Ahem... The film is rated...
You'd know that if you read the post! Funnily enough, it also links out to an neat article discussing a study showing parents aren't reading scary stories to their kids... And why that's bad. Here it is just in case ya need it! Heck, on other bits of social media, I heard about schools showing kids the movie in 5th to 6th grade, in the US even!
Woah there! German fairy tales were meant for children! That's explicitly their target audience.
The whole point was to scare the children into behaving a certain way. Like, "don't go wandering off alone. Bad things can happen!"
If you just tell your kid that they won't listen. However, if you tell them a story about how kids that wandered off alone into a forest got cooked and eaten by a witch then maybe they'll stick to the village (and be wary of strangers).
