Today's tale features a showdown with the devil (who has some surprising loopholes to prevent him from taking your soul), a very strong contender for the competitive title of "worst folk tale father", and a... well, a maiden who doesn't have any hands. Dive on into this week's story session!
Welcome to the dark, strange, hilarious world of The ShadowBear Story Sessions.
Each week host Zach Stewart digs into the dark, twisted, brutal original versions of the folk tales, fairy tales, myths, and legends that laid the foundation for all the movies, TV, and other stories we know and love today. These aren't the watered-down family-friendly fairy tales you know. These are the grisly originals in all their glory.
At the end of each episode I adapt the story into a guaranteed smash hit movie or TV show. Share your own adaptation ideas by tagging us on Twitter at https://twitter.com/ShadowBearStory or Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/The_ShadowBear_Story_Sessions/
