I can tell you Evil Queen you’re not the fairest one of all, but you are one of the most iconic villains Disney has ever brought to life. The Evil Queen’s transformations from calm, hateful ruler to mad, vengeful Hag is a dramatic metamorphosis which has clutched the hearts of millions of people. Since her creation, she has become a true force of darkness in Disney Parks and the show Fantasmic while we have also learned versions of her backstory in Once Upon A Time and Serena Valentino’s novel Fairest of All: A Tale of the Wicked Queen. The Evil Queen is a fantastic character who deserves to be explored.

Um, wouldn't it have been quicker and easier to just use a potion or spell to make yourself the fairest one of all?

[@DrawciaGleam02]

That's a good point.

[@Cenindo]

Or make the same "old hag" potion and slip it to SNOW WHITE instead! The "fairest one in the land" question would be settled instantly.

[@JosinDroplet]

Do realize its not that easy...

[@lisag.4054]

I feel like it could have been that simple, but she had been overcome by her jealousy. So it was a combo of her wanting to be the fairest, & her rage towards Snow White. She felt the need to harm Snow White.

[@nikweikel7636]

I would guess she already did. But the potion could only change her outward appearance.

No one played the Evil Queen Better than Lana Parilla in the first season of Once Upon a Time! What she did with the Evil Queen was truly amazing! She by far is my Favorite Evil Queen. In that version she hated Snow White because as a child Snow White told a secret that got her True Love killed, which led to her marrying Snow White's father!!!! Now to answer your question on how she learned her magic...the Slave in the Mirror of course!!!!! She was basically in contact with another realm...he would have had all the knowledge on Sorcery and how to go about it in the natural realm!

Fatima Lakhani best video's on KZbin. Watch that you see the best actress there as evil queen

[@adamwalpole9399]

Regarding how she came across her magic powers. The "Fairest of them All" book gives a great story on how she came into her powers. Three relatives of the king convince (who turn out to be sister witches) a vulnerable Queen to turn to magic along with presenting her with the magic mirror. I love that, because the witches also appear in Serena's other books of other Disney characters.

[@cthonisprincess4011]

Yes, but the books are not canon. It's basically over-glorified fanfiction.

[@berrypie11]

I personally love the Serena Valentino book. It gave me a whole new perspective on the Evil Queen, since I never thought of her to be all that interesting of a villain. Now whenever I watch Snow White, I keep the book in mind, and it helps me to see the Queen as a much more dimensional character. I also like the way you pointed out how the Queen is meant to be the opposite of Snow White's pure, sweet nature. I never really thought of that before.

[@IsaacCarlson]

I'm glad I explained her well and brought up some new perspectives. Thanks for watching!

[@treblemaker7353]

what was evil queen like as a child was she kind hearted like snow white did she go through a dark past that had something to do with her becoming so evil and cruel?

[@josephyml]

that's what happened in once upon a time. she had an evil, controlling mother, and had a secret boyfriend. snow white told her mother about her boyfriend, and he was killed. from then on, the queen vowed revenge against snow white

[@Cllocopine]

Yeah, like he said in the video, the book 'fairest of them all' and in the TV show 'Once upon a Time' the queen has had a really dark past which led to her doing what she did. I haven't read the book but in 'Once Upon a Time' her cruel and wicked mother always wanted her to become just like her, killed her fiance and told her to blame Snow White for it, pushing her buttons and manipulating her, this however fails and the Queen, locks her mother in another realm, but then as Rumpelstiltskin teaches her magic he also manipulates her and he destroys the last bit of hope she had that she would ever be happy, an this is when she truly becomes evil, however about 35 years later she finds redemption and slowly changes into the better.

[@treblemaker7353]

I have never watched once upon a time before it sounds cool and have not read the farest of them all book yet

[@WerewolfStarfire]

The evil queen's transformation creeped the hell out of me out as a kid. It still gives me chills to this day!

[@TheGoobieDoober]

I like how The Land of Stories books portray the Queen. Basically, there was this evil fairy that trapped her true love in a mirror. She found out that the longer the guy was in there, the more he forgot about his past and self. So, in order to retain the memory of her true love while she tried to find a way to free him, she used all sorts of potions and stuff to keep herself looking the way she did when they fell in love. (I should also point out that the same evil fairy let the Queen have a literal heart of stone in order to cope with her loss, so not all bad here. She also had an array of magic mirrors, there was just one that her love was trapped in.). However, this wouldn't last long. Snow White somehow got seen by the mirror, and due to the Queen aging, Snow looked more like her when she was younger. The Queen finds out about this, and becomes enraged. So, Snow was to be killed, but 0 attempts worked, and the Queen eventually had to flee. However, she was caught and put into the dungeon. The Queen was told that the mirror was broken, and begins grieving, even though she has a literal heart of stone. The former Queen then finds that the mirror hasn't been broken, and she then retreats to an abandoned castle to continue her work. There was this spell that granted a wish to whoever collected certain objects. The spell could only be used twice, and it had already been used once. She would use that spell to free her one true love. It was too late by then, and the guy lost so much of himself that he was unable to live. The Queen, heartbroken, weeps with the corpse of the one she loved in her arms, and then gets trapped in the mirror herself when it falls on her. Her fate is to be trapped there and forget everything while being oblivious to the fact that her true love is dead. I don't know how, but it's been two years without reading the book, and I somehow remember this almost perfectly.

[@davidmockbro]

I love the psychology behind Snow White, it's like Brave but more nuanced.

[@hayleystahl3794]

Gosh, I've never actually realized how eerie the story of the evil queen is. She is very, very dark and rather... Scary.

[@tombraver6449]

Queen: "Magic mirror on the wall, who is the fairest one of all?" Magic Mirror: "That would be Two Face." Queen: "Two-who the hell is Two Face?!" Magic Mirror: "He flips a coin. 50/50. A fair chance in every situation. Therefore he is the fairest one of-" Queen: "No you imbecile! Who is the prettiest?!" Magic Mirror: "The pettiest one of all is Jar Jar Binks of the galaxy far far-" Queen: "NOT THE PETTIEST-Jesus Christ......THE MOST BEAUTIFUL ONE OF ALL?!?!" Magic Mirror: "The most beautiful one of all is Bob Ross." Queen: "Who....Is...Bob..ROSS?!" Magic Mirror: *Morphs into The Joy of Painting* "Hi. I'm Bob Ross...And today we are going to be painting the evil witches castle up on the hill." Queen: *clenches fist*

[@keithrobinson264]

The Evil Queen is the most legendary of all the Disney villains. I am not ashamed to say that her transformation scene absolutely terrified me as a kid. However I always wonder how is it that she was magical powers. the Evil Queen is a villain lead by pure vanity but she already was power, and wealth. I looked over one of your previous video about fairy godmothers and I think that Spirit of the Mirror is the one that granted her magic, similar to how Genie made Jafar an all-powerful sorcerer or at least tutored her in the dark magic. Could the Spirit in the mirror be similar to the Genie or some other form of trapped magical creature. Great Vid dude, you never disappoint, Awesome.

[@whiskeysierra8285]

Charlize Theron's portrayal of Queen Ravenna has become one of the best portrayals of the Evil Queen. Cold, calculating, and unapologetic - She grew up in a poor village, begging for scraps with her family just to survive. Just before her mother was killed by the king's forces upon ravaging the village, her mother bestowed upon Ravenna great power that revolved around her beauty. Should another more beautiful than her arise, she would lose all her powers. Which is why she was so obsessed with being the fairest of them all - to keep her power and to fuel her hatred towards Kings and men for killing her family.

[@songbirdrebel5895]

This is really good. But I was wondering if it's possible to do a video in regards to the spirit of the Evil Queen's Magic Mirror. I've always wondered on the spirit's identity and how the spirit got into the mirror in the first place (or if he has always been in the mirror ). I apologize if it's too much trouble, and thank you so much in advance. With sincere regards, ~Songbird Rebel

[@IsaacCarlson]

I really want to do this! I'm very interested in the Magic Mirror! Thanks for watching!

[@brettkimura]

@ Wotso Videos, Can you please do the Magic Mirror and how the masked man came to be?

[@bluelocimon]

There´s also the Once Upon a Time version. I know they changed a lot of stories, but still, i really love that version of the Evil Queen. In that show, the Magic Mirror was a genie, the King (Snow White father) found the lamp and his two first wishes were " i wish the genie to be free" and "i wish that the genie has the third wish" because the king said that he had all that he can wish for. Then he invited the genie to the palace and he fall in love with Regina (the Evil Queen) and she fool him to help her kill the King and told him she would run away with him, but it really was to frame him of the murder. So then he used the last wish saying "i wish to be able to be by your side and look at your face forever" but because as always the genie wishes don´t always work as you want them to, the magic of the lamp ended up sealing him in the mirror.

[@a_d7366]

My favorite version is the one from Once Upon A Time Lana portrayed young evil and ring Regina/Evil Queen so well and the writers gave her a very sympathetic backstory on how and why she became evil. And also her struggle and way to redemption and I was so glad in the end when she became queen of all the realms

[@leiaclark8388]

I think the Evil Queen learned magic in order to become beautiful and preserve her beauty. In the old days when dowries were a thing, to marry a rich husband you needed a big dowry, or a small dowry and beauty. Women who were plain but married to rich husbands would often find themselves being cheated on. The husband would find a pretty tavern wench or hire an attractive scullery maid, and devote his romantic energy to her instead of his wife. Sacrificing your soul and doing horrible things for beauty is a very recurrent theme, and even has real historical examples such as Lady Elizabeth Bathory

[@lauranaspeer5008]

[@Puppetgirl93]

In the original Grimms Fairy Tale from 1812, The evil queen is actually Snow White’a biological mother, this was changed to stepmother in a later edition in 1819 explaining Snow White’s mother died in childbirth and her father remarrying- The reason why the Grimm Brothers changed it was because they felt it wasn’t a good image at the time of a mother attempting to kill her own child, and mothers were seen as sacred back then, the same occurred to Hansel and Gretel in which the original first edition story had them having a wicked mother but in later editions this was changed to stepmother

[@nanafa370]

Doesn't fairest mean the palest? So it makes sense that snow white is the fairest. Snow white skin. Maybe the magic mirror took it too literally. Whilst the evil queen took being fair as being beautiful and the magic mirror took it as pale. Is that possible.

[@MichaelJacksonFan001]

I personally think that the Evil Queen was taught by an evil wizard to use her dark powers which she was born with.

[@Animationlover17]

The evil queen was one of my favourite Disney villains ever! Mostly because I believe that it is great the first Disney villain, who is a woman that is very strong, crafty and determined to be the best. And I always had this fanfiction or head canon idea to her past, that had lend to being who she is today. I always thought a young age Grimhilde was insecure I was not given a lot of love and attention, and was treated poorly by her parents which made her very sad and lonely. One day she came across enchanted mirror that sensed that she was insecurity and sadness. I had thought that maybe the mirror was cursed, and it poisoned her mind by giving her what she wanted but also corrupted her. The mirror praised her and gave her confidence and self admiration but in a very shallow way. While the mirror gave her the love and attention that she's always wanted it also brought out her insanity. I thought maybe she was a young princess Who later became dark, cruel and vain.

[@melis2645]

What was great was also the music themes and songs they used in Snow White and other classic Disney movies like Cinderella. So magical and tense

Young man, I am impressed with your video, especially with your final challenge and question. Out of curiosity, I would like to know how she acquired such occult and esoteric knowledge. She has such a variety of apparatuses and a fairly extensive collection of books.

[@stephw1702]

One of my mom's favorite stories to tell is how when I was very young she took me to a local theater which was showing Disney's Snow White. I was fine until the Queen fell off the cliff, at which point I became inconsolable and needed taken out of the theater. Mom was confused and after asked why I was so upset; I told her it was because unlike Snow White, the Queen was really dead.

[@gabrieladerre2862]

When I was a kid, and they did a re-release of Snow White, I always thought that the evil queen was unarguably more beautiful than Snow White. However, Snow White was also quite lovely. And her kindness and warmth is what made the Magic Mirror see her as being more beautiful. At least that was, and is, my take on it.

[@LittleKittyCat]

I think you're right.

[@daniellevinson6975]

Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarves is very rich on a symbolic level. As Isaac mentions here, Snow White and her stepmother are antithetical archetypes. This abundance of symbolism largely explains why Disney's first animated movie has remained so thoroughly beloved.

[@daniellevinson6975]

The symbolism doesn't stop with the opposing archetypes represented by the villain and protagonist. Consider the potion... The Queen's disguise symbolizes her inner monstrosity (as everyone already knows). Since the Queen only took on her new appearance *after* she drank the potion, we can regard said potion as a symbol of how she became so wicked. It's no accident that the potion's color looks toxic! (Even the colors of the ingredients looked toxic.)

[@daniellevinson6975]

I might add that the face in the mirror is composite of symbols all on its own. From the cheekbones down, it's a nauseated green, symbolizing how the Queen poisons herself emotionally and spiritually. Note the empty eye sockets, too...

[@brettkimura]

@ Hi-Fi Dollie, Oooooh! YES!

[@IsaacCarlson]

I really want to do that! I was thinking about doing that soon, but the problem is that I think DuckTales will explain them. Maybe once we learn more about them in the show. I could just go for it before hand though. Thanks for watching!

[@chavezyunni]

Phenomenal job!👍

[@KLNII_]

THANK FINALLLLY KEEEP MAKING YOUR AMAZING VIDEOS

[@IsaacCarlson]

Will do!! Every Tuesday and Thursday! Thanks for watching!

[@sifraleeuwen2591]

Do it about the surnames of villans

[@rawrwonderland13]

evil queen Baddest of Them All or fairest of them all can you tell me in descriptions

[@JaakkoSan]

Yaasss! This was great ^^ Your videos are so great and I really like you voice :) Nice job. QOTD I think she was just born with it then started to gather magical knowledge and artifacts :)

[@IsaacCarlson]

I'm glad you liked it! Thank you! I like that explanation. I think it makes a lot of sense. Thanks for watching!

[@Jocelyn_Jade]

It would have been cool to keep her as Snow White’s biological mother. There are many mothers out there who end up getting super jealous and hateful towards their daughters. I’ve seen it…

[@cartercahoon3893]

Please do queen of hearts

[@AR-hk8qt]

I loved the story of 'Once upon a time', which focused on relatable realistic story of evil people

[@mostar1219]

It's funny how her method of getting closer to being fairest in the land involved transformation from a potion that caused her to get farther away from being fairest in the land

[@abreenaS]

If you want more Evil Queen in real life version, go watch Fatima Lakhani's youtube channel. Fatima often went on to Disneyland and meet lots of disney characters & record it. Recently the Evil Queen went viral because of how terrific the cast-member doing her improv as the Evil Queen. She has a pair of big bright blue eyes, so much sassiness, dont feel any guilty to drag the visitors at all. In this movie, the Evil Queen is so horrific to be near her presence but unlike the one in Disneyland. People can't get enough of her & so lovely but mean at the same time. She had done a terrific acting skills. You guys should watch her❤

[@Tionaintown876]

She is AMAZING!!!

[@abreenaS]

@@Tionaintown876 right? I keep replay all of her videos! Kuddos to her!

[@flynnryan]

interesting side note, the old comic page shown here holds to the "mirror, Mirror..." version of the invocation spell that most people identify with rather than the "MAGIC mirror..." that seems the "current" official line. This discrepancy is attributed to the "Mandela Effect."

[@universeofrage]

the thing is - in the original fairytale it's always "mirror mirror", only Disney changed it to "Magic mirror" for whatever reason, I'm guessing it sounded more dramatic? idk

[@darknada3499]

I'm the 263 like:") Wow,good story for a great villain good job wotso videos

[@viking132eamon]

Brilliant video! Would really love to see an Yzma one

[@jacobdehaan4114]

You’re good at this

[@rolyngeorges7315]

I think she's a sorceress. Or even better a demon from the underworld.

[@user-eg6vc6qh8u]

Regina the evil queen!

[@mawvee]

I’ve always loved Evil Queen when I was a kid too such classy villain 😍

[@mathewowuor3922]

i loved this video and her story in the LAND OF STORIES

[@hannahmiller09]

Here is my answer it the question. The evil queen was once a fairy godmother who turned evil and power hungry at some point in her life. I say this because in on of your other videos you said she was gifted with the magic mirror by a fairy godmother, but if she was her own fairy godmother and used the mirror and her magic for dark purposes.

[@shrinkingviolet1953]

I'm here because I took a "what Disney character are you" quiz and got the evil queen.

[@aleczanny1797]

I love the Evil Queen, Ursula, Maleficent and now, Cruella❤️

[@laura8512]

Very well narrated!

[@maryfreebed9886]

My thoughts: the Evil Queen really is Snow White's mother, not stepmother, as awful as she is. The family resemblance is very, very strong, and Snow White innocently does magic at various points in the movie, although she's clearly not even trying to do it, nor is she aware that's what it is. As a queen, she will be a witch no less powerful than her mother, but with a sweet and kindly temperament, and the Fairy Godmother is in fact Snow White as an old crone. Calling her a "fairy godmother" is in fact a euphemism, because one does not accuse a queen of witchcraft.

[@nicoleackerman205]

The original fairy tale not in Disney version or later editions she was her biological mother.

[@oshershimon1715]

I think that the skeleton in her castle is the king #NotificationSquad

[@ManBehindtheCameraOriginal]

Osher Shimon Yes your right I think it is snow whites father the king I quite agree with you.

[@bigbaby8087]

Osher Shimon I've always said! Also if you pay attention she has more than one skeleton! She killed the king and her huntsman! I also think Lady Tremaine killed Cinderella's father.

[@IsaacCarlson]

Very possible! That would make a lot of sense!! Thanks for watching!

[@tmobile9994]

Or the mom

[@machiavellimistress1167]

@@bigbaby8087 OMG Yeah!!! If Grimhilde'z bin ey'in' Snow White's dad fr long, so y nad!? Maybe she figured out a way to poison her mom n played the victim n seduced the King!? 😱!!!

[@seawolf6883]

there was another alternative to the story, but it involves the 7 dwarves being replaced with 7 Bandits. in the movie Snow White: a tale of terror, staring Sigourney Weaver as the evil queen. I actually enjoyed this version personally, because Snow was more expected to defend herself, and didn't fall for a handsome prince, but rather a scared and reluctant bandit who (if I remember correctly) had a hard time thinking he deserved love due to his ugly past and the scars he now bares due to said past.

[@ronnelechavez]

I think the Evil Queen is a queen regnant or a queen in her own right. If she was just a consort, Snow White would have been declared queen after her father's death whether the evil queen likes it or not. Also, those skeletons in her dungeons are likely the remains of beautiful maidens prettier than her before Snow White came.

[@lochness5524]

If that were the case, they must have been there for a long time for the flesh to have decomposed. Either that or it’s cartoon logic

[@ronnelechavez]

@@lochness5524 It's also possible that her father king was also evil like her and the skeletons in the dungeon belong to those who were executed during his time.

[@Royalbluerosesrule]

Can you please do Tridents story from The Little Mermaid????

[@jayvevo4365]

Do the wicked witch of the west full story

[@chauncybetts8355]

Funny Guy yassss

[@IsaacCarlson]

I think that'd be super cool. Thanks for watching!

[@packersfanforlife7903]

The Evil Queen as a little boy and even now was my ultimate Disney Villainess fantasy! There was always something about her haha!

[@Lynk365]

I think I know how the Evil Queen was thought magic because in once open a time she gets the sleeping death potion from Maleficent that she ends up using it on Show White and maybe she asked her for the sleeping death potion because she probably thought her magic.
