The Evil Queen, also called the Wicked Queen, is a fictional character
and the main antagonist of "Snow White", a German fairy tale recorded
by the Brothers Grimm; similar stories are also known to exist in
other countries. Other versions of the Queen appear in "Snow White"
derivative works, and the character has also become an archetype for
unrelated works of fiction.The Evil Queen is Snow White's evil and
vindictive stepmother who is obsessed with being "the fairest in the
land". The beautiful young princess Snow White evokes the Queen's
sense of envy, so the Queen designs a number of plans to kill Snow
White through the use of witchcraft. A driving force in the story is
the Queen's Magic Mirror. In the traditional resolution of the story,
the Queen is grotesquely executed for her crimes. The tale is meant as
a lesson for young children warning them against the dangers of
narcissism, pride, and hubris.The Evil Queen is Snow White's evil and

appear in subsequent adaptations and continuations of the fairy tale,
including novels and films. In these, the Queen is often re-imagined
and sometimes portrayed more sympathetically, such as being morally
conflicted or suffering from madness instead of being simply evil. In
some of the revisionist stories she has even been portrayed as an
antihero or a tragic hero. In some instances, she serves as the
protagonist of the story; one such particularly notable version is
Disney's, sometimes known as Queen Grimhilde. The Queen has also
become an archetype that inspired several characters featured in the
works that are not directly based on the original tale.The Evil Queen
is a very beautiful but proud and arrogant woman who is secretly
dabbling in dark arts. When the King's first wife, the Good Queen
passes away, Snow White's father marries again. The King's new and
second wife is very beautiful, but she is also a wicked and vain woman
who becomes the new and second Queen, and Snow White's stepmother. She
owns a magic mirror, which one day informs her that her young
stepdaughter Princess Snow White has surpassed her in beauty. Evil Queen Top Movies & Young Movies
