ASMR soft spoken and whisper reading of Beauty and the Beast by Jeanne Marie Leprince de Beaumont, 1756. Enjoy with headphones.


Beauty and the Beast is a tale as old as time, but this dark origin story is far different from the Disney version we have come to love. In Jeanne Marie Leprince de Beaumont's version, Beauty is a merchant's daughter and has five siblings. Her sisters are mean and arrogant because Beauty is the youngest, the most beautiful, and the most humble. Beauty's father falls on misfortune and realizes that all of their wealth is gone so he makes a dangerous trip and ends up at Beast's palace. He takes a rose upon leaving and Beast catches him and demands his death for his greed. The Beast and the merchant agree that one of the daughter's can take his place and Beauty ends up at the palace as prisoner. Eventually, she comes to love the Beast and it is her love that conquers the curse of his appearance.
