folktale

Witches from Venezuela, Ecuador and Mexico’s folktales are among the women represented.

“Shot out six of the seven suns that were scorching the earth and that’s why we only have one sun? Never mind. It’s a folktale.”

In the masterpieces that are "Folklore" and "Evermore," Swift uses folktales to weave in her storytelling, however, that changes in "The Anthology."

Lee, in his director’s notes, says he intended to weave “a modern folktale of the forgotten.”

But dead girls have long populated folktales about sleeping beauties and myths of goddesses traversing the underworld.
