Yup. One great source for me was Raymond Feists Faerie Tale. The fay in that 
book were not nice, even the ones who were supposed to be "nice" were not 
that good.
Fantastic creatures should have their own agenda, and who knows how that 
fits with the human world? What you see as evil, they might see as a 
nessicity. And European mythos has way to many fantastic creatures to have 
to rely upon D&D critters.
