  She was basically put in stasis and then the prince came along with the key to unlock her stasis.

  Correct me if I’m wrong but I don’t think she was killed. Just in a deep sleep or something. >
  
  Basically in coma, then prince came he knew CPR. >
  
  No, he basically said “hey there’s a girl in a coffin… WAIT YOU’RE PUTTING HER WHERE!?!
  Look, here’s some money, take her to my castle! I can use her as a centerpiece to my…bedroom…
  Listen I got the rights to a mine full of ore and gems, I’ll give you exclusive rights if you take her to my place… DONT DRO- oh good it didn’t brea-OH SHIT SHES ALIVE!” >
  
  Wait, is that how the original story goes? >
  
  Yes. 
  German fairy tales are fucked up.
  I'm German. I know. >
  
  I always trust mad music nerds. They make up at least 3/4 of my friend group >
  
  A zombie isn't just someone who died and came back to life. This is like saying a bagel is a donut just because they're both round with a hole in the middle. >
  
  That's right, you're only a zombie if you're hideous. >

  What if the prince was a paladin and resurrected her instead. >
  
  Not sure if I remember it correctly, but I think the apple fell out of her mouth when the prince kissed her? Not 100% sure but that is what I vaguely remember. >
  
  almost - it fell out when the dwarves dropped the casket because they tripped. sleeping beauty was the one who got kissed awake >
  
  Sleeping Beauty is based on a story where a married king finds a girl asleep and can’t wake her, so rapes her instead.
  The story is called The Sun, the Moon, and Talia, written, or at the least collected and composed, by the Italian poet Giambattista Basile. It was published in 1634 in his “Pentamerone” collection of fairy tales, which also includes the first known version of Cinderella and Rapunzel, and includes a version of Puss in Boots. >
  
  Wow >
  
  The evil queen used magic to create the Apple that made her go to sleep and stay asleep, no one ever said the queen killed Snow White.. >
  
  Theres a great short story called "Snow Glass Apples" by Neil Gaiman. Its a retelling of the Snow White story from the Evil Queens perspective. And its not dissimilar in thought process. >
  
  Is that the one where she’s a vampire? >
  
  Pretty much. And the Prince is a necrophiliac >
  
  Fun fact. Jesus was a zombie too. 
  Second fun fact. There’s a halfway decent song about it called “Jesus was a zombie” >
  
  Well, the zombie apocalypse isn't near yet, but Snow White is definitely a survivor! >
  
  My wife and I had this same discussion about Harry Potter yesterday. According to folklore, Zombies are “reanimated”.  I am not sure if there is a great definition for this, but I wouldn’t say by the spirit of the word, she wouldn’t be considered a Zombie >
  
  Nah, the girl was already a vampire. 
  I think it goes:
  "Skin, white as snow. Lips, red with blood" >
  
  She's not a zombie.  The prince is a paladin with healing spells. >
  
  Heart never stopped, brain kept getting oxygen. She was in a magically-induced coma, not dead. >
  
  Snow white was not woken up by a kiss.
  The evil queen disguised herself as an old woman and gave her a poisonous apple that she choked on, falling into a deep sleep.
  (Important part: The famous red apple was half red half green. The queen prooved to her that the apple was okay to eat by biting into the side that wasn't dipped into the red poison.)
  When the prince arrived, the dwarves had already put her into a glass coffin so the prince, griefstricken, joins the funeral procession.
  The dwarves tripped and dropped the coffin.
  The shaking dislodged the piece of apple from her throat since she hadn't properly swallowed it, and she survived.
  Sleeping beauty was the one woken up by a kiss, Snow White was just lucky.
  Fun fact! The evil queen attempted to assassinate her like two more times before the apple stunt and she always survived through dumb luck (One time being through a super tight corset, what's it with this fairy tale and choking imagery??)
  Oh, also, she didn't die in the first place because the hunter tasked with killing her after bringing her to the forest felt sorry for her and instead killed a boar, bringing its heart to the queen as proof that the princess had died. >
  
  There was. Film theory that said the coal dust from the dwarves mines actually is what saved her the Prince just happened to show up right as she came out of a coma. >
  
  So coming back to life after death makes you a zombie?  So vampires are zombies? >
  
  Both are different types of undead. >
  
  UNLESS she was restored with a True Resurrection spell. Which if so, then what was in that kiss? Legendary lip gloss? >
  
  She was sleeping when the much older Prince Raped her and got her Pregnant without her Consent.
  edit
  Mixed up stories, I am sorry. DV away I accept my fate >
  
  There is someone who know the deeper lore of fairytales, like that. Are you german? >
  
  No, just into making people upset. >
  
  Why upsetting? Germans thought of an moral while writing these, to learn from an exaggerated example. >
  
  I enjoy upsetting people. This is about me, not anyone else. >
  
  I lost the plot. I was irritated at first cause you wasn't the commentator I ask, but guessed you mean the commentator was into upsetting people with the version of a more traditional snow white. And now you tell me you are into upsetting people and nothing has to do with the post, the first comment in this row or my comment? Why? >
  
  Dude, what? The evil queen in snow white was a cannibal. She wanted to eat the heart and liver of snow white. 
  Sleeping beauty was raped awake..
  I like to use information to make people upset. 
  These two things aren't mutually inclusive. >
  
  Then still your first two comments were out of place, no wonder I lost the plot >
  
  The other guy and I got our Grimm's messed up. It's not my fault you're u/Dumbass1312 >
  
  Not my fault you answered questions from a different convo >
  
  What still gets me is the disparity in age between Snow White and the Prince >
  
  Was it prince andrew? >
