The VERY Messed Up Origins of Bluebeard | Fables Explained - Jon Solo

Reminds me of susanna's Seven Husbands by Ruskin Bond

My biggest question is why didnt she just wash the key off?

Anybody else click on this because of the show "YOU?"

I watched this because someone made a short indy horror game based off this.

Moral of the story: weak women get victimized by strong men and can only get saved by strong men.

End of.

Honestly i don't think he should've gave her the keys anyway.

Love your videos. You've done your homework. And Gunther he's licking your hand! Sweet!

Most stories you talk about have very messed up origins.

You should explore Bartok's one act opera (libretto by Balasz). It is strange and a work of pure genius.

I thought one of the stories was about a pirate

I'm new, great content.. this was morbid, educational, & captivating.. I like it.

The amount of times that he mentioned the Holographic Dark Charizard though

We had to buy and read a story book for our English class in middle school, this was the story I randomly bought from the stationery store 😫

This has the potential to be a really interesting Horror film

Object of the story: create a moral to make women submissive. So they never get curious and ask questions or oppose.

I just recent watched the 1944 film Bluebeard, with John Carradine.

Me, an obvious genius, don't get caught??? 😅

That’s my great x7 grandp

As a kid I had Bluebeard on DVD as a part of Grimms tales collection or something. It traumatised me and my siblings 😂

The first time I heard of Bluebeard like AT ALL was via Looney Tunes. A mouse Porky Pig kept trying to get rid of dressed as him after hearing a radio announcement, and got fed like a king. Until another announcement came through describing the guy. Only for the real Bluebeard to somehow end up in Porky's house.

From what I can remember, Blue Beard was supposed to have been the antagonist originally in Disney's The Haunted Mansion, but they ended up scraping the idea because it was too dark.

Curiosity kills the cat 😌

Sounds like entrapment. Bluebeard said he was going on a trip, gave her the key to a forbidden room and when she finally opened the room he comes back to kill her.

The first time I heard of the Bluebeard story was in a chapter of Stephen King's The Shining . The son, Danny, is recalling the story that his father told him because he's scared while exploring. He was told to stay away from a specific room and he steals the key to look in anyway.

The Grimms' version of Mr. Fox is called The Robber Bridegroom. (But I like the repeated phrase in the British version, "It is not so, it was not so, and God forbid it should be so!" This version of the story must have been around before 1612--that phrase is referenced in Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing.)

I want Gunther SOOOOOOOOOO BAD!

Gunther is so cute.
I’ve heard three different versions of the story: Blue Beard, Fitcher’s Bird, and The Robber Bridegroom.

moral: that guy who's really nice and seems like he's got it all but seems like he can't hold onto a girlfriend? yeah that's for a reason, stay far away

I dunno, I'd probably critique his murder methods and give him pointers.

Listen. If you want his wealth, you *participate*.

In case anybody wants to know what the forbidden fruit was. It was not an apple or a fig. It was knowledge. It is all in the details of the story that most people seem to miss.

I didn't read the stories of Perrault. A few months ago, I got a hold of a translated copy of the original Grimm's Brothers Tales. This story was in there. Not sure how many similarities between the two? They seem very similar. Lesson to be learned, don't do what you are warned against there may be dire consequences!

Morals of the story: Don't give your victim time to pray. Don't betray your husband. Don't marry a man with blue hair.

The truly ironic and honestly, sickening thing about this story was that is was supposed to teach young girls to always listen to their husbands. When I was told this story as a little girl, the moral of the story was that little wives were much too curious for their own good.

I also was told a lot of versions that hinted at Henry the VIIII.

Mostly, nobody cared about Bluebeard’s murders and cared more about how women weren’t obedient enough.

Kinda sounds like Jack the ripper

Moral curiosity leads to regret and terrible consequences also don’t break your promises.

Bro when i was 6 my older sister read me this story and it was kinda traumatizing but now im good.

I remember a similar story that had a wizard and three sisters but instead of the key he gave each girl an egg to keep safe. The older two sisters carried the eggs with them when looking around the house and dropped them straining the eggs with blood. The youngest put her egg in a safe place before looking around the house.

I came here because I am curious about the title of Le sserafim's new song. I'm familiar with Eve and Psyche, but not the bluebeard's wife. But now I know. Thank you.

This story is so engraved in my mind that I could swear I have seen the movie of it. Especially the scene when she is in the tower waiting for her brothers.

As a French child I knew this story well. We even studied it at school. I was terrified by this story. "Barbe Bleue" those words were enough..

Kpop group le sserfim song brought me here. Song titled "eve, psyche and bluebeards wife"

In old European militaries, commissioned officers were upper class soldiers seperate from the commoner enlisted soldiers. The officers had to buy their next rank promotion often.

There was a weird Grim's tale that echoed the curiosity lesson very similarly but was strangly flipped in all the details. Instead of a young woman being married, it was a little girl who's family couldn't afford to care for her. Instead of a weird man with an ugly beard in his woods mansion, it was a litteral angel and heaven. Instead of going on a buisness trip and arriving home early, the angel left..for reasons..and came back exactly the day she was supposed to, 13. The number of doors was 13 in the Grim story but the 13th was not allowed to be opened. The girl opened one each day and found a different apostle behind it who bathed her in his glory. She got bored again on the 13th day and looked behind the Forbidden door. Instead of murdered wives and blood staining the key, she was met with God's divine fire that she touched with her finger. This branded her finger gold which caused her immediate guilt. She closed the door but the angel upon return found her finger to be gold. I believe she was abandoned to toil on earth under physical dureess for some years as a result. If I remember correctly, she was left in the middle of a Grove of desnly compacted trees where she only had the few acorns to eat and dead leaves to keep her warm. In the end, she was found and rescued by a handsome prince or something...her mortal toiling paying her debt of disloyalty to her divine adopted mother and her getting to live happily ever after. It's weird how many beats this hits compared to Bluebeard..but the exact opposite.

She basically bought them the title of captain.. a lot of higher militant postions used to be bought by prestigious families, over earned through service.

I'm here from the song Eve, Psyche, and Bluebeard's Wife. Since I already know the Eve and Psyche story, in learning about this

I READ THIS STORY AS A 7 year old and I haven’t been able to hunt it down since, never knew what it was called but I pull it out of my pocket every now and then😂😂😭😭😭😭😂
