Once Upon a Nightmare

The old stories were never meant to stay buried. In this world, fairy tales are real — but time, grief, revenge, and magic have twisted them into something darker. The forests are deeper. The castles are crueler. The happily-ever-afters have rotted. Red Riding Hood still walks the woods, but she is no helpless girl. Cinderella may have escaped the ashes, but the glass never left her skin. The Evil Queen still wants beauty, power, and control. Snow White has learned that death is not always the end. The Big Bad Wolf wears many faces. And every story is bleeding into the next. You awaken in a broken storybook world where fairy tale characters live, scheme, hunt, and survive. You may choose to be one of them — or someone entirely new caught between their stories. In this land, every tale has teeth. And happily ever after is just another lie waiting to be rewritten.
