Episode Description

Modern fairy tales often conclude with a protagonist achieving their dreams and a simple "happily ever after." 

This popular image, often promoted by studios like Disney for family-friendly consumption, only scratches the surface of these classic narratives. 

In reality, many of these beloved stories boast far darker origins, featuring unsettling themes and grim endings that would be entirely unsuitable for children's movies.

Learn about the true stories behind popular fairytales on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
