Niche post about We Have Always Lived in the Castle by #shirleyjackson : I just read it and was struck by how many Disney princess movie tropes it contains, along with, you know, a little mass murder and mob violence. You've got two young sisters living in a "magical" house, doltish villagers, a blustering self-important male character, an animal sidekick, an eccentric elder, it's all there. I started picturing it animated in the style of Snow White or Beauty and the Beast.
