I was reading in the New Yorker about a stage version of Coraline and it mentioned this stuff, about her going into the other world and how she's really just going into her imagination and I think its like that for most hero-into-other-world deals (pan's labrinth, narnia) but what do we use from it now that we've switch that story type around.
