It is better not to read for the faint of heart.
The fairy tale is one of the main genres in folklore. With the help of fairy tales, ancient people passed on the wisdom of generations to each other and talked about the hidden. Over time, these stories were adapted for children to teach them kindness and light through the example of fictional characters and talking animals.
Everyone watched the New Year’s film “Morozko”. Viewers remember that in the finale Nastenka and Ivan get married, and Stepmother and Marfushka repent. However, the original fairy tale ended completely differently: this should not be shown to children.
After Nastenka is made happy with gifts, she and her stepsister are sent back to the forest. True, luck turns away from the girls – the fairy-tale spirit forgets about its former kindness. In the morning, both sisters are found dead near a pine tree. The stepmother does not mourn the loss of the girls for long, but instead plans what to do with her newly acquired wealth.
