•.↳Disney Villains X Child Reader •. by Old_School_Fics

❕️ Based on the works of @ThisWasABet21 and @Turtleangel10❕️ As the title implies, this book contains preferences and scenarios for both Disney and Pixar's animated villains! Can be read as "Yandere", "Possessive" and/or "Parent Villains." The images used throughout the book were made by me, however, I have no idea of who made the original image used for the cover. If anyone knows who made it, please let me know! Also, none of the characters and such belong to me. This is just fanfiction after all. These are completely platonic if you couldn't already tell. Miss me with the creepy bullshit. ❕️Disclaimer: English is not my first language❕️

Contained here are the original versions of the fairytales you adore. However, the Grimm brothers weren't as kind to the characters as Disney. Beware that your dreams of a fairytale romance will be severely altered once you've read the true story. Happily-ever-afters aren't exactly a hope that is easily obtained. Sorry Cinderella.

Ever wondered what the stories of the villains were? Maybe not your everyday fairytale. Or your everyday love story. Read, and you'll find out.

In a storybook full of fairytales, it is hard to pick just one story. You could read about a heroic boy who slays a giant. Or about a witch who cursed a baby on her sixteenth birthday... But in Storybrooke, Maine, every fairytale is far from what we think we know. Did you know that the Evil Queen was Alice's sister? Alice from the Land of Wonder? Yes, well, the Evil Queen was her older sister. And did you know the Evil Queen had a child with a mere stable boy? She did. And she named her Giselle. But there is more to their stories than the words written on the paper. Find out more as you turn the page. Disclaimer: I do not own any rights, except for my OCs. All rights go to their respected credits of Disney and ABC Family, along with the creators of the show.

Twisted: A Rapunzel Story by NekoCharm98746

Just about everyone knows the classic German folktale (told in their different and respective languages) Rapunzel. Disney has even made a movie on Rapunzel called Tangled. Well, I'm going to put a gory spin on it, along with the baddies being good and vice versa. Warning: This story will not be for the weak-hearted. If you cannot stomach blood or wound descriptions, don't read this.

Maze Of Glass Slippers (A Cinderella Adaptation) COMPLETE by MiaMichelleDane

You've all heard the Cinderella story, probably seen most or even all of the films, but here's something with a little extra twist. The mistreated daughter. The horrid Stepmother and sisters. The Prince. A little bit of Magic. All before midnight. 15,000 word completed short story.

Fractured Fairytales by elphiegranger2508

An anthology of popular fairytales. With a Wicked Twist. All based around the ship: Gelphie (The stories are mostly based off the Brothers Grimm versions. Or whatever the original is. Not the Disney versions. And I don't own Wicked)

[ONGOING] Dream Desires: Sleeping Beauty Re-Telling by FlamingoCrown7

The famous story from the Disney film, in a little retelling as it really happened in-universe in Dream Desires.

An Ironic Twist Of Fate by GoddessofAllEvil

In need for a job, she enters Disneyland's staff as Princess Aurora, the Sleeping Beauty. But what an irony when she sees herself falling for the person Aurora should hate the most: Maleficent. [Disneyland Malora AU]
