The stories are, but not the characters as drawn by Disney, it’s like classic music, you can use the Music commercially (given that you Perform I), but you can’t use a performance from someone else.
Same with classic stories, you can make your own snow white story, but you can’t use snow white as performed by Disney (yet)
The Disney artwork would be copyright and probably some of the story that is unique to Disney’s adaptation, but the characters themselves are fair game.
Snow White and the seven dwarves are 200 years old and already in the public domain.

Wouldn’t Disney harass somebody if they were try to make it tho? It would look too much like theirs?

Just because something is legal and fair game doesn’t mean that corpo trash would harass people over it
Your point would hit harder if Snow White hadn’t been adapted a stupid amount of times after Disney’s movie.
My point is made by Disney’s prior conduct ;)
