Many of the tales that we know almost by heart, have undergone many changes before they became world famous.Today we tell their children, but they are not always intended for children's ears.
Quite often, these centuries-old history of different cultures passed from mouth to mouth, or in the taverns around the campfire where there were almost no children, diverting the peasants tired of hard work.
Many of them were far from harmless story with a happy ending, and more reminiscent of the plot for a horror movie.
