The Sleeping Beauty in the Wood: A Dark Fairytale

Join me for the classic and bizarre "Sleeping Beauty in the Wood," and hopefully you will drift off to beautiful sleep as well! Disney's "Sleeping Beauty" is based off of this version of the story, but where it ends and everything is "Happily Ever After," this tale is just beginning! Get ready for Ogres, castle-hopping, deceit, snakes, and oh so much more in this evening's reading! Disney Princess Aurora had things on Easy Mode, with only Maleficent and a cursed spinning wheel to contend with! This tale, Charles Perrault's "Sleeping Beauty in the Wood," is read in a soft voice and set to some light and soft background music. I do hope you enjoy the this evening's fairy story.
