Tale is a dark fairytale anthology where familiar stories are reimagined with a sinister twist. Each standalone episode strips away the sugarcoating, revealing the violence, betrayal, and human cost behind the myths we thought we knew - where happy endings are rare, and magic always comes at a price. Produced by OutWrd. Storytelling like you’ve never heard before; structured like a film, performed with the intimacy of an audiobook, and scored like a motion picture.
