This finale is mind-blowing and not what I was expecting at all. Very dark turn!

The Little Mermaid does not get the happy ending you think! And she is faced with a terrible choice. Does she watch her beloved prince marry another? Or plunge a dagger into his heart to save her own soul? Wow... you won't believe how it turns out.

I gave a shout out to this podcast about the dark original fairytales Disney based their stories on https://open.spotify.com/show/5tcC6iGpNruz36JY74w1WO?si=98fbe6b1559f4851

By Hans Christian Andersen. Disney's The Little Mermaid was based on this story. How closely does it follow the original? Let's find out!
