In the original Pinocchio, Pinocchio kills his conscience Jim Cricket with a mallet because he tried to give the young lad some useful advice. later down into the story Pinocchio is nearly drowned, a pack of dogfish half-devoured him, and he comes across a fox and cat who steal his money and unsuccessfully tries to hang him.
What are some of the most surprising Disney movies or series with a dark backstory?
this should have a content warring 
im still a child 
Omg I know right
i think disney was just ruined for me…
Aww, no!! Disney is still as good
That’s what makes it so much fun.
i think that in rapanzel or wutever she gets pregnat or whatever and throws da baby out…
i forget where i learned this
So disney just copy’s others work and turn it into fantasy like when you search for how they were created, its more dark than before.
Disney is still dark because every single time they kill off someones parents. It’s like an omnipotent being really hates their princess to have parents just to give them more screen time.
Pretty much all of their movies are based off the Grimm brothers tales.
They freaking burned Snow whites StepMother legs until she died
I searched it up and it said that mother gothel cut Rapunzels hair, then pushes the prince out of the tower making him fall into a bush of berries which causes him to go blind Rapunzel ended up pregnant with twins and the prince roamed the town blind.
…ahhhhhhhhh waaaaaaaaaaaa
He heard her singing and they lived happily ever after
And the twins Diedstrong text
That’s not as bad as Cinderella, she made her bird friends pick her stepsisters eyeballs out truly sickening.
It was completely Justified. I would actually cut their leg off and feed to the street dogs
Or bring the guillotine
True, true but they basically gave themselves their own karma by cutting off their toes and heels so the shoe could fit.
wait what?
I forgot about that part, bunch of idiots.
