Snowdrop (Snow White) - A Grimms' Fairytale

Tonight let's dive into the Grimm, creepy story of Snow White's past! Evil Queens, dastardly schemes, one heck of a creepy Prince and so much more await us in this evening's Brothers Grimms' Fairytale "Snow White" aka "Snowdrop!" "Mirror, Mirror, on the wall - who is the fairest one of all?" "The one with lips red as blood, hair black as ebony, and skin pale white as snow." Ah yes, the beloved creepy classic, "Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs!" You know it's creepy, and you know it's going to be a joy to read together! Join me for tonight's fairy tale of old - poisoned apples, poisoned combs, tight laces, jealousy, vanity, red-hot iron shoes, creepy Princey-ewws (so much for Prince Charming!), magic mirrors, sleeping death, glass coffins, and, inexplicably, one "happily ever after!?" This tale, the Brothers Grimms' "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" or "Snowdrop," is read in a soft voice and set to some light and soft background music. I do hope you enjoy the this evening's classic (and very grim) fairytale!

An Old Fairytale of Trickery, Trolls, and Twists: The Witch in the Stone Boat

Once upon a time there was a Prince who needed to find a Princess to wed. Yes, we know this tale! BUT there is a twist! He does NOT have to rescue her from a curse or a dragon, or any such thing... it's much, much worse! In tonight's fairytale reading, we follow Prince Sigurd on his little mission to find a beautiful bride, watch as they make a little family, and then, in anguish, bemoan his untimely slumber as she is snatched up by a witch in a stone boat, who tricks the poor now-king into believing she is her! Right! Not confusing. Also, the witch sends the poor queen off to marry the witch's brother, a troll? Instead of accept this fate, the tricky queen has a plan to not only see her son again, but maybe get rescued, too! It's not the best plan and it leaves a lot to chance, but what are you going to do? If ONLY those nerdy chess players would have reported their findings to the king sooner. Alas! Join me for tonight's fairy tale, "The Witch in the Stone Boat," which is read in a soft voice and set to some light and soft background music. I do hope you enjoy the this evening's Icelandic fairytale story!

A Very Weird Fairytale: Prince Lindworm

Rose petals, "good" witches, queens, princes, serpents, serpent princes, all this and SO MUCH MORE await us in tonight's Scandinavian fairytale "Prince Lindworm!" We follow one queen, desperate for a child, as she gets help from a cool witchy woman, and then DOES THE OPPOSITE OF THE WOMAN'S SUGGESTION. She is then, of course, left to suffer the consequences of a healthy baby... and a serpent? This serpent goes un-addressed until the prince wants to find a bride. The Lindworm blocks EVERY road out of town, saying "He gets to find a bride first!" Like, three times? That's not fair! Anyway, fairytales. Finally, he is married to a woman who cares more for her own skin that his, and wow is that a good thing! Witchy woman is back with more advice for this lady, who actually follows it (ummm weird as it is? Whips? Hey now!) and saves her life... and the Prince Snake! This tale, "Prince Lindworm," is read in a soft voice with light chatter, and set to some light and soft background music. I do hope you enjoy the this evening's short story.

A Chilling Tale: The Oval Portrait (Edgar Allan Poe)

Good Evening Friends, Fiends, and Night Owl Supremes! Got a lot on your mind lately? Let's... try to calm it with this lonely, wistful, and slightly chilling short Poe story. I suppose it's not lonely as we are in it together, but the same cannot be said for the Woman who sat for this particular portrait. She sat, so close, yet so far, from her love, and though he looked at her for hours, days, weeks... he never saw her. A true tragedy! Is his masterpiece painting haunted? Does her ghost or spirit linger between worlds? This short ghost story, "The Oval Portrait" by Edgar Allan Poe, is read in a soft voice and set to some eerie and soft background music. I do hope you enjoy the this evening's spookier short story!
