Greetings, fairy tale lovers! is back for another Halloween Vault!

Those of you who haven't met Dark Fairy Tales yet might be asking themselves how fairy tales and Halloween might fit together. Halloween is all about creepy creatures and haunted houses, whereas fairy tales feature princes on white horses, dazzling balls, magic, and happily ever afters.

Of course, we cannot argue for the truth of this, but we can change the happy ending in fairy tales that are well known to all.

It all depends on how you look at them.

One of them is the bad guy who turns happy ending fictions into a goose-bred universe, and the other is you, the pretty ordinary. When you read this detail, you notice that a red light shines on the ceiling. Your feet suddenly slide, all objects around you, including the seat you sit on, disappear, and you fall into a vortex.

Oh, whoopie doo!

You are now in this dark fairy tale with a dozen terrible castles and the ugly creatures that live inside those castles, with which you are not familiar with the plot, and that horrible character, too.

Tell us how you dealt with this strange and dark fairy tale!
