Princess Snow White fell into a coma on November 5, 2022, in Lohr, Bavaria, Germany outside of the Seven Dwarfs cottage after biting a poisoned apple given by the Evil Queen in hopes of killing the fairest of the land.

Detective Felix on the case discovered that the Queen created a magical apple in hopes to trick the princess into eating it and poison her. White immediately dropped cold after she barely took a bite of the red apple.

The Queen disguised herself as an old peddler woman so White would not recognize her and headed to the Seven Dwarfs cottage where the princess resided. The princess, being polite, opened the door to the stranger. The Queen told her the apple would grant her a wish.

The dwarfs found White in the coma after coming back from a day of mining, and they went to find Prince Ferdinand to get help. Doc, one of the Seven Dwarfs, said, “She appears to be in a Sleeping Death, a terrible curse the Queen put on her. She is going to pay for hurting our princess.”

White is the stepdaughter of the Evil Queen, and the Queen has always been jealous of her beautiful appearance. After hearing that Snow White was the fairest of the land, the Evil Queen planned to kill her in order to become the fairest of them all.

The villagers are awaiting the arrival of the gallant Prince Ferdinand in hopes that love’s first kiss can save the princess. Ida, the town baker, states, “I hope the prince can wake Snow White from her deep sleep. It looks like he’s become very infatuated with the princess.”

Grumpy explained, “We overheard Snow White talking about how she missed this prince, so he must be the one that could save her. Young love…Yuck!”
