The Dark Side of Disney: The Tale Behind the Fairytales, Part 3

When I originally thought of telling you all about the real stories behind the Disney-fied versions of fairytales, I had no idea what you all would think. I am happy to say that you loved hearing the original versions, as much as I loved telling them to you.

The tales behind the Disney versions are full of darkness and death. They give us a view of the ideologies and biases of the times that they were written, but sometimes the bias is actually on Disney’s part.

Even though Disney wants us to think that all women are delicate, but strong princesses - that is not the truth. They want us to think that all men are valiant, but they are not. Good and evil are not as black and white as Disney makes things out to be. Not everyone lives happily ever after in a castle with their true loves.

Serial Killers Who Were Never Caught

In today’s society, many serial killers are thought about as terrifying monsters. Many try to dissect a serial killer’s actions to attempt to figure out why they did what they did. The thing that is terrifying though is the fact that many serial killers were never caught. It is horrifying to think that these people may be still out there, and could still be active. What if they are someone we know?

As a heads up my dear listeners, today we will be talking about graphic murder scenes for both adults and children. We also will be speaking about assault, murder, graphic crime scenes, and sexual assault. Listener discretion is advised.
