之一。

阿婆将恐怖童谣的作用发挥得淋漓尽致，整本书的情节都一直围绕着一首童谣。被困在海岛上的8个人，加上管家夫妇，10个人分别对应了一句童谣，接连死亡，无人生还。

童谣原名是《十个小黑人》（Ten Little Niggers），后因有种族歧视之嫌，题目被改为《十个印第安小男孩》（Ten Little Indian Boys）。这首童谣再版的时候，最后一个小人上吊自杀的结局，也改成了结婚生子。

Ten little nigger boys went out to dine;One choked his little self, and then there were nine.十个小黑人，为了吃饭去奔走；噎死一个没法救，十个只剩九。Nine little nigger boys sat up very late;One overslept himself, and then there were eight.九个小黑人，深夜不寐真困乏；倒头一睡睡死啦，九个只剩八。Eight little nigger boys traveling in Devon;One said he'd stay there, and then there were seven.八个小黑人，德文城里去猎奇；丢下一个命归西，八个只剩七。Seven little nigger boys chopping up sticks;One chopped himself in half, and then there were six.七个小黑人，伐树砍枝不顺手；斧劈两半一命休，七个只剩六。Six little nigger boys playing with a hive;A bumble-bee stung one, and then there were five.六个小黑人，玩弄蜂房惹蜂怒；飞来一蜇命呜呼，六个只剩五。Five little nigger boys going in for law;One got in chancery, and then there were four.五个小黑人，惹事生非打官司；官司缠身直到死，五个只剩四。Four little nigger boys going out to sea;A red herring swallowed one, and then there were three.四个小黑人，结伙出海遭大难；鱼吞一个血斑斑，四个只剩三。Three little nigger boys walking in the zoo;A big bear hugged one, and then there were two.三个小黑人，动物园里遭祸殃；狗熊突然从天降，三个只剩两。Two little nigger boys sitting in the sun;One got frizzled up, and then there was one.两个小黑人，太阳底下长叹息；晒死烤死悲戚戚，两个只剩一。One little nigger boys living all alone;He went out and hanged himself, and then there were none.一个小黑人，归去来兮只一人；悬梁自尽了此生，一个也不剩。

《伦敦大桥垮下来》London Bridge is Falling Down

脍炙人口的《伦敦大桥垮下来》听起来旋律欢快，但关于这首童谣的歌词，也有各种解读，其中有一种说法颇为骇人。

这种说法认为，这首童谣记录了一种极其残忍的建筑献祭仪式：当建筑初落成时，如果将活着的孩子密封入建筑中，那么他的灵魂将永远守护着建筑物不倒。而童谣中的My fair lady是指高姆女士（Alice Bertha Gomme），因为她认同这一说法。

London Bridge is falling down,伦敦大桥垮掉了，Falling down falling down,垮掉了，垮掉了，London Bridge is falling down,伦敦大桥垮掉了，垮掉了，My fair lady.我美丽的淑女。Take a key and lock her up,带着钥匙把她锁起来，lock her up, lock her up,把她锁起来，锁起来，Take a key and lock her up,带着钥匙把她锁起来，My fair lady.我美丽的淑女。My fair lady.我美丽的淑女。
