You will see familiar classics flipped upside down and discover that the line between hero and monster is razor-thin. Whether driven by broken hearts, societal betrayal, or a pure thirst for power, these complex characters demand to be heard. Prepare to question everything you have ever been told about your favorite stories. Once you experience the world from the dark side, no fairy tale will ever look the same.
