It doesn't seem to happen terribly often in these films.  It's too "shocking" for a kid to die in these movies.  :lookingup:
But what are some examples you can think of?
And describe the scene if you can.
How about:
ALLIGATOR (1980)
During a Halloween party, a costumed kid is forced to "walk the plank" by his pirate-garbed buddies.  The titular gator is in the pool and plank walker gets et!
Alligator Eats A Kid In The Pool! From the 1980 Horror Classic "Alligator".
Not that I have a weirdo kink for this kind of thing, but it just doesn't happen much in these films.
What examples can you come up with?

THE BLOB (1988) remake has the heroine, her younger brother, and his pal Eddie (DOUG EMERSON) in the sewer attacked by the Blob.  About 12, Eddie is engulfed and pulled under the water...

One of the great misconceptions in movies is that kids don't get killed in horror films, as here are about 20 films that disproves that misconception.

And while teens (still little Kids to me, being as old as I am) die more often than infants and pre-teens, the latter also die.

Descent
Frankenstein (1931)
The Innocents (1961)
It's Alive
and its sequels
Primeval
Sleepy Hollow

If girls are more vulnerable to sexual violence than boys, then boys are more vulnerable to physical violence and death than girls, in such films as . . . where about 74% of the children killed are boys and about 26% are girls.

Vampire Circus
Twenty Eight Days Later
Tales from the Crypt: Demon Knight
Omen II
My Boyfriend's Back
Lair of the White Worm
Hocus Pocus
Fright Night
actually, both the original and the remake
Cry of the Banshee
Cemetery Man
Captain Kronos, Vampire Hunter
Brotherhood of the Wolf

And I will expand on my reply sometime later, when I finish with the two topics I am working on now.

Not an horror film but Trainspotting has a memorable child death which leads to a drug-induced nightmare sequence...

God Bless America -- dream sequence in which a baby is shotgunned into a shower of blood.

Bloodletting -- baby in a playpen becomes buckshot splatter

Those are two of the more off-beat ones I know.
