Peter Davies Hates Peter Pan
Peter reportedly called the character “that terrible masterpiece.” His son Ruthven and various other people believe that Peter was driven to become an alcoholic by all this unwanted fame and attention. Peter was the brother who appeared to be positive and successful, but sadly, he threw himself under a subway train in London in April 1960.
Barrie, on the other hand, died in 1937 of pneumonia. He generously gave the rights to all his Peter Pan works to the Great Ormond Street Hospital, a children’s hospital. To this day, the hospital continues to greatly benefit from owning the rights.
