Walking dwarves... as in the walking dead? That’s right! What could be more fun for all ages than a zombie fractured fairy tale?!
Thanks to some prompting from a conniving Magic Mirror, the vain queen poisons apples with a “special ingredient” (that just happens to be plutonium), leading to a kingdom-wide plague of zombie dwarves! Snow White and the Huntsman narrowly escape the dwarves, making Cinderella’s stepmother and stepsisters the first zombie fodder, blindsided as they’re dress shopping for the big ball. And Little Red Riding Hood never reaches Granny’s house, instead falling victim, too! It’s no surprise when the Three Little Pigs, who can’t even protect themselves from Big Bad Wolf, become meaty breakfast treats for the swarm of hungry undead. Even Cinderella’s cheery animal friends (portrayed with puppets) can’t escape!
As the zombie horde grows, the kingdom’s dwindling band of survivors — including Old MacDonald, Candy Witch, Hansel, and Gretel — convene at the castle. The queen realizes with horror what she has done, but she still wants the royal ball to continue so she can win the heart of the hunky Prince Brawny.
Will there be a happily ever after in this fairy tale? Thanks to alternate endings, the answer’s up to you!
