166-Grimm Brothers: The Dark Forest

166-Grimm Brothers: The Dark Forest

By Jason Weiser, Carissa Weiser, Nextpod

Two (originally children's) tales that underscore the shocking brutality of the world in which these stories were told. The first one is that of three roommates: a sausage, a bird, and a mouse, who decide to mix things up for once. The second is the Robber Bridegroom, a story where a woman has to marry a man who horrifies her...and the lengths she'll go to in order to get out of it. 

The creature is the Roperite, a vengeful, narcissistic bird who just can't get over the Roadrunner's good luck.
