Most of the fairy tales you know and love have frightening threads woven through them. These dark stories have faded from view over the years, especially the collection of this famous pair of German folklorist brothers. Would you like to peer into the darkness with us and see what’s been hidden for such a long time? In this talk, we’ll explore deeply the fairy tales your parents flipped past in the books, discuss the cultural influences surrounding them, and analyze potential reasons they’ve fallen by the wayside. This session isn’t for kids. We’re talking about the stories Disney wouldn’t touch with a ten-foot magic wand.
