"If you'll be my sweetheart...I'll give you water clearer than clear."

Der Froschprinz

Where there's a curse there's a witch. While the witch could have picked something much worse than a frog, I'm sure the princess in this story is glad he wasn't a slug.

"She will prick herself with a spindle and fall down dead!"

"Take care you return before midnight."

Aschenputtel

A beloved classic, Cinderella is a story about hope and goodness. But the Brothers Grimm version may be different than the one you remember; for this one has bodily mutilation, a golden slipper, and no fairy godmother.
