we’re getting dark today 😈 strangely enough though … the dark theme is actually disney based?! 😳
#tdil the original story of snow white and the seven dwarves had a pretty grim end 😅
it’s funny isn’t it – a lot of old nursery rhymes or stories made for children are often actually based on some pretty grim things 🙈 … a few that i’ve heard today would actually make some good horror films 😂
in the case of snow white, however, it’s just the ending that was dramatically changed by Disney to make it more kid friendly 👍🏻
as we all know (or should … like, there’s no excuse to not know how snow white goes 💁🏻♂️), the disney story of snow white sees her poisoned by an apple 🍎 but then rescued when her prince kisses her … of course she then goes off and lives happily ever after 👸🏼👍🏻
that’s not how it went in the original german novel that was written by ‘the brothers grimm’ in 1812.
in their novel, snow white is still poisoned by an apple … but instead of a kiss saving her, it’s actually the prince dropping her casket that dislodges the apple from her throat, subsequently waking her from her slumber 👍🏻
after that, things get grim 😅 snow white and her prince invite all the kings and queens to their wedding, including the evil queen 😈 without knowing that it is snow white’s wedding, the evil queen accepts the invitation 😏
when she arrives, however, she is forced to wear iron slippers that have been super heated over coals 😳 these shoes obvs burn her feet quite considerably … even so, she’s forced to dance in them until she dies ☠️ #lovely
how charming is that? 🙈😂 i hear that there are similar stories when it comes to rapunzel and pinocchio … maybe we’ll do those in the future 🤔
let me know what you think 😉
bye! 😊 #tdil
