You mean original.

Not really. Usually its just the Grimm version. There's no such thing as an "original" version to a folk tale. Or i suppose once there was but it was gone the second it was retold. That's the nature of oral tradition. There were countless retellings of the various fairy tales with different endings than the ones The Grimm Brothers went with in their books.

Well the stories wouldn't be as grim if they hadn't

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
