Fairy Tale Fix Fantastic Worlds Productions

This week we finally learn the term “cold reading” thanks to our amazing Faerie Overlord and good friend, Giselle! Kelsey reads from a book discovered in her Little Free Library, posing the timeless question: Why Mosquitoes Buzz in People’s Ears. Meanwhile, Abbie treats us to a cold reading of a tale from our favorite storyteller, Ruth Manning-Sanders, featuring The Princess in the Iron Tower.

This week we're joined by our longtime friend Caroline Donham! Caroline tells us her Red Riding Hood fix that she rewrote when she was little, and it's just as cute as you'd imagine. Then she tells us some effed up nursery rhymes, and Abbie reads an even more effed up Brother's Grimm tale, The Heavenly Wedding.

We’re into some 100% real faerie stuff for Irish Fairy Tale Month with Abbie tackling the Harp of Dagda and attempting to coherently describe the Tuatha De Danann. Then Kelsey brings it home with a story that left our jaws on the FLOOR MULTIPLE TIMES: Hudden, Dudden, and Donal O’Leary.

For our first episode of Irish fairy tale month, we’re joined by some incredibly special guests… Katrina and Geoff from The Fairy Tellers podcast! Strap in for this super-sized and hilarious episode where Geoff puts the fear of God into us with The Doom, and then Katrina takes us for a wild ride that literally none of us could have ever predicted with The Legend of Ballytowtas Castle, both by the illustrious Lady Jane Wilde.

This one is for the #VillainSympathizers out there so…us basically! Kelsey retells the African American folktale Lonna And Cat Woman (we’ll let you guess who we’re rooting for here), and Abbie relates the story of Greek Cinderella - the most unreliable narrator of all time.

We're back with another of Abbie & Kelsey’s favorites – it's random reading time! Abbie continues our journey into the Ivanverse with the worst Ivan yet in What Happened To Ivan by Ruth Manning-Sanders, and Kelsey reads a fun dog-saves-the-day story with RMS's Niassa and the Ogre.
